Hi all!

I am new to this mailing list, new to TIFF, new to libtiff and new to Visual C++. So you might say I am VERY new :-).

Currently I have compiled libtiff to a windows DLL using M$ Visual C++ 5.0. I am now working on an interface to this DLL so as to be able to read and write TIFF files from within my graphics engine, which is written to run in Borland Delphi 3, 4 and 5.

So far, I have not encountered any problems. (But I am not at all done yet.) So I have but one main question really: do any of you have any advice you wish to share with me? I have read some sketchy stuff about fax files being related to TIFF. Anyone has a link to some good info on this? (I don't fax, I have no test fax files at all). Also, is there a good and complete testpics library available? The testpics distributed with libtiff (called v3.4pics or something if I remember correctly - I have already deleted the compressed file) seems very incomplete.

Thank you all very much in advance!
