Hi Paul,

I am aware about this. Envision uses the popular libtiff library (www.libtiff.org) for tiff

support. It interacts with the Independent Jpeg Group library for JPEG support within tiff

files. Unfornately, it does not provice and easy way to control the JPEG compression/quality

factor. I have added this to the todo list.

For the compression type, there are tiff variations on the jpeg format in tiff files.

Libtiff (thus Envision) uses the most recent specification while some programs don't support

it. I cannot do anything about this.

Best regards,

Michel
