Converting TIFF-F or TIFF-S Files: nfxcnvrt
Name
- nfxcnvrt
Purpose
- Converts image format characteristics of an input TIFF-F or TIFF-S file, either according to default values or as specified in the command line, and saves the modified file under a designated new name.
Usage
nfxcnvrt input_file output_file [convert_encoding
[convert_resolution [convert_page_width
[convert_bad_line]]]]
- Unless you specify different attributes in the command line arguments, nfxcnvrt uses the following default values:
- convert_resolution LOW
- convert_page_width A4
- convert_bad_line REPT
- You can set any of the image format characteristics to any of their allowed values, as follows:
Description
- The default attributes constitute image format capabilities that are found in every fax terminal. Therefore, any file processed by nfxcnvrt using its default values can be transmitted to, or received by, any fax terminal, regardless of its capabilities.
- A screen message displays the number of pages processed when nfxcnvrt completes the conversion.
- Specifying TIFF_S encoding causes the utility to convert the output file using TIFF-S attributes of 1D encoding, LOW resolution, and A4 pagewidth. TIFF-S encoding overrides any values specified on the command line.
- To repair any bad lines in a file, run nfxcnvrt and specify an output format that is the same as the input format. This removes bad lines by dropping the line, repeating the previous line, or replacing the line with a blank line and a tick mark in the margin, depending on the value selected for convert_bad_line. The original image cannot be reconstructed.
