Yeah, and a fairly large change it would be, according to the source code. Is there a recommendation to use centimeters over inches, over was it just coded that way due to cultural preference (Europeans prefer metric; Americans prefer U.S. Units)? I am very willing to coordinate to help code an abstraction of the Resolution Unit. Meanwhile, I'm working to replace the Tiff Renderer with one of my own and override the Tiff Writer, but I can't get the ImageWriterRegistry.register() method to overrite with my custom ImageIOImageWriter class. Services loads the appropriate writers to ImageWriterRegistry, but default-preferred-order.properties is in the same package level as the class and I don't know if I want to mess with my ClassLoader to check in the base package level first. Unfortunately, due to getPriority() using the internal default properties file, the .imageio classes (priority 2000) are always preferred and my ImageWriter is never found; additionally, there is no way to set a priority when registering the ImageWriter. The comment for register() states "Registers a new ImageWriter implementation in the registry. If an ImageWriter for the same target MIME type has already been registered, it is overwritten with the new one." Which, due to priority, ends up being false. I have a solution for this requiring alterations to ImageWriterRegistry; my current workaround is a custom Renderer that doesn't use ImageWriterRegistry. >> I have read that producing a TIFF as one large strip / one entry per >> page per above results in a similar quality file with an overall smaller >> footprint. > Where have you read that? On the Sun forums: http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5161294 I haven't tested it myself, but it looks like it produces the sort of file I'm aiming for, and I'll see what I can do to incorporate portions of his solution into my own code. -Josh ----------------------------------------- The information in this message may be proprietary and/or confidential, and protected from disclosure.
