public class TIFFImageWriteParam
extends ImageWriteParam

A subclass of ImageWriteParam allowing control over the standard TIFF compression types.

Supported Compression Type Name
Compression Type Description Reference
CCITT RLE Modified Huffman compression TIFF 6.0 Specification, Section 10
CCITT T.4 CCITT T.4 bilevel encoding/Group 3 facsimile compression TIFF 6.0 Specification, Section 11
CCITT T.6 CCITT T.6 bilevel encoding/Group 4 facsimile compression TIFF 6.0 Specification, Section 11
JPEG "New" JPEG-in-TIFF compression TIFF Technical Note #2
Deflate "Zip-in-TIFF" compression DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification
PackBits Byte-oriented, run length compression TIFF 6.0 Specification, Section 9

LZW and old-style JPEG compression as described in sections 13 and 22, respectively of the TIFF 6.0 Specification are not supported.

The canWriteTiles and canWriteCompressed methods will return true; the canOffsetTiles and canWriteProgressive methods will return false.

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 decompressor)
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.

Parameters:
decompressor - the TIFFCompressor to be used for decoding, or null to allow the writer to choose its own.
See Also:
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:
decompressor the TIFFCompressor to be used for decoding, or null if none has been set (allowing the writer to choose its own).
See Also:
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.
See Also:
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.

setColorConverter(TIFFColorConverter, int)
