> Looks like the Level is actually 2 though I am not sure. I take that back - Level 2 supports DCTDecode so far although there are caveats (limited baseline JPEG only) I shouldn't have replied while in a hurry and 5 minutes late for a meeting.
The problem is that the way this implemented internally right now relies on a code path in which JDK doesn't have the JPEG source image and doesn't know its a JPEG, so this wasn't an option. Also its going through a code path which isn't specifically for generating postscript, so can't take advantage of that filter. This could with some work be fixed for the specific case of printing a JPEG image using DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.JPEG and probably should be when we have the opportunity. >is it possible to get a direct ps dump from a Java 2D graphics JPanel ? Yes, you can turn a JPanel, or any component UI into postscript. Component.printAll(Graphics g) can be passed a graphics obtained when using the SERVICE_FORMATTED.PRINTABLE doc flavor. ie you implement java.awt.print.Printable as calling jpanel.printall(g) and specify the Printable object as the print data. -phil. =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA2D-INTEREST".
