Thank you for the feedback, specially, since it was nothing more than an approximation of what I interpreted you were looking for. Nevertheless, if it would have not been, it could have been fixed by providing more feedback based on the output of it.
For me, it is never a waste of time.
Hi Aia,
If you look back at the earlier posts in this thread, you'll note that I provided code that did exactly what the OP requested and asked for details describing how we were supposed to determine what text was supposed to be extracted from an input file. The response so far has been that with
x as input,
y is the desired output.
You provided a great piece of code that didn't produce the output requested for any of the three sample input lines the OP posted. Apparently the OP has a solution that meets his or her requirements, but since we don't really know what those requirements are, I don't see how either of us can write code to meet those requirements.

tiffcheck
TIFFCHECK(8C) TIFFCHECK(8C)
NAME
tiffcheck - check TIFF for HylaFAX conversion requirements
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/tiffcheck [ options ] file.tif
DESCRIPTION
tiffcheck takes TIFF input and writes a multi-line text message to the standard output describing any work needed to prepare the images for
facsimile transmission. tiffcheck is usually invoked by tiff2fax(8C) script that is used by the HylaFAX scheduler to prepare TIFF docu-
ments submitted for transmission.
The first line of output is a series of ``+''-separated words that indicate if the input file should be:
o rejected (``REJECT''),
o reformatted with a different data-encoding scheme (``REFORMAT''),
o scaled to different page dimensions (``RESIZE''),
o reimaged in a different vertical resolution (``REVRES''), or
o reimaged for other reasons such as conversion from color to black&white (``REIMAGE'').
The conversion requirements string will always have keywords in the above order; e.g. ``RESIZE+REVRES'' if the input file needs to be
scaled and converted to a different resolution. Information following the first line is descriptive text that explains the reason(s) for
the file conversion(s); this text is suitable for return to a client (should document conversion fail or not be attempted). The descrip-
tive text is ordered identically to the keywords in the conversion string; this makes it possible to match up conversion requirements to
reasons.
OPTIONS
The following operations are recognized:
-1 Set output to be Group 3 1D-encoded.
-2 Set output to be Group 3 2D-encoded.
-3 Set output to be Group 4 MMR-encoded.
-w width Set the output page width, in pixels. By default, pages are 1728 pixels wide.
-l length Set the output page length in millimeters. By default, pages are 297 millimeters long.
-r vres Set the vertical resolution, in lines/inch, at which to image the .
EXAMPLES
The following color image needs to be converted to black&white, resized to the output page dimensions, and reformatted to use Group 3 1D-
encoded data.
hyla% /usr/sbin/tiffcheck jello.tif
REFORMAT+RESIZE+REIMAGE
Document is not a bilevel image (bits/sample 8).
Document requires reformatting, not in Group 3 format.
Document requires resizing to adjust page width (convert to 1728, document is 256).
This image is a facsimile received at high resolution (196 lpi); it only needs to be converted to 98 lpi.
hyla% /usr/sbin/tiffcheck faxix.tif
REVRES
Document requires reformatting to adjust vertical resolution (convert to 98, document is 196).
