(A <i>pseudo-tag</i> is a parameter that is used to control the operation of the <small>TIFF</small> library but whose value is not read or written to the underlying file.) The file must have been previously opened with <i>TIFFOpen</i>(3TIFF). The tag is identified by <i>tag</i>, one of the values defined in the include file <b>tiff.h</b> (see also the table below). The type and number of values returned is dependent on the tag being requested. The programming interface uses a variable argument list as prescribed by the <i>stdarg</i>(3) interface. The returned values should only be interpreted if <i>TIFFGetField</i> returns 1.</p> <!-- INDENTATION --> <p><i>TIFFVGetField</i> is functionally equivalent to <i>TIFFGetField</i> except that it takes a pointer to a variable argument list. <i>TIFFVGetField</i> is useful for layering interfaces on top of the functionality provided by <i>TIFFGetField</i>.</p> <!-- INDENTATION --> <p><i>TIFFGetFieldDefaulted</i> and <i>TIFFVGetFieldDefaulted</i> are identical to <i>TIFFGetField</i> and <i>TIFFVGetField</i>, except that if a tag is not defined in the current directory and it has a default value, then the default value is returned.</p> <!-- INDENTATION --> <p>The tags understood by <i>libtiff(3TIFF),</i> the number of parameter values, and the types for the returned values are shown below. The data types are specified as in C and correspond to the types used to specify tag values to <i>TIFFSetField</i>(3TIFF). Remember that <i>TIFFGetField</i> returns parameter values, so all the listed data types are pointers to storage where values should be returned. Consult the <small>TIFF</small> specification (or relevant industry specification) for information on the meaning of each tag and their possible values.</p></td> </table> <!-- TABS --> <p><i>Tag Name
