------------------------------------------------------------------
Your refactoring that "needed" to be done took away the possibility to decide
on the type of the BufferedImage, especially for bitonal images, which is a
requirement for TIFF CCITT G4 compression. [Edit: ImageIOUtils uses the
imagetype to choose the G4 compression or the LZW compression, see the code and
PDFBOX-1734. G4 compression isn't allowed for RGB images even if they have just
b/w in it, because java doesn't count the # of actual colors] Please find a
solution. I also don't understand why you took away the PDPage parameter and
are using a page index instead, and then get a PDPage object again from that.
You also modified the TIFF testing code in TestImageIOUtils.java so that it
doesn't do the test anymore - the old code had one test for RGB and one test
for BITONAL. Now it has two tests - only the file names differ, not the
filetypes, so an identical image is created.

You also modified the TIFF testing code in TestImageIOUtils.java so that it
makes no sense anymore - the old code had one test for RGB and one test for
BITONAL. Now it has two tests - only the file names differ, not the filetypes.
Please correct this.

> 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.
