I don't mean to sound harsh, but if your post starts off with "Waaaaaaaay off topic"... then it really shouldn't be posted.
A page on the Sun site about handling images of all kinds, and there's a code sample for TIFF... http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jai/iio.html It will get you to an Image object, and then from there you can pass it to the JPEGImageEncoder or whatever. As I said before (off the list), the information is already out there, you just have to go get it. I found this by searching "java reading tiff image files" on www.google.com and it was the third link down. But I hope you get the solution you need. I already know that the answer wont be from this list... Arron. Jerry Jalenak wrote: >Michael, > >Thanks for the reply. My problem is fairly basic, but I can't seem to figure >it out.
