> It's straightforward in theory to implement support for PCX and DCX. There's
> support for it in Commons Imaging as well as in ImageIO via TwelveMonkeys.
> In practise, however, I'm not really sure how implement support. We obviously
> want to OCR the images, but Tesseract has no support for the format. So where
> do we do the conversion to a BufferedImage? I tried to look for what is done
> to handle JBIG2 files but I can't find that anywhere.
