GIF Encoder: Software that lets you save an image as a *.gif file. Software that lets you save an image as a *.png file.
This same technique will work for JPEG, and *.png. For a fuller example of creating a transparent image file from scratch and saving it to disk see Masker.
Unfortunatly GIFEncoding was not supported prior to JDK 1.6 due to LZW patent issues with Unisys. For older Javas, the most straight-forward solution would be to use Java 1.4.2+ and ImageIO with png or jpg instead. Here is the source for a GIFEncoder that works on older Javas. view
