Question

I am new to image processing in java .
I was given a task to re-size and scale images image of a web site

Is there a simple Library that will do this task?
a library where i have to download a jar – added to my project ?
I prefer not to be forced to install codecs and files to the windows.

I need the library to support only the basic functions

Lib.cropImage();
Lib.resizImage();
Lib.scaleImage()

I already found a library called JAI but I can’t find the jar to download it.
Am I missing something ?

Answer 1

You can use the standard Image class part of Java libraries.
Scaling images should be fairly easy by using Image.getScaledInstance(int width, int height, int hints)
