- Hi Sam,
- I noticed in the README from libtiff that you would like to know about
- what people have done with libtiff, so I thought I would drop you a
- line.
- We have used libtiff to create and convert TIFF images of financial
- documents which are sent from and to major document processing systems
- in Sweden and Denmark.
- I would like to express my deep gratitude to yourself and Sillicon
- Graphics for making this excellent library available for public use.
- There is obviously a lot of work that has gone in to libtiff and the
- quality of the code and documentation is an example to others.
- One thing that libtiff did not do was work on a memory area rather than
- files. In my applications I had already read a TIFF or other format
- file in to memory and did not want to waste I/O writing it out again
- for libtiff's benefit. I therefore constructed a set of functions to
- pass up to TIFFClientOpen to simulate a file in memory. I have attached
- my mfs (memory file system) source code for you to use or junk, as you
- see fit. :-)
- Once again, thanks very much for making my life simpler.
- Best Regards,
- Mike Johnson.
