Honestly, my needs are absolutely not so big at all concerning the quality of the TIFF. Actually I just plain text I want to visualise, on white/transparent background with black text. So as long as the text can be seen, I wil be satisfied :=)
Huh, isn't there any easier way to achieve this than the two suggestions you are giving :=) ? Otherwise, I am afraid I will mailbomb this/other forum for a while... As I mentioned, I just need to be able to see the text. In the "worst" case maybe other colors can be used to than black/white if it makes a solution easier.

Actually you are seeing opaque black text on a transparent black background :) You either need to insert an opaque white rectangle into the SVG source (before everything else). Use software that understands alpha channels, or write code to 'flatten the image' (* this is non-trivial). > tit.addTranscodingHint( ImageTranscoder.KEY_BACKGROUND_COLOR, // ADDED MYSELF > Color.white ); This would be one of the bells and whistles not supported by the tiled transcoder. > The TIFF is now just 14000 byte ( suspiciously small...). What does the > KEY_WIDTH and KEY_HEIGHT mean ? This is the size of the image in pixels. So you are generating a 100x100 pixel image with 4 channels of 8 bits (1byte) each: 100*100*4*1 = 40,000 bytes uncompressed I could easily believe 14,000 bytes compressed. Although 100x100 may not be close to big enough for your needs. > By the way, setting the background Color.white is not seen in the result. > > Again, million thanks for your help !
