title: Using LibTiff in Visual Studio 2010
body: <p>I'm trying to use LibTiff in a C++ Program in Visual Studio 2010. I downloaded tiff-3.9.2.zip from <a href="ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff</a>. To test LibTiff it would be nice if someone could give me a step by step instruction how to import libtiff to visual Studio and build the Fax2Tiff tool.</p>
  
  <p>There are so many files so that I am totally confused.</p>
  
  <p>What I already have done:</p>
  
  <p>1) Created a new Empty Win32 Console Application Project named "TiffTest"</p>
  
  <p>2) Copied the folder "libtiff" from the tiff-3.9.2.zip to the Project Folder</p>
  
  <p>3) Copied the file "fax2tiff.c" to the Project Folder</p>
  
  <p>4) Added those files to the Project</p>

  <p>5) Added the "libtiff" folter to the additional include folders</p>
  
  <p>6) Renamed the files "tif_config.vc.h" and "tiffconf.vc.h" to "tif_config.h" and "tiffconf.h"</p>
  
  <p>7) Tried to compile it.</p>
  
  <p>This does not really work. All I do to get rid of the error messages causes new error messages. Can anyone tell me how I can get libtiff to work?</p>
  
  <p>I really need help...</p>
  
  <p>Thank you so much!</p>
