I have monochrome data in a buffer taken from a bitmap file. I have converted to the data from double word aligned to byte aligned. I need to write this uncompressed data to a compressed ccitt g4 tif file in a single strip. Is there a way to do this with libtiff?

I don't think with libtiff alone. You have several choices:

• Use ImageMagick (the convert utility)
• Hack a little PostScript wrapper around your bitmap data or use something like ppmtops to create a PostScript file, and then use Ghostsctipt (-sDEVICE=tiffg4 -sOutputFile=filename).
