When i try to do this it always gives errors like bad tile length, or you have exceeded max tile length which is 0 for some reason. I cannot find any information on how to do this. I have read in the Tiff specification that tiling works well with the jpeg format and is especially suited to large high resolution images so i need it now as i have performance problems in my applications with 600x600Dpi A3 size images. If someone has a small sample of how to create a tiled image it would be great.

Due to the way JPEG works, I expect that only tile sizes with a width and height which are a multiple of 8 will work. There are similar issues with using strips and JPEG. The rows per strip must be a multiple of 8.
