How do I use compression? #399

Your docs say that this library has compression but I cannot figure out a to compress my Tiff file. Does this library only support decoding tiff files or can we also compress our tif files?

constantinius commented 11 months ago

Yes, currently only decompression is supported. Currently there are no plans to enable compression when writing TIFFs.

Thank you @constantinius, do you know of any good javascript Tif compression libraries?

constantinius commented 11 months ago

I'm sorry, no. Usually I'm using CLI commands (especially GDAL) to create TIFFs with compression.
