2007.07.09 07:59 "Need help to merge bilevel tiffs", by Oliver Geisen

Hello,

what i want to place one (or more) TIFF images (all of them in G4  
compression) into a given image and also set the x,y coordinates  
where each subsequent image should be placed.
Thinking of a syntax like:

placetiff [path to "sheet"] [left...] [top pixel of following image]  
[path to 1. image] ...
placetiff /tmp/broadsheet.tif 184 790 /tmp/image_ad1.tif

So, i searched around but could not find any tool which provides this  
on Linux using libtiff and is fast enough. Oh yes, i tried image- 
magick and netbpm. They both work, but are incredible slow working  
with G4 tiffs. So my last hope is to code it myself, but i'm less  
experienced using image-programming.

Maybe i can get some help from YOU :-)
Can someone point out how to solve this problem?
The main goal it to place ONE image into another. Placing many images  
would be fine, but is not necessarry (now).

Thanks,

Oliver Geisen
