TIFFWritedEncodedStrip  -  compress  and  write a strip of
       data to an open TIFF file


SYNOPSIS

       #include <tiffio.h>
       tsize_t TIFFWriteEncodedStrip(TIFF* tif,  tstrip_t  strip,
       tdata_t buf, tsize_t size)


DESCRIPTION

       Compress  size  bytes  of  raw data from buf and write the
       result to the specified strip;  replacing  any  previously
       written  data.   Note  that  the value of strip is a ``raw
       strip number.''   That  is,  the  caller  must  take  into
       account  whether or not the data are organized in separate
       places (PlanarConfiguration=2).


NOTES

       The library writes encoded data using the  native  machine
       byte   order.   Correctly  implemented  TIFF  readers  are
       expected to do any necessary  byte-swapping  to  correctly
       process image data with BitsPerSample greater than 8.

       The  strip  number  must be valid according to the current
       settings of the ImageLength  and  RowsPerStrip  tags.   An
       image  may be dynamically grown by increasing the value of
       ImageLength prior to each call to TIFFWriteEncodedStrip.


RETURN VALUES

       -1 is returned if an error  was  encountered.   Otherwise,
       the value of size is returned.


DIAGNOSTICS

       All  error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3T) rou­
       tine.

       %s: File not open for writing.  The file  was  opened  for
       reading, not writing.

       Can  not  write  scanlines to a tiled image.  The image is
       assumed to be organized in tiles because the TileWidth and
       TileLength tags have been set with TIFFSetField(3T).

       %s:  Must  set  "ImageWidth"  before  writing  data.   The
       image's width has not be set before the first write.   See
       TIFFSetField(3T) for information on how to do this.

       %s:  Must  set  "PlanarConfiguration" before writing data.
       The organization of data has not  be  defined  before  the
       first  write.  See TIFFSetField(3T) for information on how
       to do this.

       %s: No space for strip  arrays".   There  was  not  enough
       space  for  the  arrays  that  hold strip offsets and byte
