I am just using libtiff 4.0.0; I don't have any other version to work with. I am building it as part of another product's "make install" procedure which makes use of the libtiff configuration. I am able to use libtiff in my applications without a problem for decoding and encoding. But I cannot seem to get LZW support to work, even when tiff_config.h says that it is configured with "#define LZW_SUPPORT 1".
