PictureSharp.Tiff

TIFF and BigTIFF for PictureSharp, in pure C# with no native dependencies. Requires .NET 10+ and PictureSharp 0.7.9+.

dotnet add package PictureSharp.Tiff

Usage

Register the format once, then load and save .tif files like any other image:

using PictureSharp;
using PictureSharp.Formats.Tiff;

ImageConfiguration.Default = ImageConfiguration.Default.ToBuilder().AddFormat(new TiffFormat()).Build();

using var image = Image.Load("scan.tif");
image.Mutate(x => x.Resize(1600, 0));
image.SaveAsTiff("small.tif");

Loading reads the first page and keeps ICC, EXIF and XMP. Saving uses lossless LZW and writes each frame as a page. Other pages, JPEG compression and tiles are covered in the guides below.

Support

  • Read: strips and tiles; none, PackBits, LZW, Deflate, JPEG, WebP and CCITT fax; grey, palette, RGB, CMYK, YCbCr and float, with or without alpha.
  • Write: 8-bit grey, RGB, palette and black and white, with or without alpha; the same compressions (CCITT Group 4 only).
  • Metadata: ICC, XMP, EXIF/GPS, orientation and resolution, also edited in place.
  • Not supported: old-style JPEG, JBIG, LZMA, Zstandard, CIE Lab, signed samples; writing 16-bit, CMYK or planar data.

Pixels match libtiff 4.5.1 and Pillow 10.2.0.
