# Truevision TGA File Format Specification 2.0

Dominik Deák

## About

This repository unofficially maintains the official [Truevision TGA File Format Specification 2.0](https://github.com/DEAKSoftware/Truevision-TGA/raw/master/truevision-tga.pdf) as a PDF document. The specification was originally released by Truevision and it appeared as a collection of PostScript documents alongside with the book titled, Encyclopedia of Graphics File Formats [1]. The companion CD-ROM for the book is also available on-line [2, 3, 4]. Additional information about the file format can be found at [5].

The original document was a bit tricky to find initially and existing PDF copies circulating on the internet was of poor quality. Therefore, I decided to convert the original PostScript documents into a good quality PDF format and publish it on this repository. I used [Ghostscript](http://www.ghostscript.com/) for the conversion task.
