NAME
       TIFFWriteTile - encode and write a tile of data to an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS
       #include <tiffio.h>
       tsize_t	TIFFWriteTile(TIFF*  tif,  tdata_t  buf,  uint32 x, uint32 y,
       uint32 z, tsample_t sample)

DESCRIPTION
       Write the data for the tile containing the specified coordinates.  The
       data  in buf are is (potentially) compressed, and written to the indi-
       cated file, normally being appended to  the  end	 of  the  file.	  The
       buffer  must  be	 contain an entire tile of data.  Applications should
       call the routine TIFFTileSize to find out the size  (in	bytes)	of  a
       tile buffer.  The x and y parameters are always used by TIFFWriteTile.
       The z  parameter	 is  used  if  the  image  is  deeper  than  1	slice
       (ImageDepth>1).	 The  sample parameter is used only if data are orga-
       nized in separate planes (PlanarConfiguration=2).

RETURN VALUES
       TIFFWriteTile returns -1 if it detects an error; otherwise the  number
       of bytes in the tile is returned.

DIAGNOSTICS
       All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3T) routine.
