Angus, let me know if you need any more help with this - I was the "culprit" who submitted the support for the CCFFilter to FOP. We needed it as we render lots of incoming faxes into PDF. But they are Group 4 encoded.

NASTY. For some reason, too, JAI will not read a tiff that we compress using group 3 1D or 2D encoding. For the time being will continue to use png images, however, still unhappy with the amount of memory and processing time this requires.
