  • Method Details

    • createThumbnail

      public static PDImageXObject createThumbnail(COSStream cosStream) throws IOException
      Creates a thumbnail Image XObject from the given COSBase and name.
      Parameters:
      cosStream - the COS stream
      Returns:
      an XObject
      Throws:
      IOException - if there is an error creating the XObject.
    • createFromFile

      public static PDImageXObject createFromFile(String imagePath, PDDocument doc) throws IOException
      Create a PDImageXObject from an image file, see createFromFileByExtension(File, PDDocument) for more details.
      Parameters:
      imagePath - the image file path.
      doc - the document that shall use this PDImageXObject.
      Returns:
      a PDImageXObject.
      Throws:
      IOException - if there is an error when reading the file or creating the PDImageXObject, or if the image type is not supported.
    • createFromFileByExtension

      public static PDImageXObject createFromFileByExtension(File file, PDDocument doc) throws IOException
      Create a PDImageXObject from an image file. The file format is determined by the file name suffix. The following suffixes are supported: JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, GIF, BMP and PNG. This is a convenience method that calls JPEGFactory.createFromStream(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.io.InputStream), CCITTFactory.createFromFile(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.io.File) or ImageIO.read(java.io.File) combined with LosslessFactory.createFromImage(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.awt.image.BufferedImage). (The later can also be used to create a PDImageXObject from a BufferedImage). Starting with 2.0.18, this call will create an image directly from a PNG file without decoding it (when possible), which is faster. However the result size depends on the compression skill of the software that created the PNG file. If file size or bandwidth are important to you or to your clients, then create your PNG files with a tool that has implemented the Zopfli algorithm, or use the two-step process mentioned above.
      Parameters:
      file - the image file.
      doc - the document that shall use this PDImageXObject.
      Returns:
      a PDImageXObject.
      Throws:
      IOException - if there is an error when reading the file or creating the PDImageXObject.
      IllegalArgumentException - if the image type is not supported.
    • createFromFileByContent

      public static PDImageXObject createFromFileByContent(File file, PDDocument doc) throws IOException
      Create a PDImageXObject from an image file. The file format is determined by the file content. The following file types are supported: JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, GIF, BMP and PNG. This is a convenience method that calls JPEGFactory.createFromStream(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.io.InputStream), CCITTFactory.createFromFile(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.io.File) or ImageIO.read(java.io.File) combined with LosslessFactory.createFromImage(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.awt.image.BufferedImage).

      Parameters:
      file - the image file.
      doc - the document that shall use this PDImageXObject.

    • createFromByteArray

      public static PDImageXObject createFromByteArray(PDDocument document, byte[] byteArray, String name) throws IOException
      Create a PDImageXObject from bytes of an image file. The file format is determined by the file content. The following file types are supported: JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, GIF, BMP and PNG. This is a convenience method that calls JPEGFactory.createFromByteArray(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, byte[]), CCITTFactory.createFromFile(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.io.File) or ImageIO.read(java.io.File) combined with LosslessFactory.createFromImage(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument, java.awt.image.BufferedImage).

    • getImage

      public BufferedImage getImage() throws IOException
      Returns the content of this image as an AWT buffered image with an (A)RGB color space. The size of the returned image is the larger of the size of the image itself or its mask. The returned images are cached via a SoftReference.
      Specified by:
      getImage in interface PDImage
      Returns:
      content of this image as a buffered image.
      Throws:
      IOException
    • getImage

      public BufferedImage getImage(Rectangle region, int subsampling) throws IOException
      Returns the content of this image as an AWT buffered image with an (A)RGB colored space. Only the subregion specified is rendered, and is subsampled by advancing the specified amount of rows and columns in the source image for every resulting pixel. Note that unlike the unparameterized version, this method does not cache the resulting image.
      Specified by:
      getImage in interface PDImage
      Parameters:
      region - The region of the source image to get, or null if the entire image is needed. The actual region will be clipped to the dimensions of the source image.
      subsampling - The amount of rows and columns to advance for every output pixel, a value of 1 meaning every pixel will be read
      Returns:
      subsampled content of the requested subregion as a buffered image.
      Throws:
      IOException
    • getRawImage

      public BufferedImage getRawImage() throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: PDImage
      Try to get the raw image as AWT buffered image with it's original colorspace. No color conversion is performed. You could use the returned BufferedImage for draw operations. But this would be very slow as the color conversion would happen on demand. You rather should use PDImage.getImage() for that. This method returns null if it is not possible to map the underlying colorspace into a java.awt.ColorSpace. Use this method if you want to extract the image without loosing any color information, as no color conversion will be performed. You can alwoys use PDImage.getRawRaster(), if you want to access the raw data even if no matching java.awt.ColorSpace exists
      Specified by:
      getRawImage in interface PDImage
      Returns:
      the raw image with a java.awt.ColorSpace or null
      Throws:
      IOException
    • getRawRaster

      public WritableRaster getRawRaster() throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: PDImage
      Return the image data as WritableRaster. You should consult the PDColorSpace returned by PDImage.getColorSpace() to know how to interpret the data in this WritableRaster. Use this if e.g. want access to the raw color information of a PDDeviceN image.
      Specified by:
      getRawRaster in interface PDImage
      Returns:
      the raw writable raster for this image
      Throws:
      IOException
    • getStencilImage
