Since GDI is not "up to speed" with TIFF compression, you could automate Microsoft Document Imaging and at least get CCITT4 compression level. You have to start with a monochrome document to acheive this. Stephane's original request was a 100% VFP solution, but according to Cesar it is not possible.

>>The same way. change the third parameter to 3,4 or 5. What is confusing to me is in the link I pointed to earlier there is a statement (In German) that says (Loosely translated):
>>A GDI+ bit-map object stores ' with the compression modes "RLE", "CCITT3" ' and "CCITT4" by GDI+ as 1bppIndexed tiff ' with not optimized pallet

>What do you mean, "the same way"? It did not work before for 3,4,5, and it does not work now. Or it works for you?
