Problem Converting 8-Bit Palette Color Tiff Document

Question

I have an 8-bit, palette color tiff file that I am trying to convert to PDF with Adobe Acrobat.  However, when I convert the file the palette color pages come out entirely black.  The tiff file looks just fine in Microsoft Office Document Imaging.  Does Acrobat support the conversion of palette color tiffs or am I doing something wrong in either Acrobat or in creating the original tiff file?

Answer 1

Here's how I turn ARGB to RGB - should point you in the right direction
public static BufferedImage stripAlpha(BufferedImage image){
     try{
     BufferedImage raw_image=image;
     image = new BufferedImage(raw_image.getWidth(), raw_image.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB); //CHANGE THIS TO TYPE YOU NEED
     ColorConvertOp xformOp=new ColorConvertOp(null);
     xformOp.filter(raw_image, image);
     }catch(Exception e){
     LogWriter.writeLog("Exception "+e+" removing alpha from JPEG image");
     return image;
}
