1997.05.08 20:35 "compression", by Humzah Jaffar

hello all.

i have an elementary question.

i convert tiffs from the proprietary canofile interface to get the index file along with the corresponding tiffs. then i display these tiffs to an internet browser.

how do i go about making sure the tiffs are compressed during storage and decompressed when they are called by the browser? in other words, are these CCIT G4 tiffs compressed already or is there anything i can do to compress them for storage? i'd appreaciate direction towards proper literature/websites.

thanks,
humzah
