[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-4184) [PATCH]: Support simple lossless compression of 16 bit RGB images

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4184?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16617995#comment-16617995 ]

Thanks, the change makes sense, but I'd like to have a "no longer failing" test for this, i.e. where the generated PDF looks different than the image due to the missing ICC profile. Another problem is that {{testCreateLosslessFromImageCMYK}} now fails. I wonder if the ICC profile is needed for CMYK? I also see the danger that PDFs get bigger, if each image now has a (different) ICC profile. And what about b/w images?

> The attached patch add support to write 16 bit per component images correctly. I've integrated a test for this here: [https://github.com/rototor/pdfbox-graphics2d/commit/8bf089cb74945bd4f0f15054754f51dd5b361fe9]
> It only supports 16-Bit TYPE_CUSTOM with DataType == USHORT images - but this is what you usually get when you read a 16 bit PNG file.
> This would also fix [https://github.com/danfickle/openhtmltopdf/issues/173].
> The patch is against 2.0.9, but should apply to 3.0.0 too.
> There is still some room for improvements when writing lossless images, as the images are currently not efficiently encoded. I.e. you could use PNG encodings to get a better compression. (By adding a COSName.DECODE_PARMS with a COSName.PREDICTOR == 15 and encoding the images as PNG). But this is something for a later patch. It would also need another API, as there is a tradeoff speed vs compression ratio.
