LibTiff Mailing List

Hello,

I am trying to program a tiff viewer and I have a little problem.

Loading a monochrome tiff, it of course loads into the RGBA bitmap (using
TIFFReadRGBAImage), thus using a lot more memory than necessary. 

I would like to be able to specify my bitmap as monochrome and use pf1bit to
load the monochrome tiff bitmap into it, so that I can keep the footprint of
the program as little as possible, 

But I have not found a way to read Monochrome tiff into monochrome bitmap.
Am I missing something? Anyone has done this before? 

Any help in this issue is appreciated.

Thank you very much for your help,

Frank Mayer
