TIFFReadTile \- read and decode a tile of data from an open TIFF file

Return the data for the tile containing the specified coordinates\&. The
data is returned decompressed and in the native byte- and bit-ordering, but
is otherwise packed as described below\&. The buffer must be large enough to
hold an entire tile of data\&. Applications should call the routine \fBTIFFTileSize\fR to find out the size in bytes of a tile buffer\&. The \fBx\fR and \fBy\fR parameters are always used by \fBTIFFReadTile\fR\&. The \fBz\fR parameter is used if the
image is deeper than 1 slice (ImageDepth>1)\&. The \fBsample\fR
parameter is used only if data is organized in separate planes (PlanarConfiguration=2)\&.
.PP
The library attempts to hide bit- and byte-ordering differences between
the image and the native machine by converting data to the native machine
order\&. Bit reversal is performed if the \fBFillOrder\fR tag is
opposite to the native machine bit order\&. 16- and 32-bit samples are automatically
byte-swapped if the file was written with a byte order opposite to the native
machine byte order\&.
.PP
All error messages are directed to the \fBTIFFError(3tiff)\fR
routine\&.
.SH ""
.PP
Returns -1 if an error was encountered\&. Otherwise, returns the number
of bytes in the decoded tile\&.
