I have some code I inherited where a complex image is written onto an
off-screen JFrame-derived class.  I need to write the image (don't need the
JFrame) out to a file in standard format.  This would be easy if I had the
picture as a bitmap or (preferably) as an Image.  How do I do this?

Can somebody toss me a hint or point me to a book or some commercial code?

Thanks, John Hines jrhines@onramp.net
