Jamie, 

Thanks. I thought there must be a way to compile 32-bit binaries 
with the 64-bit sdk, but I couldn't find it. One question though, 
liblouisutdml depends on several Windows libraries. If it is compiled on 
a 64-bit system will it be able to find those libraries on a native 
32-bit system? 

Thanks,
John
