LibTiff Mailing List

Hello all,

I've only recently joined this list so I may
be about to ask a question that was already
answered before.  If so, please don't flame me,
just tell me.  :)

From what I understand of the TIFF 6.0 spec (pg. 28-29),
a TIFF implementation should be able to cope with
different bit depths for every channel.  After looking
at the sources, I think that libtiff doesn't allow this.

Am I correct ?  At the moment, this is not much of an
issue to me, but it may become one in the future.

Thanks for your time,

Sven.
