Converting Image to RenderedImage

Hi All
I'm relatively new to Java, and my current problem is as follows:
I'm trying to convert an Image object to a RenderedImage. If anyone has any clue how to do this, I'd be very greatful for your input!
Alternatively, does anyone know how to output an Image to a File?
Thanks!
Dr Nick

BufferedImage implements the RenderedImage interface. So what you may want to do is convert your Image to a BufferedImage. They will function the same.
Use ImageIO in the API:
static BufferedImage read(ImageInputStream stream)
Returns a BufferedImage as the result of decoding a supplied ImageInputStream with an ImageReader chosen automatically from among those currently registered. Here's something you may try.
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(file.toURL());You could also do a cast.
Image i = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("MyImage.jpg");
BufferedImage bi = new BufferedImage (i.getWidth(this), i.getHeight(this), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
bi = (BufferedImage)i;(Note you may skip BufferedImage instantiation on the second line and set the new variable to null)
You may also get a Graphics object on BufferedImage object and draw the Image object on it:
g2d.drawImage(i, 0, 0, bi.getWidth(this), bi.getHeight(this), this);
.Let us know if this works for you.

Convert image into TIFF 4

I have a requirement to convert images from TIFF 6 to TIFF 4. I have been able to convert to TIFF without compression. However, to reduce the file sizes I need to implement compression_group4. Although it is listed as being supported . . . it does not appear to be.
Any ideas?

(1) Are you using compression? I can create TIFFs but not compress them using .COMPRESSION_GROUP4
(2) When I try and use JAI's ImageCodec (specifically TIFFEncodeParam) and specify COMPRESSION_GROUP4 I get a run-time error: "java.lang.Error: Unsupported compression scheme specified."
(3) This error seems to be generated by the line .setCompression, as I have been able to generate the error without specifying an image. (ie: it's not related to this image not being supported)
(A) Here is the code I'm using:
OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(destinationFile); //where destinationFile is a File object representing the saved file
TIFFEncodeParam param = new TIFFEncodeParam();
param.setCompression(TIFFEncodeParam.COMPRESSION_GROUP4);
ImageEncoder enc = ImageCodec.createImageEncoder("TIFF", os, param);
enc.encode(src); //where src is a RenderedImage Object
os.close();
any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Error while converting Image -to- PDF and then to PDF/A

Hi,
I'm trying to convert a Image format(JPEG,bmp,tiff) to PDF and then to PDF/A. I could able to convert Image to PDF successfully.
I'm getting the below error while converting the PDF(that was generated) to PDF/A.
Caused by: com.adobe.livecycle.output.exception.OutputException: Input Document is a already flat PDF Document
at com.adobe.printSubmitter.PrintServer.transformPDF(PrintServer.java:307)

Error OCCURRED: ALC-DSC-000-000: com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSCException: Internal error.
Please give me the solution to convert PDF to PDF/A?

I've just read a footnote in the API documentation which indicates that the transformPDF function cannot be used for this purpose:
"GS_Enterprise said on Nov 24, 2007 at 12:03 PM :
Please note that the parameter "inPdfDoc" for transformPDF assumes that the stream content is an XFA-based PDF, and that it's not an XFA-based PDF with a PDF background (also known as "XFA foreground"). In other words, this function does not convert any input PDF to PDF/A, but only those PDFs generated from an XFA template which does not include any static PDF content as a background."

Converting Images to CMYK for Print Publication

When in my workflow should I be converting images to CMYK for print publication?
Currently, I shoot RAW photographs with my DSLR in Adobe RGB, import the images into Photoshop for manipulation and then convert the final, sized image to CMYK before placing it in my Indesign document. Before going to print, I convert my files to PDF using the [PDF/X-1a:2001] preset. I use a calibrated system with a profile set for my monitor.
Since many of my pictures have shades of green, I'm often disappointed with the conversion to CMYK because I lose saturation and brightness. Am I doing anything wrong? Is there a better way of preserving the quality of colour in my images when going to a commercial printer?

To see in InDesign what color shifts will occur, use View=>Proof Colors.
I would also recommend View=>Overprint Preview.
Yes there are color shifts when converting RGB to CMYK, but those are due to the fact that the gamut of CMYK is significantly less than AdobeRGB or even sRGB. The same color shifts going to CMYK will occur whether you convert the image in Photoshop or in InDesign during PDF export or at the RIP.
Keeping the color in ICC color managed RGB has the advantage that last minute changes can be made as to what CMYK printing conditions are used, i.e. all CMYK is not the same. Furthermore, if you convert RGB to CMYK early in the workflow, you lose the ability to maintain the color gamut for display of the PDF as well as for printing to high fidelity color devices, i.e., offset or digital (especially inkjet) devices that have extra colorants such as light cyan, light magenta, orange, and/or green to dramatically expand the gamut. Once you lose the gamut in your imagery via conversion to CMYK, you can't go back.

Keep the same name while converting images to PDF

I am using Automator to convert images to PDF. The new images are in a different folder, but it is asking for an output file name. Can't I tell it to just keep the same name as the old file?

leaving the exact format, can you explain what does it mean by correctly formed Arabic fonts ?
What I did is created a text document in Arabic and converted it to PDF and the same file is converted back to word and the results were all junk..

How to convert image to binary format

Hi all,
We have developed an Employee search mobile web application in .net which is hosted on an exposed IP server, we need to show the employee data along with the image of the employee on mobile.
When we run this application through our desktop we are able to see the image of the employee since we are doing this through intranet , but when we try to access the same from any mobile device we are able to see only the data but no image, since we are doing this through internet(exposed server).
Please suggest some way to get this image,
is there any function module in ABAP which can convert image to binary format
so that we export binary data to .net application

Can I batch convert images in a folder hierarchy?

I can't seem to be able to create an Action or Droplet in Photoshop CS5 that will batch convert images in situ in a hierarchy of folders. In the Photoshop Actions you have to specify an explicit destination, and there's no "save back to the same place" option that I can find.
I used to be able to do this with ImageReady CS2, but Tiger is going to kill that. Help!

If you want to give it a try, paste the following text into a new file in ExtendScript Toolkit (part of Photoshop’s installation, Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities/ExtendScript Toolkit CS4 or /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities-CS5/ExtendScript Toolkit CS5) and save it as a jsx-file into Photoshop’s Presets/Scripts-folder.
After restarting Photoshop the Script should be available under File > Scripts and can be assigned a Keyboard Shortcut directly, recorded into an Action, (in CS4 and CS5) be used in a Configurator-Panel or started from ExtendScript Toolkit directly.
// 2011, use it at your own risk;
#target photoshop
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
// get document-path and -name; thanks to xbytor;
     var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
     var myDocName = myDocument.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
     var myPath = myDocument.path;
// save for web options;
     var webOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
     webOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.COMPUSERVEGIF;
     webOptions.optimized = true;
     webOptions.colorReduction = ColorReductionType.ADAPTIVE;
     webOptions.dither = Dither.NONE;
     webOptions.quality = 100;
     webOptions.includeProfile = true;
     webOptions.matteColor = new RGBColor();
     webOptions.matteColor.red = 255;
     webOptions.matteColor.green = 255;
     webOptions.matteColor.blue = 255;
// export;
     myDocument.exportDocument(new File(myPath+"/"+myDocName+".gif"), ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, webOptions);
Edit:
The Script could be recorded into an Action.
It would also be possible to create a Script that offers a dialog for File- or Folder-selection and subsequently operates on all selected/contained files of specified formats, but that would be a different approach from the Droplet.

Converting image sequence

Dear Sirs,
when I convert image sequence into a ProRes 4444 + Alpha using Compressor i noticed a difference in brightness with the original content.
This happens every time i elaborate in After Effect a special effect.
The images in output from AF are identical to the original, after the conversion there is this difference.
I tried to create a custom ProRes 4444 + Alpha setting changing to "none" the gamma conversion into the Quick Time settings panel, nothing changes.
Can you help me to find the right solution?
thank you
Aldo

Thanks, Nick, that already doubles or more my knowledge.
As far as final form, could be one of many. Leading candidates are QuickTime (.mov), MPEG (.mp4) or iPhone (.m4v). (Is iPhone format just a special case of MPEG-4?)
I'm generating the frames as .png files using Perl's GD library. They are very compact and in fact the primitive QuickTime movies I make from them, with all media included in the file, are still very small. (E.g. a 600-frame movie is half a meg.) Converting each frame to JPG actually increases the size dramatically (could spend more time tweaking the JPG conversion).
At first I thought .png would be good because I could play them easily in an iPhone app. But then I started thinking perhaps it would be better to turn them into a movie and then tell the iPhone app "play movie" rather than handle all the timing of rendering each frame myself. And synchronization of audio... a big can o' worms to roll your own.
I have had the experience twice of upgrading QuickTime to QuickTime Pro only to see the Pro-ness vanish in the next QT upgrade. @#$%! But you may be right that QT Pro would suffice.

How to convert image to array pixel values in java

I would like to know how to convert image into arrary of pixels in java ?
which API should i use ?
please give me link to a sample program !

I find the most efficient way to just walk over the image and call getRGB(x,y) on every pixel, more so than Pixelgrabber. If someone knows a more efficient way, give me a beep.

Inverted Colours after converting images

Hey Guys,
i got a huge Problem. At my Office I have an Intel iMac 7.1. I have to convert .tiff-files into .Jpg and sometimes resize them into low resolution.
I'm using the Automator for it (Finder same Problem).
The converted Images are inverted. Funny thing is: If i put these images onto a Win PC, the files a normal, not inverted.
If I edit the converted images on the iMac again,they will displayed at the iMac normally again. However these files are inverted on a normal PC.
Do you understand me? I need to fix this bug, because i cannot work if there are 1. inverted colours in e.g. resized pictures and 2. i dont know if they have normal colours on a PC or not..
If someone of you could help me, it would be amazing..
While looking at goole, i just found one page where it says that this is an old bug from Mac OSX. But i dont have that prob at my Macbook and I never saw that somewhere..
Sorry for my mistakes, not my foreign language..
Greetz and THANKS
