Hello all,

I have been asked a question about the Sam Leffler TIFF library that I was
unable to
answer.
The question is as follows:
Using the TIFF library, how would you add a simple string (example -
"HELLO WORLD") at the bottom
of a TIFF (group 4) image file.  Note that a UNIX C program exists to copy
TIFF files to a HP 5S printer that
has a special card to handle TIFF files, but a simple string is needed at
the bottom of each file. 
I have noticed routines like TIFFWriteRawStrip, TIFFWriteRawTile, etc.
Would these routines help, or does some sort of annotation function exist?
Any examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for any help,
