However, there is no way to make Java[*] save a JPEG image having some resolution information. When we (or other Java developers) attempt to do that we get: --- Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.MarkerSegment.getAttributeValue(MarkerSegment.java:131) at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JFIFMarkerSegment.updateFromNativeNode(JFIFMarkerSegment.java:240) at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JFIFMarkerSegment.<init>(JFIFMarkerSegment.java:133) at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGMetadata.setFromNativeTree(JPEGMetadata.java:2184) at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGMetadata.setFromTree(JPEGMetadata.java:2149) at com.xmlmind.fo.graphic.GraphicFactoryImpl.setResolution(GraphicFactoryImpl.java:453) at com.xmlmind.fo.graphic.GraphicFactoryImpl.writeImage(GraphicFactoryImpl.java:374) ... --- Therefore we are really sorry but we'll not be able to implement this enhancement in the next version of XFC. --- [*] The situation is probably different for .NET.
