Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-1963: ----------------------------------------- An ideal method would be {code} renderImage(PDPage page, int imageType, int resolution) {code} all the other ones you introduced can be kept for convenience and can lead to this one, alternatively have the above for convenience / compatibility and have {code} renderImage(PDPage page, int imageType, float scale) {code} as the central one. Btw don't forget that its not just the users here, its also fellow apache projects that use PDFBOX. > PDFImageWriter doesn't make use of PDFStreamEngine > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-1963 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1963 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Utilities > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: John Hewson > Assignee: John Hewson > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
