John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-1963:
-------------------------------------
{quote}
Historically, its the reason I choose PDFBOX over a competing open source
product a few years ago, because I only got tiny images with the other one and
it wasn't possible to set the resolution (or I didn't find it in the API).
{quote}
The ability to set the DPI has been in the API for at least 4 years, almost
certainly longer. Perhaps I should have said "didn't understand how to use DPI
in PDFBox" which would have been accurate.

>
> PDFImageWriter is a subclass of PDFStreamEngine, however it never uses any of
> its functionality, the writeImage methods could be marked as static and
> behave in the same manner.
> The relationship between PDFImageWriter, RenderUtil, and ImageIOUtil no
> longer matches its historical origins and needs to be refactored.
