To make full (24 bit) color TIFF format files to be read on Macintosh
computers use:
IDL> mk_tiffb, outfile, image, r, g, b
where the required color table is specified by 256 element byte arrays
r, g, b. The output TIFF file contains the specified image which has been
flipped vertically for direct display on (most) tiff-readers on the Macintosh
and has a resolution of 100 pixels per inch. The default output file size
is 774 Kbytes which results from rebinning into image to 508
508 and fits on
the standard double sided Mac floppies (779 Kbytes capacity). For more
options (such as changing image size which is 508508 by default, noflip, etc.)
or information on MK_TIFFB use the DOC_LIBRARY utility.
