TIFF_Amiga

tiff.hwp
========

This plugin allows Hollywood to load and save images in the TIFF image format.

Usage is simple: Once this plugin has been installed, Hollywood will be able to
load *.tif images on the fly.

If you want to save images in the *.tif format, use one of the constants
#IMGFMT_TIFF,
#IMGFMT_TIFFJPEG, #IMGFMT_TIFFFLATE that this plugin makes available once
loaded. For
example:

SaveBrush(1, "test.tif", 0, #IMGFMT_TIFF)

Note that #IMGFMT_TIFF and #IMGFMT_TIFFFLATE both use lossless compression.
#IMGFMT_TIFFJPEG,
however, is lossy. You can use the "Quality" tag to set the compression level in
that case.

The TIFF format	supports alpha channel graphics. If you want to load a TIFF with
alpha channel, simply set the "LoadAlpha" field to TRUE. If you want to save a
brush
that has an alpha channel using #IMGFMT_TIFF, the TIFF plugin will automatically
create a TIFF image with an alpha channel for you.
