Right, that's the downside of Image I/O. But then, the XML-based approach to metadata is also very powerful. Another option that would give you a lot of control but possibly with a simpler API is Apache Sanselan (incubating). http://incubator.apache.org/sanselan > Never mind, it works well now; though I'm not 100% sure of what I > changed to make it work. > > I'll use it in another place where I have shortly used another open > source PNG encoder that is probably getting old by now. > But let me say thank you once more. > > Jean-Francois El Fouly Jeremias Maerki --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache XML Graphics Project URL: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
