# Line 55 | Line 55 | However, since many TIFF readers do not yet support th

58 > option specifies SGILOG24 compressed output, which has
59   less dynamic range than SGILOG, but may be smaller in some cases.

61 > The
62 > .I \-f
63 > option specifies 32-bit IEEE floating-point/primary output, which
64 > is the highest resolution format but results in very large files, since
65 > each RGB pixel takes 96 bits (12 bytes) and does not compress well.
66 > The
67 > .I \-w
68 > option specifies 16-bit/primary output, which is understood by

70   Decompression is automatically determined for TIFF input.
71   .PP
72   The
# Line 65 | Line 74 | The
74   option specifies an exposure compensation in f-stops (powers of two).
75   Only integer stops are allowed, for efficiency.
76   .PP
77 + If the Radiance input is a hyperspectral picture, it will be
78 + converted accurately if the output is anything but 24-bit RGB.
79 + In the latter case, the converted colors will be approximate.
80 + .PP
81   The
82   .I \-r
83   option invokes a reverse conversion, from a TIFF image to
# Line 79 | Line 92 | than the default RGBE.
92   .SH EXAMPLES
93   To convert a Radiance picture to SGILOG-compressed TIFF format:
94   .IP "" .2i
95 < ra_tiff -L scene1.pic scene1.tif
95 > ra_tiff \-L scene1.hdr scene1.tif
96   .PP
97   To later convert this image back into Radiance and display using
98   human visibility tone-mapping:
99   .IP "" .2i
100 < ra_tiff -r scene1.tif scene1.pic
100 > ra_tiff \-r scene1.tif scene1.hdr
101   .br
102 < ximage -e human scene1.pic
102 > ximage \-e human scene1.hdr

107   .SH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
# Line 101 | Line 114 | Many TIFF file subtypes are not supported.
114   A gamma value other than 2.2 is not properly recorded or understood if
115   recorded in the TIFF file.
