TIFF isn't a scanner in the sense of hardware you put paper onto. However, if we're talking about having a scanned page in TIFF already, then this is easy. Using libtiff in C++ is no different than using it in C. Just include the headers, link to the library and off you go. Have a look at the IBM developerWorks articles on this for more information: http://www-109.ibm.com/cgi-bin/click.pl?url=http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-libtiff/&qry=libtiff http://www-109.ibm.com/cgi-bin/click.pl?url=http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-libtiff2/&qry=libtiff You should note however, that the libtiff headers have not been extern "C"'ed, which means you might need to hack the headers a little.B > please sir help me for developing this project . > > send me some information about this project that how i proceed so that > i can read any file through TIFF and display it usin this format. > > please sir keep intouch with me > > it will be greate pleasure for me if you help me for this project > > Mukesh Kumar Please note that I have never actually used libtiff in C++, but have used many other C apis in C++, so I can't see there being a big problem, assuming extern "C" has been used.
