Constructor Detail

• TIFFImageWriteParam

  public TIFFImageWriteParam(Locale locale)

  Constructs a TIFFImageWriteParam instance for a given Locale.

  Parameters:

  locale - the Locale for which messages should be localized.

Method Detail

• isCompressionLossless

  public boolean isCompressionLossless()

  Overrides:

  isCompressionLossless in class ImageWriteParam

• setTIFFCompressor

  public void setTIFFCompressor(TIFFCompressor compressor)

  Sets the TIFFCompressor object to be used by the ImageWriter to encode each image strip or tile. A value of null allows the writer to choose its own TIFFCompressor.

  Note that invoking this method is not sufficient to set the compression type: setCompressionType() must be invoked explicitly for this purpose. The following code illustrates the correct procedure:

   TIFFImageWriteParam writeParam;
   TIFFCompressor compressor;
   writeParam.setCompressionMode(writeParam.MODE_EXPLICIT);
   writeParam.setTIFFCompressor(compressor);
   writeParam.setCompressionType(compressor.getCompressionType());
   

  If compressionType is set to a value different from that supported by the TIFFCompressor then the compressor object will not be used.

  If the compression type supported by the supplied TIFFCompressor is not among those in compressionTypes, then it will be appended to this array after removing any previously appended compression type. If compressor is null this will also cause any previously appended type to be removed from the array.

  Parameters:

  compressor - the TIFFCompressor to be used for encoding, or null to allow the writer to choose its own.

  Throws:

  IllegalStateException - if the compression mode is not MODE_EXPLICIT.

  getTIFFCompressor()

• getTIFFCompressor

  public TIFFCompressor getTIFFCompressor()

  Returns the TIFFCompressor that is currently set to be used by the ImageWriter to encode each image strip or tile, or null if none has been set.

  Returns:

  compressor the TIFFCompressor to be used for encoding, or null if none has been set (allowing the writer to choose its own).

  Throws:

  IllegalStateException - if the compression mode is not MODE_EXPLICIT.

  setTIFFCompressor(TIFFCompressor)

• setColorConverter

  public void setColorConverter(TIFFColorConverter colorConverter,
                                int photometricInterpretation)

  Sets the TIFFColorConverter object describing the color space to which the input data should be converted for storage in the input stream. In addition, the value to be written to the PhotometricInterpretation tag is supplied.

  Parameters:

  colorConverter - a TIFFColorConverter object, or null.

  photometricInterpretation - the value to be written to the PhotometricInterpretation tag in the root IFD.

  getColorConverter(), getPhotometricInterpretation()

• getColorConverter

  public TIFFColorConverter getColorConverter()

  Returns the current TIFFColorConverter object that will be used to perform color conversion when writing the image, or null if none is set.

  Returns:

  a TIFFColorConverter object, or null.

  See Also:

  setColorConverter(TIFFColorConverter, int)

• getPhotometricInterpretation

  public int getPhotometricInterpretation()

  Returns the current value that will be written to the Photometricinterpretation tag. This method should only be called if a value has been set using the setColorConverter method.

  Returns:

  an int to be used as the value of the PhotometricInterpretation tag.

  Throws:

  IllegalStateException - if no value is set.

  See Also:

  setColorConverter(TIFFColorConverter, int)

• unsetColorConverter

  public void unsetColorConverter()

  Removes any currently set ColorConverter object and PhotometricInterpretation tag value.
