I'm not quite sure what you mean. The steps to build on Windows x64 are similar to what is described at:

http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/build.html#PC

In case it's not obvious as to how to adapt those steps to Windows 64, the 3 easy steps are:

Launch from the Start Menu: All Programs > Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 > Visual Studio Tools > Visual Studio x64 Win64 Command Prompt (2010). If you do not have this item in your start menu, then you did not install the 64-bit VC compiler. It is NOT installed by default when you install Visual Studio.
cd to the top level directory where you extracted libtiff. This directory contains nmake.opt.
nmake /f makefile.vc

Best Regards,

build LibTiff, I happen to have V4.02, for x64 on Windows where I have VS2010 installed. I would have guessed this was an option inside

Any feedback on how I go about using make files to build for x64 would be much appreciated. Thanks,
