Notes:
|
|
|
|
- DOS command line EXE.
- Output file is written in the same TIFF format is input file.
- Source and destination file can be the same.
- stampfile.txt defines the text and bitmap strings (see format description below).
- appendfile.tif is an optional parameter, and is only appended to the destination file
if destination filename is different from the source file name.
- the append file is not stamped. Only the source file.
- output resolution is same as input resolution. We've tested with
low res, high res, and combinations.
