TIFFOpen opens a TIFF file whose
name is filename and returns a handle to be used in
subsequent calls to routines in libtiff. If the open
operation fails, then zero is returned. The mode
parameter specifies if the file is to be opened for reading
(&lsquo;&lsquo;r&rsquo;&rsquo;), writing
(&lsquo;&lsquo;w&rsquo;&rsquo;), or appending
(&lsquo;&lsquo;a&rsquo;&rsquo;) and, optionally, whether to
override certain default aspects of library operation (see
below). When a file is opened for appending, existing data
will not be touched; instead new data will be written as
additional subfiles. If an existing file is opened for
writing, all previous data is overwritten.

If a file is opened for reading, the first
TIFF directory in the file is automatically
read (also see TIFFSetDirectory(3TIFF) for reading
directories other than the first). If a file is opened for
writing or appending, a default directory is automatically
created for writing subsequent data. This directory has all
the default values specified in TIFF Revision
6.0: BitsPerSample=1, ThreshHolding=bilevel
art scan, FillOrder=1 (most significant bit of each
data byte is filled first), Orientation=1 (the 0th
row represents the visual top of the image, and the 0th
column represents the visual left hand side),
SamplesPerPixel=1, RowsPerStrip=infinity,
ResolutionUnit=2 (inches), and Compression=1
(no compression). To alter these values, or to define values
for additional fields, TIFFSetField(3TIFF) must be
used.

TIFFFdOpen is like TIFFOpen except that it
opens a TIFF file given an open file
descriptor fd. The file&rsquo;s name and mode must
reflect that of the open descriptor. The object associated
with the file descriptor must support random
access.

TIFFClientOpen is like TIFFOpen except that
the caller supplies a collection of functions that the
library will use to do UNIX -like I/O
operations. The readproc and writeproc are
called to read and write data at the current file position.
seekproc is called to change the current file
position a la lseek(2). closeproc is invoked
to release any resources associated with an open file.
sizeproc is invoked to obtain the size in bytes of a
file. mapproc and unmapproc are called to map
and unmap a file&rsquo;s contents in memory; c.f.
mmap(2) and munmap(2). The clientdata
parameter is an opaque &lsquo;&lsquo;handle&rsquo;&rsquo;
passed to the client-specified routines passed as parameters
to TIFFClientOpen.

Enable the use of memory-mapped files for images opened

cannot be memory-mapped then the library will fallback to
using the normal system interface for reading information.
By default the library will attempt to use memory-mapped
files.

Enable the use of &lsquo;&lsquo;strip
chopping&rsquo;&rsquo; when reading images that are
comprised of a single strip or tile of uncompressed data.
Strip chopping is a mechanism by which the library will
automatically convert the single-strip image to multiple
strips, each of which has about 8 Kilobytes of data. This
facility can be useful in reducing the amount of memory used
to read an image because the library normally reads each
strip in its entirety. Strip chopping does however alter the
apparent contents of the image because when an image is
divided into multiple strips it looks as though the
underlying file contains multiple separate strips. Finally,
note that default handling of strip chopping is a
compile-time configuration parameter. The default behaviour,
for backwards compatibility, is to enable strip
chopping.

The TIFF specification (all
versions) states that compliant readers must be
capable of reading images written in either byte order.
Nonetheless some software that claims to support the reading
of TIFF images is incapable of reading images
in anything but the native CPU byte order on
which the software was written. (Especially notorious are
applications written to run on Intel-based machines.) By
default the library will create new files with the native
byte-order of the CPU on which the
application is run. This ensures optimal performance and is
portable to any application that conforms to the TIFF
specification. To force the library to use a specific
byte-order when creating a new file the
&lsquo;&lsquo;b&rsquo;&rsquo; and
&lsquo;&lsquo;l&rsquo;&rsquo; option flags may be included
in the call to open a file; for example,
&lsquo;&lsquo;wb&rsquo;&rsquo; or
&lsquo;&lsquo;wl&rsquo;&rsquo;.

All error messages are directed to the
TIFFError(3TIFF) routine. Likewise, warning messages
are directed to the TIFFWarning(3TIFF) routine.

&quot;%s&quot;: Bad mode. The specified
mode parameter was not one of
&lsquo;&lsquo;r&rsquo;&rsquo; (read),
&lsquo;&lsquo;w&rsquo;&rsquo; (write), or
&lsquo;&lsquo;a&rsquo;&rsquo; (append).

%s: Cannot open. TIFFOpen() was unable to
open the specified filename for read/writing.

Cannot read TIFF header. An error occurred while
attempting to read the header information.

Error writing TIFF header. An error occurred while
writing the default header information for a new file.

Not a TIFF file, bad magic number %d (0x%x). The
magic number in the header was not (hex) 0x4d4d or (hex)
0x4949.

Not a TIFF file, bad version number %d (0x%x). The
version field in the header was not 42 (decimal).

Cannot append to file that has opposite byte
ordering. A file with a byte ordering opposite to the
native byte ordering of the current machine was opened for
appending (&lsquo;&lsquo;a&rsquo;&rsquo;). This is a
limitation of the library.
