In GRX's docs, there is a link that is still active.
ftp://ftp.sgi.com:21/graphics/tiff/
Please see HOWTO first of all. Hopefully it should be helpful but only for certain platforms. Personally I've no experience calling TIFF but a lot of clues can be found viewing the source-code.
A lot wishes for a new and updated GRX release!

Hi,
I have been working on Ada bindings to the GRX libraries. The only problems I have been having is that I sometimes have font display problems. Characters will either print out or not. The same problem occurs in the "C" code, however, not in the same places as the Ada code!

You're not incidentally using non-ASCII characters? AFAIK (some? of) GRX's default fonts use the old IBM/Dos coding instead of standard Latin1, Unicode or such. So if accented letters do not show up, you might need to convert them to Dos codes (or use another font). But if ASCII characters cause problems or results are seemingly random, it's probably something else.

No I am not intentionally using any characters different that what the tests had. When you run the tests that have font text, do they output correctly each time you execute the test? Mine don't.

You know, GRX doesn't have maintainer now. But I am working in a fork: MGRX (mini-grx or my grx or Mariano's grx). Features (or missfeatures): - C only - Only 4 platforms supported: djgpp, w32(mingw), linux framebuffer, linux X11 - No BGI. No add-ons - A new and different (and better I think) input api Probably I will release it in a month or so.
Greetings, M.Alvarez
