Hi,

I have 12-bit RGB data that I want to put into a tiff file. I've looked
over the tiff reference manual revision 6, but I'm still unsure whether
tiff will do the packing proparly for 12-bit data, or whether I will have
to waste 4-bits for every color component.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,
Kambiz
