Adding OutputStream functionality to PDFImageWriter ---------------------------------------------------
Key: PDFBOX-1291 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1291 Project: PDFBox Issue Type: Improvement Components: PDFReader, Utilities Affects Versions: 1.6.0 Reporter: Patrick Lehmann I've got the problem that i don't want to write the created image data to a file because I use it for server side converstion of a pdf. It would be convenient to have an overloaded version of writeImage. Instead of the outputPrefix parameter you could use an OutputStream as parameter. ImageIO can handle this correctly so i suggest to do something like the following: public boolean writeImage(PDDocument document, String imageFormat, String password, int startPage, int endPage, OutputStream outStream, int imageType, int resolution) { // stays the same output = ImageIO.createImageOutputStream( outStream ); // stays the same } Without this change it is imposible to get the created image into RAM without reading it from the file again which is not the very best way to do so. It would be great if there is a way to extend this feature. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
