-----------------------------------------

Here's the code I used:
{code}
    public static boolean writeImage(BufferedImage image, String imageFormat, 
Object outputStream, int resolution,
            float quality)
            throws IOException
    {
        // convert image format String to Apache Imaging constant
        imageFormat = imageFormat.toUpperCase();
        if ("TIF".equals(imageFormat))
        {
            imageFormat = "TIFF";
        }
        ImageFormat foundImageFormat = null;
        for (ImageFormats imf : ImageFormats.values())
        {
            if (imf.getExtension().equals(imageFormat))
            {
                foundImageFormat = imf;
                break;
            }
        }
        if (foundImageFormat == null)
        {
            LOG.error("imageFormat " + imageFormat + " is unknown");
            return false;
        }
        
        // prepare parameters (resolution and tiff compression if applicable)
        Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
        params.put(ImagingConstants.PARAM_KEY_PIXEL_DENSITY, 
                PixelDensity.createFromPixelsPerInch(resolution, resolution));
        if (foundImageFormat == ImageFormats.TIFF)
        {
            // CCITT G4 compression is better for b/w images
            if (image.getType() == BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_BINARY)
            {
                params.put(ImagingConstants.PARAM_KEY_COMPRESSION, 
                        TiffConstants.TIFF_COMPRESSION_CCITT_GROUP_4);
            }
            else
            {
                params.put(ImagingConstants.PARAM_KEY_COMPRESSION, 
                        TiffConstants.TIFF_COMPRESSION_LZW);
            }
        }        
        
        try
        {
            Imaging.writeImage(image, (File) outputStream, foundImageFormat, 
params);
            return true;
        }
        catch (ImageWriteException ex)
        {
            LOG.error("ImageWriteException", ex);
            return false;
        }
    }
{code}

>             Project: Commons Imaging
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Format: PNG, Format: TIFF
>    Affects Versions: 1.0
>         Environment: W7
>            Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
>            Priority: Minor

> I tried to use Apache Imaging for the PDFBOX project (PDFBOX-1734) because of 
> problems with setting the tiff resolution in java imageio.
> While the code is pretty nice, I found that the generated images are 
> sometimes much bigger in size than the ones generated by java imageio.
> Example:
> pdfbox-1870-devicen3-01.png 50 KB (imageio)
> pdfbox-1870-devicen3.pdf-1.png 70 KB (imaging)
> pdfbox-1870-devicen3-01.tif 401 KB (imageio)
> pdfbox-1870-devicen3.pdf-1.tif 1063 KB (imaging)
