DESCRIPTION

       TIFFDefaultTileSize returns the pixel width and height of a reasonable-
       sized tile; suitable for setting up the TileWidth and TileLength  tags.
       If  the tw and th values passed in are non-zero, then they are adjusted
       to reflect any compression-specific requirements.  The  returned  width
       and  height  are  constrained  to be a multiple of 16 pixels to conform
       with the TIFF specification.

       TIFFTileSize returns the equivalent size for a tile of data as it would
       be  returned  in a call to TIFFReadTile or as it would be expected in a
       call to TIFFWriteTile.

       TIFFVTileSize returns the number of bytes in a  row-aligned  tile  with
       nrows of data.

       TIFFTileRowSize returns the number of bytes of a row of data in a tile.

       TIFFComputeTile returns the tile that contains  the  specified  coordi-
       nates.  A valid tile is always returned; out-of-range coordinate values
       are clamped to the bounds of the image. The  x  and  y  parameters  are
       always used in calculating a tile. The z parameter is used if the image
       is deeper than 1 slice (ImageDepth>1).  The sample  parameter  is  used
       only  if data are organized in separate planes (PlanarConfiguration=2).

       TIFFCheckTile returns a non-zero value if the supplied coordinates  are
       within  the  bounds of the image and zero otherwise. The x parameter is
       checked against the value of the ImageWidth tag.  The  y  parameter  is
       checked  against  the  value of the ImageLength tag. The z parameter is
       checked against the value of the ImageDepth tag (if defined). The  sam-
       ple  parameter  is  checked  against  the  value of the SamplesPerPixel
       parameter if the data are organized in separate planes.

       TIFFNumberOfTiles returns the number of tiles in the image.
