I would like to convert a BufferedImage
to an java.awt.Image
.
My source-image is tif so I use JAI to read it as PlanarImage
:
PlanarImage source = JAI.create("fileload", IMG_DIR + tagImgName);
I then save it as an objects attribute as a BufferedImage
tagImg = source.getAsBufferedImage();
For .pdf-Export (via iText) I need it as java.awt.Image
Thanks!
java.awt.image.BufferedImage is already a subclass of java.awt.Image, so you shouldn't need any casting or converting. You can use the BufferedImage in place of a Image.
You can do directly this:
Image tagImg = source.getAsBufferedImage();
// use tagImg with iText library here
Assuming you mean java.awt.image.BufferedImage
, it already subclasses java.awt.image.Image
- so you shouldn't need to do anything.
