+.SH NAME
+TIFFError, TIFFSetErrorHandler \- library error handling interface
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
+.br
+.B "void TIFFError(const char* module, const char* fmt, ...)"
+.sp .5
+.B "#include <stdarg.h>"
+.br
+.B "typedef void (*TIFFErrorHandler)(const char* module, const char* fmt, va_list ap);"
+.br
+.B "TIFFErrorHandler TIFFSetErrorHandler(TIFFErrorHandler handler);"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I TIFFError
+invokes the library-wide error handling function
+to (normally) write an error message to the
+.BR stderr .
+The
+.I fmt
+parameter is a
+.IR printf (3S)
+format string, and any number arguments can be supplied.
+The
+.I module
+parameter, if non-zero, is printed before the message; it typically
+is used to identify the software module in which an error
+is detected.
+.PP
+Applications that desire to capture control in the event of an error
+should use
+.IR TIFFSetErrorHandler
+to override the default error handler.
+A
+.SM NULL
+(0) error handling function may be installed to
+suppress error messages.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IR TIFFSetErrorHandler
+returns a reference to the previous error handling function.
