Currently the Java[tm] built-in image toolkit has priority over image toolkit add-ons such as Jimi. Therefore, there is no way to say: Java[tm] don't handle TIFFs, Jimi is here to do that. The only thing I can do for you is to add a system property which, once set, will prevent Java[tm] to handle TIFFs (and optionally other formats). Please confirm if you or other users are interested in this workaround. --- PS: To my knowledge, Java[tm] 1.5 supports TIFFs. We don't really know to what extents... To my knowledge, MacOSX 10.4 (Tiger) includes Java[tm] 1.5. The problem is that we have not tested XXE against Tiger (because we haven't received our Tiger DVD from Apple yet!). We hope to do this for V2.10 (before end of this month).
