Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-1734:
-----------------------------------------

What I can do for myself isn't important, because it is already done, see the 
attached patch. 

What I want to do is that PDFBOX can create TIFF files, have the dpi inside, 
and use the correct compression i.e. G4 for b/w images and something else (e.g. 
LZW) for the rest.

> ImageIoUtil.WriteImage doesn't work with tiff images

> ImageIoUtil.WriteImage brings an I/O error exception when trying to write a 
> tiff file. Debugging shows that the cause is "Bits per sample must be 1 for 
> RLE compression!". This means that the compression used (the first one of the 
> following list, returned by writerParams.getCompressionTypes() ) is only 
> allowed for bitonal images.
> CCITT RLE
> CCITT T.4
> CCITT T.6
> LZW
> JPEG
> ZLib
> PackBits
> Deflate
> EXIF JPEG
> After correcting this, the next problem was that tiff images didn't have the 
> proper resolutions. I added that too. Yes it uses the com.sun.* classes; 
> however there is no other way. Even apache xmlgraphics uses them, although in 
> a very different way than I do
> https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/commons/tags/commons-1_3_1/src/java/org/apache/xmlgraphics/image/writer/imageio/ImageIOTIFFImageWriter.java
> writeImage() has a parameter "int imageType" which is never used. Why?
