I am converting from tiff to png and I have tried adding various libraries as dependencies but to no avail (jai-imageio, tom gibara’s, javaVP8). I continue to get this warning:

Nov 26, 2012 6:30:37 PM com.google.appengine.api.images.dev.LocalImagesService init
WARNING: No image reader found for format "tif". An ImageIO plugin must be installed to use this format with the DevAppServer.

Any suggestions on how I may be able to make this work outside of the GAE environment?

    “The development server uses your local machine to perform the capabilities of the Images service.”
