I am fairly new to libtiff but I have been asked to make a program to combine multiple number of tiffs into one tiff, allowing different placement of the tiffs and sizing. I've found a few good sites to get me started but none that deal with streaming multiple tiffs into one. The basic layout of the program (C/C++) is:
- get number of tiffs
- Read in tiffs (sizes, and other header format)
- Get desired position of tiffs in new image
- Convert tiffs to desired size and common format (colour, grey or b+w)
- Make one tiff, stream in tiff information where needed
- Save the tiff
The tiffs that are being read in are fairly large, can be black + white or colour and of varying resolution. This is a big task for a newbie and any help would be appreciated and any recommendations in reading would also be apprecitated
