Hello,

I have written a small program to open a TIFF file, read it using TIFFRGBAImage, and then dump the image out byte by byte in hex. I found that the scanline order seems to be reversed.

I scanned archive.May2593-Aug1893 and found only one reference to this function. I use libtiff v3.21 BETA compiled on an multiprocessor sun (`mach`=sparc, `arch`=sun4). The program and the pnm file used to create the tiff file is attached below. Thanks for your help in advance.

Regards,
  Beta.
