It is actually quite easy to call the various Java classes for image manipulation using <cfobject>. I recently made use of the Java Advanced Imaging API (JAI) for getting image information, thumbnail generation, format conversion, and border creation all server-side. I was thinking about writing a how-to article on it if there was interest.
