Hi,

> I've noticed some small problems with TIFF JPEG compression.

I did experiece similar problems on Lab and JPEG. Seems JPEG is not
adecuate on such high gamma spaces. If you are using Lab because its
color accurancy, you should reconsider the compression scheme. JPEG
yelds  great compression ratios, but is lossy. And since Lab is hardly
perceptually uniform, the noise comes easely evident. A better choice
would be to use RGB and embed icc profile. If the profile is accurate
enough, you will better results on this way than using Lab.

TIFF 6 states that tiles shouldn't hold any alignment. Your image seems
somehow dword aligned.

Hope this helps,
