A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Fax Working Group of the IETF.
Title : File Format for Internet Fax
Author(s) : S. Zilles, G. Parsons, J. Rafferty,
L. McIntyre, D. Venable, R. Buckley
Filename : draft-ietf-fax-tiffplus-06.txt
Pages : 68
Date : 05-Jan-98
This Internet Draft describes the TIFF (Tag Image File Format)
representation of image data specified by the ITU-T Recommendations for
black-and-white and color facsimile. This file format specification is
commonly known as TIFF-FX. It formally defines minimal, extended and
lossless JBIG modes (Profiles S, F, J) for black-and-white fax, and base
JPEG, lossless JBIG and Mixed Raster Content modes (Profiles C, L, M)
for color and grayscale fax. These modes or profiles correspond to the
content of the applicable ITU-T Recommendations. Files formatted
according to this specification use the image/tiff MIME Content Type.
Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username

Send a message to: mailserv at ds.internic.net. In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-fax-tiffplus-06.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
Note Well: Messages sent to this mailing list are the opinions of the senders and do not imply endorsement by the IETF.
