Creating image from a subform

Is it possible for a user to fill out a subform, then click a button that creates a .jpg or any type of image of that subform? I know this might go way past the possibilities of LC, but it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks!

Hi,
do you mean something like a screenshot? Then the answer is no.
Users can use the snapshot tool in Reader to copy a selected area into the clipboard.
This can be saved as an image with a image processing app such MS Paint and then reimported with an image field.

Disk Utility fails to create image from double layer DVD

I burned a double-layer DVD using iDVD. It plays fine on the mac and on set-top DVD players. However, when I try to create an image of the DVD using Disk Utility, I get "Can't create image 'name.cdr' (input/output error)". I've tried re-burning the original disk, but it gets the same error when trying to create an image. I've also tried each of the image types, all with the same result.

I was having similar problems, although I don't think my issues was related to a double-layer DVD. What worked for me was selecting File > New > Disk Image from Folder. Select the DVD in the file open/save dialog with the same options you used before (e.g., DVD/CD master, etc).

Disk Utility: Create Image from Volume Without Unused Space

I'm trying to create a disk image from a mounted volume (flash memory in a video camera) but I don't want to write to it later, it's just for archiving. The problem is that the size of the original volume is 16 GB, so every image I create is huge, even if there is less than a 1 GB used.
For example, I only have two short clips on there, about 1.1 GB used. When I create a new .dmg from the volume, the file is 5.28 GB and when I mount it it tells me the size of the volume is 15.3 GB. Clearly I understand why this is happening, it's creating a bit for bit copy of the original volume, but I don't need all that space since I'm never going to write to it.
In disk utility it won't let me resize the image (it's grayed out). What do I do?

I actually don't understand why this is happening (when I do this the created disk image only uses the space it needs) but you can get around it as follows. First create a blank read/write disk image to the size you want and then restore the memory card to that image.

Problem creating image from a data vector

Hello i have a problem in this aplication.
I get a image from a web cam. I want to put the original image in a file and the negative image in another file (in this example is not the negative image, is just a white image). The problem is when i use setData method. The image become black. If I use setFormat method the new image is the original image.
Here is the code with problems:
imageBuffer = frameGrabbingControl.grabFrame();
theData = new int[dataLength];
theData = (int[]) imageBuffer.getData();
for (int y = 0; y < videoHeight - imageScanSkip; y+=imageScanSkip) {
for (int x = 1; x < videoWidth - imageScanSkip; x+=imageScanSkip)
theData[y*videoWidth+x]=Integer.parseInt("FFFFFF",16);
Buffer b1=new Buffer(); //This is the new buffer in which i want to put the new pic
b1.setData(theData);
//here i create the 2 files frst from the original buffer and second from the new buffer b1
Image img = (new BufferToImage((VideoFormat)imageBuffer.getFormat()).createImage(imageBuffer));
Image img1 = (new BufferToImage((VideoFormat)b1.getFormat()).createImage(b1));
BufferedImage buffImg = new BufferedImage(img.getWidth(null), img.getHeight(null), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
BufferedImage buffImg1 = new BufferedImage(320,240, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D g = buffImg.createGraphics();
Graphics2D g1 = buffImg1.createGraphics();
g.drawImage(img, null, null);
g1.drawImage(img1, null, null);
try{
ImageIO.write(buffImg, "jpg", new File("c:\\webcam.jpg"));
ImageIO.write(buffImg1, "jpg", new File("c:\\webcam1.jpg"));
catch (Exception e){}
the webcam1.jpg file is black(it should be white).
If i put "b1.setFormat(imageBuffer.getFormat());" the webcam1.jpg will be same the file as webcam.jpg

How to create Image from 8-bit grayscal pixel matrix

Hi,
I am trying to display image from fingerprintscanner.
To communicate with the scanner I use JNI
I've wrote java code which get the image from C++ as a byte[].
To display image I use as sample code from forum tring to display the image.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=20&threadID=628129
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.color.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.io.*;

import javax.swing.*;
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
final int H = 400;
final int W = 600;
byte[] pixels = createPixels(W*H);
BufferedImage image = toImage(pixels, W, H);
display(image);
ImageIO.write(image, "jpeg", new File("static.jpeg"));
public static void _main(String[] args) throws IOException {
BufferedImage m = new BufferedImage(1, 1, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_GRAY);
WritableRaster r = m.getRaster();
System.out.println(r.getClass());
static byte[] createPixels(int size){
byte[] pixels = new byte[size];
Random r = new Random();
r.nextBytes(pixels);
return pixels;
static BufferedImage toImage(byte[] pixels, int w, int h) {
DataBuffer db = new DataBufferByte(pixels, w*h);
WritableRaster raster = Raster.createInterleavedRaster(db,
w, h, w, 1, new int[]{0}, null);
ColorSpace cs = ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_GRAY);
ColorModel cm = new ComponentColorModel(cs, false, false,
Transparency.OPAQUE, DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE);
return new BufferedImage(cm, raster, false, null);
static void display(BufferedImage image) {
final JFrame f = new JFrame("");
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.getContentPane().add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(image)));
f.pack();
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){

f.setVisible(true);
And I see only white pixels on black background.
Here is description of C++ method:
GetImage
Syntax: unsigned char* GetImage(int handle)
Description: This function grabs the image of a fingerprint from the UFIS scanner.
Parameters: Handle of the scanner
Return values: Pointer to 1D-array, which contains the 8-bit grayscale pixel matrix line by line.
here is sample C++ code which works fine to show image in C++
void Show(unsigned char * bitmap, int W, int H, CClientDC & ClientDC)
int i, j;
short color;
for(i = 0; i < H; i++) {
     for(j = 0; j < W; j++) {
     color = (unsigned char)bitmap[j+i*W];
     ClientDC.SetPixel(j,i,RGB(color,color,color));
Will appreciate your help .

Create Image from Stream in Applet via Servlet

First of all, I apologize if this isn't posted to the proper forum, as I am dealing with several topics here. I think this is more of an Image and I/O problem than Applet/Servlet problem, so I thought this forum would be most appropriate. It's funny...I've been developing Java for over 4 years and this is my first post to the forums! :D
The problem is I need to retrieve a map image (JPEG, GIF, etc) from an Open GIS Consortium (OGC) Web Map Server (WMS) and display that image in an OpenMap Applet as a layer. Due to the security constraints on Applets (e.g., can't connect to a server other than that from which it originated), I obviously just can't have the Applet create an ImageIcon from a URL. The OpenMap applet will need to connect to many remote WMS compliant servers.
The first solution I devised is for the applet to pass the String URL to a servlet as a parameter, the servlet will then instantiate the URL and also create the ImageIcon. Then, I pass the ImageIcon back to the Applet as a serialized object. That works fine...no problems there.
The second solution that I wanted to try was to come up with a more generic and reusable approach, in which I could pass a URL to a servlet, and simply return a stream, and allow the applet to process that stream as it needs, assuming it would know what it was getting from that URL. This would be more usable than the specific approach of only allowing ImageIcon retrieval. I suppose this is actually more of a proxy. The problem is that the first few "lines" of the image are fine (the first array of buffered bytes, it seems) but the rest is garbled and pixelated, and I don't know why. Moreover, the corruption of the image differs every time I query the server.
Here are the relevant code snippets:
=====================Servlet====================
    /* Get the URL String from the request parameters; This is a WMS
     * HTTP request such as follows:
     * http://www.geographynetwork.com/servlet/com.esri.wms.Esrimap?
     *      VERSION=1.1.0&REQUEST=GetMap&SRS=EPSG:4326&
     *      BBOX=-111.11361,3.5885315,-48.345818,71.141304&
     *      HEIGHT=480&...more params...
     * It returns an image (JPEG, JPG, GIF, etc.)
    String urlString =
        URLDecoder.decode(request.getParameter("wmsServer"),
                          "UTF-8");
    URL url = new URL(urlString);
    log("Request parameter: wmsServer = " + urlString);
    //Open and instantiate the streams
    InputStream urlInputStream = url.openStream();
    BufferedInputStream bis = new
        BufferedInputStream(urlInputStream);
    BufferedOutputStream bos = new
        BufferedOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
    //Read the bytes from the in-stream, and immediately write them
    //out to the out-stream
    int read = 0;
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    while((read = bis.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1) {
        bos.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
    //Flush and close
    bos.flush();
    urlInputStream.close();
    bis.close();
    bos.close();
    .=====================Applet=====================
    //Connect to the Servlet
    URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
    conn.setUseCaches(false);
    conn.setRequestProperty("header", "value");
    conn.setDoOutput(true);
    //Write the encoded WMS HTTP request
    BufferedWriter out =
        new BufferedWriter( new OutputStreamWriter(
            conn.getOutputStream() ) );
    out.write("wmsServer=" + URLEncoder.encode(urlString, "UTF-8"));
    out.flush();
    out.close();
    //Setup the streams to process the servlet response
    BufferedInputStream bis = new
        BufferedInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
    ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    //Read the bytes and immediately write to the out-stream
    int read = 0;
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    while((read = bis.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1) {
        bos.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
    //Flush and close
    bis.close();</code>
    bos.flush();</code>
    byte[] imageBytes = bos.toByteArray();
    //Create the Image/ImageIcon
    Toolkit tk = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
    Image image = tk.createImage(imageBytes);
    imageIcon = new ImageIcon(image);
    Could this be an offset problem in my buffers? Is there some sort of encoding/decoding I am missing somewhere?
Thanks!
Ben

Without having a probing look, I was wondering why you do the following...
while((read = bis.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1) {
bos.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
while((read = bis.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1) {
bos.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
}Your int 'read' holds the number of bytes read in but you then specify buffer.length in your write methods?!? why not use read? otherwise you will be writing the end of the buffer to your stream which contains random memory addresses. I think thats right anyway...

Create image from byte[]array on server side

Hello everyone..
I'm developing an application which will take snapshots from a mobile device, and send it to my pc via bluetooth. I have my own midlet which uses the phone camera to take the snapshot, i want to transfer that snapshot to my pc.
The snapshot is taken is stored in an array byte.
The image can be created on the phone itself with no problem using : image.createImage(byte[])
my problem is that when i send the array byte via bluetooth, and receive it on the server, i cannot create the image using the :image.createImage() code
The connection is good since i have tested by writing the content of the array in a text file.
Piece of midlet code:
            try{
                 stream = (StreamConnection)Connector.open(url);
                 OutputStream ggt = stream.openOutputStream();
                 ggt.write(str);
                 ggt.close();
            }catch(Exception e){
                 err1 = e.getMessage();
            }where str is my array byte containing the snapshot
And on my server side:
Thread th = new Thread(){
               public void run(){
                    try{
                         while(true){
                              byte[] b = new byte[in.read()];
                              int x=0;
                              System.out.println("reading");
                              r = in.read(b,0,b.length);
                              if (r!=0){
                                   System.out.println(r);
                                   img = Image.createImage(b, 0, r);
                                                        //other codes
                                   i get this error message:

Please anyone can help me here? is this the way to create the image on the server side? thx a lot

here is exactly how i did it :

                                   File xd = new File("D:/file.jpg");
                                   ImageIO.write(bImage, "jpg", xd);
                                   System.out.println("image sent");

Error message when trying create image from RAID

I am trying to backup my RAID (697 GB) by creating an image (Disk Utility) on an external firewire drive. The settings are Read Only - I get an error message "image/device is too large"
Is my RAID too large at 697GB to create an image?
Thanks,
Steven
Mac OS X (10.4.3)

You have all 4 drives striped on the external drive?
I'm not sure it will work -- an image may need to have 2x its actual size during creation. I'd have to check to be 100% sure.
I think, though, it would be a lot better if you just did a pure "dupe," of the files from one volume onto another, rather than creating an image. It will be a ton easier.

Create Image from Array of Pixels

Greetings:
I am trying to create an industry standard image (jpeg, tiff) from a raw data format. I am getting mixed up as to which classes to use. The data itself is in binary little-endian. I am using a ByteBuffer to readInt()s in the correct byte order. It appears that I am reading all of the input data ok, but I can't get the actual image creation part of the code. I would appreciate any insight offered as I think this likely not the best approach to solving the problem. Thank you for your time.
My code is as follows:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.color.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.imageio.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.nio.*;

        System.out.println(fixedOrder.length);
        DataBuffer db = new DataBufferInt(fixedOrder, w*h);

        return new BufferedImage(cm, raster, false, null);
    static void display(BufferedImage image) {

}

I have modified my code to be easier to read and it now compiles and builds without errors, however the image it produces is all black and the jpeg it writes is 0 bytes.

OutOfMemory while creating Images from camera's pictures

Hi there,
I am trying to create a javax.microedition.lcdui.Image object from a JPG image created by the 8120 camera. So far I’ve tried simulator only. I use JDE 4.3.0.1r.
Here is a code from the body of a thread launched from the fileJournalChanged function:
FileConnection file = null;
InputStream is = null;
Image capturedImage = null;
try {
file = (FileConnection) Connector.open("file://" + m_sImagePath, Connector.READ_WRITE);
is = file.openInputStream();
capturedImage = Image.createImage(is);
Well, the Image.createImage(is) throws “OutOfMemory” exception, which seems reasonable, given the 1600x1200 dimensions of the pictures captured by simulator/camera. I understand that unpacked bitmap for such an image occupies around 5MB, which seems to be too big for a system to handle when freeMemory() from java.lang.Runtime reports just over 36MB.
However, I wonder whether there is a way to get around this problem?
Since I am an inexperienced BlackBerry developer, it is quite possible that I am overlooking an alternative way of creating javax.microedition.lcdui.Image object from a 1600x1200 image captured by the BlackBerry’s camera.
Regards,
Aharon.

Steve:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Were you able at any time to load directly from your camera into iPhoto? If so, did that stop after running some software updaters?
is there a way to get iPhoto to load these into its library as if it were taking them from a camera?
As long as the image files are not located inside the iPhoto Library folder you can just drag the folder they are in into iPhoto's open Organize window and they will be imported. If they are in multiple folders then each folder will result in a new roll with those photos.
If the files are inside the iPhoto Library folder, move them to the desktop and import from there.

Unable to create cd from Image file

I downloaded the Solaris 8 for Intel, unzipped the files. I have been unsuccessful creating an image file for the file sol-8-1_01-fcs-bin-ia-v1. I have tried various CD writing applications.
I was able to create images from the other files.
Thanks

You are not supposed to create an image file from the unzipped data. These unzipped files are image
files! You just have to rename them using the proper file extension so that your CD-R burning software
recognizes them as cd image files. (common extension are .ISO or .RAW; check with your CD recording
software)

Generating full-size image from thumbnail using BLOB DB images

Hi all,
Assuming that all necessary steps were taken in other posts and tutorials to display images on a web page from BLOB objects stored in an Oracle 10g DB, how is it possible to set the size of the created images (from the servlet that creates the image file from BLOB) so that it is smaller than the actual image in the DB. the user would then have to click the image to open the full image.
would this be done by possibly creating 2 servlets, one that displays a smaller version, and one that displays the actual image?
i don't see how this can be done since the url property of each image is bound to the url of the servlet. If the thumbnail has a url pointing to image produced by thumbnail servlet, would i assign an action handler for clicking the image that redirects to a url given by the full size image servlet? or should i use an image hyperlink instead?
any help is always appreciated!

Suggest you take this one step at a time.
1. Create a database and store your images in it. (Or write the upload mechanism if you need it).
2. Display your full size images.
3. Display your full size images as thumbnail size. (Performance will not be good but you'll have results.) Creator allows you to set image size independantly of the size of the underlying image.
4. Modify the servlet you wrote in step three to optionally reduce the resolution (or quality) based on an input parameter.

SIU fails to create images

Using SIU 10.6.7 on a machine updated to 10.6.8, trying to create a NetInstall image of a 10.6.3 Retail disc. SIU fails consistently, even after a reinstall of the server admin tools.
This is what I get from the console log:
12/8/11 1:12:37 PM          System Image Utility[154]          Assistant - Selected source:"NetInstall of OS X 10.6.3 Installer".
12/8/11 1:12:58 PM          [0x0-0x13013].com.apple.server.SystemImageUtility[154]          objc[154]: Class SIUDiskUtility is implemented in both /Applications/Server/System Image Utility.app/Contents/MacOS/System Image Utility and /Applications/Server/System Image Utility.app/Contents/Library/Automator/Define Image Source.action/Contents/MacOS/Define Image Source. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.
12/8/11 1:13:02 PM          System Image Utility[154]          Something didn't really work out here...
12/8/11 1:13:02 PM          System Image Utility[154]          Failed to create image from script createNetInstall.sh.

Try setting the debug level to verbose in the SIU preferences. This should give more information about the failure in the run log for the image build.
You should also be looking for the SIU logs instead of the console. They're in ~/Library/Logs (you access them through Console.app as well.)
I've never actually seen the "Something didn't really work out here..." message occur. It means that SIU failed to communicate with its helper tool that builds the images.

Loading images from jar

Found a good solution that works from running in command line, i.e java -jar or normally or using web start and not getting missing image URL loading from jar
It deserves some dukes :) Also, someone can improve on it to make sure it's 100%
Asume the function is in a package AWTUtilities class
Many forums provide close solution but they all forget the vital replacing back slash with forward slash when reading from jar!! :)
That's what got me stump for a good day trying to figure why it should load the images, but it's not...

   // The subtlety in getResource() is that it uses the
   // Class loader of the class used to get the rousource.
   // This means that if you want to load a resource from
   // your JAR file, then you better use a class in the
   // JAR file.
   public static Image getImageResource( String name ) throws java.io.IOException {
      return getImageResource( AWTUtilities.class, name );
   public static Image getImageResource(Class base, String name ) throws java.io.IOException {
      if (name != null) {
         Image result = null;
         // A must, else won't pick the path properly within the jar!!
         // For file system forward or backward slash is not an issue
         name = name.replace('\\', '/');
         // For loading from file system using getResource via base class
         URL imageURL = base.getResource( name );
         // For loading from jar starting from root path using getResource via base class
         if (imageURL == null) {
            imageURL = base.getResource("/" + name );
         // For loading from file system using getSystemResource
         if (imageURL == null) {
            imageURL = ClassLoader.getSystemResource( name );
         // For loading from jar starting from root path using getSystemResource
         if (imageURL == null) {
            imageURL = ClassLoader.getSystemResource("/" + name );
         // Found the image url? If so, create the image and return it...
         if ( imageURL != null ) {
            Toolkit tk = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
            result = tk.createImage( (ImageProducer) imageURL.getContent() );
         return result;
      else {
         return null;

The problem is that you use the wrong classloader. The system default classloader is the one that launched the webstart utility. It doesn't contain your classes or jars. You have to get hold of the classloader for your classes.
Here's my solution as a schetch: probably it won't compile but you get the idea:
// 1: get hold of the classloader for my classes:
// - this class cannot possibly be loaded by anyone else:
Object dummy = new Object(){
public String toString() { return super.toString(); }
ClassLoader cl = dummy.getClass().getClassLoader();
// 2: get an inputstream to read resource from from jar:
InputStream is = cl.getResourceAsStream("images/myimage.gif");
// 3: create image from inputstream
// can be done in many different ways using tmp-files etc.
ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(is);
Image img = icon.getImage();
