Hi

I want to convert a JPEG image file into TIFF file with good compression ratio ie., Group IV.

I have tried using sun's JAI package. It converts the JPEG file to TIFF file, buts the resulted TIFF files size is too large.
Ex. 30 KB JPG into 1 MB TIFF file

I am using JAI.create(operation, RenderedOp, outputFile, "TIFF", null)

In the documentation, they have specified that, due to some patent reasons, JAI currently not supports compression.

Is it possible using this extended TIFF-JAI package?

Is there any other way to do the same?

Thanks in advance!
