Hello,
	I seem to be exercising some rarely used features of the
	tiff library.  Has anyone tried writing more than 4 channels
	to a file with lzw compression?  When I try this with a 720x486
	image that is just a grayscale ramp, I get a strangly cropped
	image.  It writes with no error, and reads with no error,
	but the right hand third (about) of the image is black, the rest
	is ok.

	Any Ideas?

		--> Gabe
