Hi All,

I solved a bug in the tiff2pdf tool (libtiff v3.7.2) and added an new
functionnality. 
The bug appears when converting Monochrome (1bit/pixel) tiled images. It
affects more generally all tiled images with less than 8bits per pixel. The
problem is that all the tiles on the left/right edges are incorrectly
converted due to an error in the calculation of the edgescanwidth parameter.

The new functionnality I added is to set the Interpolate flag to true in the
image dictionnary of the generated PDF. By default, this flag is set to
false, but with some PDF viewers it has to be activated to improve the
display quality of monochrome screened images.
I attached the result of a diff between the current version and my version
of tiff2pdf.

Regards,

Bruno.
