I've written with VC++ an apps which convert .BMP to .TIF, allow selecting the TIFF compression.

This apps run well, but I've one image, 1006x764x256 colours which generate a buggy TIF: If I open the Tiff with Paint Shop Pro 5, Paint Shop Pro crash.

The Tiff is saved in LZW without predictor. If I save uncompressed TIF, PSP open it.

I've the problem with both 3.4beta 37 and 3.5.1 LibTiff.

I can send the image and the apps to anyone which is interrested.

You could send me the image (not the apps), I'll check the TIFF image if it's conformant to the spec.
