mnjrupp, OK, so I hadn't tested with libtiff, but I just did and it works, but that was building with vc++ express 2008, and using the 2.04 tesseract.sln. I followed my own instructions on the readme wiki, and it worked without problem.
You can't use VC++ 2005 because MS changed the file format. VC++ 2008 writes files that are not backwards compatible, so get with the times and upgrade! Ray.
