I have tried downloading 3.5.2 from the address http://www.libtiff.org/tiff-v3.5.2.tar.gz, but this creates the file tiff-v3_5_2_tar.tar, and WinZip reports an error in byte 0 when trying to read it.

John,

You can grab:

ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/tiff-v3.5.2.tar.gz

I believe the problem you are encountering is a common one with Netscape, and perhaps some other browsers, on Windows. It is doing CR/LF translation on the binary file as it is doing an http download. This shouldn't be a problem with ftp downloads.

It is my intention that at some point in the future, all the www.libtiff.org downloads will be available off the ftp.remotesensing.org ftp server.

Best regards,
