It sounds like you've got libtiff to build and work, the question is how to handle compression?

No. I've implemented the functionalities from scratch in VC++6. Therefore no compression ability.

I just thought that I can use libtiff as a DLL and use functions as TIFFReadEncodedStrip() etc without compiling libtiff myself.

I use libtiff 3.7 in a scanning/imaging library that is built with MSVC 6 (though not for much longer...)

I can share some of my code. There isn't really any special code for handling compression during reading, libtiff just takes care of it. Actually,compression doesn't take much code either.

In fact, now that I look at the code, most of the complexity is in dealing with all the varieties, and quite a few 'oddities' of TIFFs we've encountered over the years...

My code uses a lower-level library to handle images in Windows 'DIB' format, don't know if that would make it unsuitable. E-mail me if are interested, spike@dosadi.com

Yes, I'm not only interested in your code, but also in the steps, e.g. which menu which item in VC++ development environment. If you could give me details on these, it would help me go further. Thanks in advance!
