I want to convert DNG to TIFF using API

It's curious that we get so many questions about this now. You'd almost think it was a class asignment or something. If that's the case, it's a poor assignment that doesn't take the full problem into consideration - unless this is precisely the lesson to be extracted from it.

Would it be possible for you to build your app using an existing raw conversion library such as LibRaw, which is open source? It is already used by many applications for raw conversions, and appears to support TIFF output and Adobe RGB, from looking at the documentation. (However, I am not a programmer.)

Thanks NB for reply,

I want to convert dng to tif in Android. Sorry for late reply because I was doing a different project for while. Now I'm back to this project.

but why do you want TIF on a mobile?

To process some scientific images.

What application will be used to view there TIF?

We've developed app that view TIF images.

We want to convert dng to tiff using Adobe color space.

Are you thinking iOS or Android? 

How will the DNG be created on a mobile? The camera normally takes jpegs I believe?

[Edit - OK got that - your app is a RAW camera that makes DNG files, right? - but why do you want TIF on a mobile?]

What application will be used to view there TIF?

Might I please ask why?

As Lumigraphics mentioned it's going to be ugly (network intensive?) uploading and downloading large files.

I hope this helps

I'm guessing that Core Image handles this on iOS, not sure. There should be be SOMETHING out there where you can do this on-device. Uploading and downloading DNG and TIFF images is going to be ugly on mobile.
