Hi

My question is quite simple : are XResolution, YResolution and ResolutionUnit
tags manfatory in a TIFF image ?

It seems to be masked as "required" in the specification and no default values
are indicated for the XResolution/YResolution tags.

However, i've read in several documents that these data are optionnals ...

Where is the truth ?
