         Notes
         -----
         The API is not stable yet and might change between revisions.
         
         Tested on little-endian platforms only.
         
-        Python 2.7, 3.4, and 32-bit versions are deprecated.
+        Python 32-bit versions are deprecated.
+        
+        Update pip and setuptools to the latest version before installing tifffile:
+        
+            ``python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools``
+        
+        Tifffile relies on the `imagecodecs <https://pypi.org/project/imagecodecs/>`_
+        package for encoding and decoding LZW, JPEG, and other compressed images.
+        
+        Several TIFF-like formats do not strictly adhere to the TIFF6 specification,
+        some of which allow file or data sizes to exceed the 4 GB limit:
+        
+        * *BigTIFF* is identified by version number 43 and uses different file
+          header, IFD, and tag structures with 64-bit offsets. It adds more data types.
+          Tifffile can read and write BigTIFF files.
+        * *ImageJ* hyperstacks store all image data, which may exceed 4 GB,
+          contiguously after the first IFD. Files > 4 GB contain one IFD only.
+          The size (shape and dtype) of the up to 6-dimensional image data can be
+          determined from the ImageDescription tag of the first IFD, which is Latin-1
+          encoded. Tifffile can read and write ImageJ hyperstacks.
+        * *OME-TIFF* stores up to 8-dimensional data in one or multiple TIFF of BigTIFF
+          files. The 8-bit UTF-8 encoded OME-XML metadata found in the ImageDescription
+          tag of the first IFD defines the position of TIFF IFDs in the high
+          dimensional data. Tifffile can read OME-TIFF files, except when the OME-XML
+          metadata are stored in a separate file.
+        * *LSM* stores all IFDs below 4 GB but wraps around 32-bit StripOffsets.
+          The StripOffsets of each series and position require separate unwrapping.
+          The StripByteCounts tag contains the number of bytes for the uncompressed
+          data. Tifffile can read large LSM files.
+        * *NDPI* uses some 64-bit offsets in the file header, IFD, and tag structures.
+          Tag values/offsets can be corrected using high bits stored after IFD
+          structures. JPEG compressed tiles with dimensions > 65536 are not readable
+          with libjpeg. Tifffile can read NDPI files < 4 GB and decompress large JPEG
+          tiles using the imagecodecs library on Windows.
+        * *ScanImage* optionally allows corrupt non-BigTIFF files > 2 GB. The values
+          of StripOffsets and StripByteCounts can be recovered using the constant
+          differences of the offsets of IFD and tag values throughout the file.
+          Tifffile can read such files on Python 3 if the image data are stored
+          contiguously in each page.
+        * *GeoTIFF* sparse files allow strip or tile offsets and byte counts to be 0.
+          Such segments are implicitly set to 0 or the NODATA value on reading.
+          Tifffile can read GeoTIFF sparse files.

 Notes
 -----
 The API is not stable yet and might change between revisions.
 
 Tested on little-endian platforms only.
 
-Python 2.7, 3.4, and 32-bit versions are deprecated.
+Python 32-bit versions are deprecated.
+
+Update pip and setuptools to the latest version before installing tifffile:
+
+    ``python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools``
+
+Tifffile relies on the `imagecodecs <https://pypi.org/project/imagecodecs/>`_
+package for encoding and decoding LZW, JPEG, and other compressed images..
+
+Several TIFF-like formats do not strictly adhere to the TIFF6 specification,
+some of which allow file or data sizes to exceed the 4 GB limit:
+
+* *BigTIFF* is identified by version number 43 and uses different file
+  header, IFD, and tag structures with 64-bit offsets. It adds more data types.
+  Tifffile can read and write BigTIFF files.
+* *ImageJ* hyperstacks store all image data, which may exceed 4 GB,
+  contiguously after the first IFD. Files > 4 GB contain one IFD only.
+  The size (shape and dtype) of the up to 6-dimensional image data can be
+  determined from the ImageDescription tag of the first IFD, which is Latin-1
+  encoded. Tifffile can read and write ImageJ hyperstacks.
+* *OME-TIFF* stores up to 8-dimensional data in one or multiple TIFF of BigTIFF
+  files. The 8-bit UTF-8 encoded OME-XML metadata found in the ImageDescription
+  tag of the first IFD defines the position of TIFF IFDs in the high
+  dimensional data. Tifffile can read OME-TIFF files, except when the OME-XML
+  metadata are stored in a separate file.
+* *LSM* stores all IFDs below 4 GB but wraps around 32-bit StripOffsets.
+  The StripOffsets of each series and position require separate unwrapping.
+  The StripByteCounts tag contains the number of bytes for the uncompressed
+  data. Tifffile can read large LSM files.
+* *NDPI* uses some 64-bit offsets in the file header, IFD, and tag structures.
+  Tag values/offsets can be corrected using high bits stored after IFD
+  structures. JPEG compressed tiles with dimensions > 65536 are not readable
+  with libjpeg. Tifffile can read NDPI files < 4 GB and decompress large JPEG
+  tiles using the imagecodecs library on Windows.
+* *ScanImage* optionally allows corrupt non-BigTIFF files > 2 GB. The values
+  of StripOffsets and StripByteCounts can be recovered using the constant
+  differences of the offsets of IFD and tag values throughout the file.
+  Tifffile can read such files on Python 3 if the image data are stored
+  contiguously in each page.
+* *GeoTIFF* sparse files allow strip or tile offsets and byte counts to be 0.
+  Such segments are implicitly set to 0 or the NODATA value on reading.
+  Tifffile can read GeoTIFF sparse files.

         Notes
         -----
         The API is not stable yet and might change between revisions.
         
         Tested on little-endian platforms only.
         
-        Python 2.7, 3.4, and 32-bit versions are deprecated.
+        Python 32-bit versions are deprecated.
+        
+        Update pip and setuptools to the latest version before installing tifffile:
+        
+            ``python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools``
+        
+        Tifffile relies on the `imagecodecs <https://pypi.org/project/imagecodecs/>`_
+        package for encoding and decoding LZW, JPEG, and other compressed images.
+        
+        Several TIFF-like formats do not strictly adhere to the TIFF6 specification,
+        some of which allow file or data sizes to exceed the 4 GB limit:
+        
+        * *BigTIFF* is identified by version number 43 and uses different file
+          header, IFD, and tag structures with 64-bit offsets. It adds more data types.
+          Tifffile can read and write BigTIFF files.
+        * *ImageJ* hyperstacks store all image data, which may exceed 4 GB,
+          contiguously after the first IFD. Files > 4 GB contain one IFD only.
+          The size (shape and dtype) of the up to 6-dimensional image data can be
+          determined from the ImageDescription tag of the first IFD, which is Latin-1
+          encoded. Tifffile can read and write ImageJ hyperstacks.
+        * *OME-TIFF* stores up to 8-dimensional data in one or multiple TIFF of BigTIFF
+          files. The 8-bit UTF-8 encoded OME-XML metadata found in the ImageDescription
+          tag of the first IFD defines the position of TIFF IFDs in the high
+          dimensional data. Tifffile can read OME-TIFF files, except when the OME-XML
+          metadata are stored in a separate file.
+        * *LSM* stores all IFDs below 4 GB but wraps around 32-bit StripOffsets.
+          The StripOffsets of each series and position require separate unwrapping.
+          The StripByteCounts tag contains the number of bytes for the uncompressed
+          data. Tifffile can read large LSM files.
+        * *NDPI* uses some 64-bit offsets in the file header, IFD, and tag structures.
+          Tag values/offsets can be corrected using high bits stored after IFD
+          structures. JPEG compressed tiles with dimensions > 65536 are not readable
+          with libjpeg. Tifffile can read NDPI files < 4 GB and decompress large JPEG
+          tiles using the imagecodecs library on Windows.
+        * *ScanImage* optionally allows corrupt non-BigTIFF files > 2 GB. The values
+          of StripOffsets and StripByteCounts can be recovered using the constant
+          differences of the offsets of IFD and tag values throughout the file.
+          Tifffile can read such files on Python 3 if the image data are stored
+          contiguously in each page.
+        * *GeoTIFF* sparse files allow strip or tile offsets and byte counts to be 0.
+          Such segments are implicitly set to 0 or the NODATA value on reading.
+          Tifffile can read GeoTIFF sparse files.
