HOWTO: Combine Tiff files without re-compressing C# VS2008 v18

The attached C# project uses RasterCodecs.CompactFile() method to append the contents of one TIFF file to another without re-compressing either file.

The code is very short and is in the form named CombineTif.

It uses version 18 of LEADTOOLS and to compile it, you should copy it to a folder like this:
LEADTOOLS 18\Examples\DotNet\CS\[folder name].

Updated to LEADTOOLS v19 with Visual Studio 2017. There are various Visual Studio projects for 32-bit or 64-bit for different versions of Visual Studio (2008, 2010, 2012, and now 2017).
Extract to "C:\LEADTOOLS 19\Examples\DotNet\CS" to use the example.

There are two files included for testing ("CS_CombineTifDemo.tif" and "CS_CombineTifDemo_result.tif"), copy to the "LEADTOOLS Images" directory ("C:\Users\Public\Documents\LEADTOOLS Images\") before running. The demo will take the page from "CS_CombineTifDemo.tif" and append it to "CS_CombineTifDemo_result.tif", but will accept any filenames as parameters, also supports multi-page Tiff files.
