While I understand what it is supposed to do, running this function always
returns a raw tiff file for me (not I have only tried 2 of the compressors).
It completely ignores the options for compression. That is why I said it was
a useless function. Maybe some of the compressions work, but the couple I
tried didn't (and no error, just a raw tiff file...)

It lists none, lzw, packbits, and jpeg as the compression options. One or
two are left out, so maybe the issue is with those 2 compressors (they don9t
work as they should). I would love it if someone from Apple could explain
why the function seems to work with some of the compressions you pass, but
not with others.

Thanks,
Ben
