Admin Control Panel v2.0

✎ Editing: TODO ← Back

Ideas which I may implement in some release regarding jbib.c:

- routine which prepares incompletely decoded images for Xlib

- use more efficient resolution reduction code suggested by
    Dr. Klaus Bartz <bartzkau@kou3.ina.de>

- investigate whether there is a standard way of embedding JBIG
    into TIFF and implement it (see also RFC 2301)

- test for and eliminate warning messages from compilers
    other than GCC

- multichannel (e.g., RGB) support, PPM support

The following wishes may have become less important since the release
of jbig85.c:

- compile-time option to remove progressive encoding and
    resolution-reduction support (in the interest of reducing code
    size and attack surface for software patent lawyers)

- investigate how to best deal with broken BIEs that contain
    multiple NEWLEN marker segments, which are not permitted by ITU-T
    T.85, but which have been observed coming from some fax machines;
    possible options for jbg_newlen(): use first, last, or minimum
    value

- version of jbg_newlen() for dealing with BIEs that are split
    into several blocks

- call-back function for progress meter

Ideas which I may implement in some future release regarding jbig85.c:

- man pages for pbmtojbg85 and jbgtopbm85
