hi
thanks for ur reply . can u plz tell me were to insert the code here
Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("C:\\image.gif");
MediaTracker mediaTracker = new MediaTracker(new Container());
mediaTracker.addImage(image, 0);
mediaTracker.waitForID(0);
// determine thumbnail size from WIDTH and HEIGHT
int thumbWidth = Integer.parseInt("120");
int thumbHeight = Integer.parseInt("75");
double thumbRatio = (double)thumbWidth / (double)thumbHeight;
int imageWidth = image.getWidth(null);
System.out.println("imageWidth "+ imageWidth);
int imageHeight = image.getHeight(null);
double imageRatio = (double)imageWidth / (double)imageHeight;
if (thumbRatio < imageRatio) {
thumbHeight = (int)(thumbWidth / imageRatio);
} else {
thumbWidth = (int)(thumbHeight * imageRatio);
// draw original image to thumbnail image object and
// scale it to the new size on-the-fly
BufferedImage thumbImage = new BufferedImage(thumbWidth,
thumbHeight, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D graphics2D = thumbImage.createGraphics();
graphics2D.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION,
RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR);
graphics2D.drawImage(image, 0, 0, thumbWidth, thumbHeight, null);
// save thumbnail image to OUTFILE
BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(new
FileOutputStream(args[1]));
JPEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(out);
JPEGEncodeParam param = encoder.
getDefaultJPEGEncodeParam(thumbImage);
int quality = Integer.parseInt("75");
quality = Math.max(0, Math.min(quality, 100));
param.setQuality((float)quality / 100.0f, false);
encoder.setJPEGEncodeParam(param);
encoder.encode(thumbImage);
out.close();
System.out.println("Done.");
