<p><i>Fax2tiff</i> creates a <small>TIFF</small> file
containing <small>CCITT</small> Group 3 or Group 4 encoded
data from one or more files containing
‘‘raw’’ Group 3 or Group 4 encoded
data (typically obtained directly from a fax modem). By
default, each row of data in the resultant
<small>TIFF</small> file is 1-dimensionally encoded and
padded or truncated to 1728 pixels, as needed. The resultant
image is a set of low resolution (98 lines/inch) or medium
resolution (196 lines/inch) pages, each of which is a single
strip of data. The generated file conforms to the
<small>TIFF</small> Class F ( <small>FAX</small> )
specification for storing facsimile data. This means, in
particular, that each page of the data does <b>not</b>
include the trailing <i>return to control</i> (
<small>RTC</small> ) code; as required for transmission by
the <small>CCITT</small> Group 3 specifications. The old,
‘‘classic’’, format is created if
the <b>−c</b> option is used. (The Class F format can
also be requested with the <b>−f</b> option.)</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p>The default name of the output image is <i>fax.tif</i>;
this can be changed with the <b>−o</b> option. Each
input file is assumed to be a separate page of facsimile
data from the same document. The order in which input files
are specified on the command line is the order in which the
resultant pages appear in the output file.</p>
