<p><i>tiffcp</i> combines one or more files created
according to the Tag Image File Format, Revision 6.0 into a
single <small>TIFF</small> file. Because the output file may
be compressed using a different algorithm than the input
files, <i>tiffcp</i> is most often used to convert between
different compression schemes.</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p>By default, <i>tiffcp</i> will copy all the understood
tags in a <small>TIFF</small> directory of an input file to
the associated directory in the output file.</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p><i>tiffcp</i> can be used to reorganize the storage
characteristics of data in a file, but it is explicitly
intended to not alter or convert the image data content in
any way.</p>

<p>The <small>CCITT</small> Group 3 and Group 4 compression
algorithms can only be used with bilevel data.</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p>Group 3 compression can be specified together with
several T.4-specific options: <b>1d</b> for 1-dimensional
encoding, <b>2d</b> for 2-dimensional encoding, and
<b>fill</b> to force each encoded scanline to be zero-filled
so that the terminating EOL code lies on a byte boundary.
Group 3-specific options are specified by appending a
‘‘:’’-separated list to the
‘‘g3’’ option; e.g. <b>−c
g3:2d:fill</b> to get 2D-encoded data with byte-aligned EOL
codes.</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p><small>LZW</small> compression can be specified together
with a <i>predictor</i> value. A predictor value of 2 causes
each scanline of the output image to undergo horizontal
differencing before it is encoded; a value of 1 forces each
scanline to be encoded without differencing. LZW-specific
options are specified by appending a
‘‘:’’-separated list to the
‘‘lzw’’ option; e.g. <b>−c
lzw:2</b> for <small>LZW</small> compression with horizontal
differencing.</p>
