+This software provides support for the Tag Image File Format (TIFF), a
+widely used format for storing image data.
+
+Included in this software distribution is a library, libtiff, for
+reading and writing TIFF, a small collection of tools for doing simple
+manipulations of TIFF images on UNIX systems, and documentation on the
+library and tools. A small assortment of TIFF-related software for
+UNIX that has been contributed by others is also included.
+
+The library is capable of dealing with images that are written to
+follow the 5.0 or 6.0 TIFF spec. There is also considerable support
+for some of the more esoteric portions of the 6.0 TIFF spec.
+
+SGI has also added html-documentation in addition to man-pages.
