+<bold>NOTE</bold>: It is important to call <code>dispose()</code> 
+on the JPEG reader and writer objects when they are no longer needed, as 
+they consume significant native resources which are not adequately recovered 
+by garbage collection.  Both reader and writer call <code>dispose()</code> 
+in their finalizers, but those finalizers may not be called before the native

+<h2>
+<a name=metadata>JPEG Metadata</a>
+</h2>
+JPEG metadata consists of the data contained in marker segments in a JPEG
+stream.  The image metadata object returned from a read describes the
+contents of the marker segments between the <code>SOI</code> marker and 
+the <code>EOI</code> marker for that image.  The image metadata object 
+passed into a write determines the contents of the stream between the 
+<code>SOI</code> marker and the <code>EOI</code> marker for that image, 
+subject to the controls in any <code>ImageWriteParam</code>.
+
+<p>
+Stream metadata is used only for tables-only images found (or to be 
+placed) at the beginning of a stream containing abbreviated images.  
+Tables-only images are not treated as images and do not consume an 
+image index.  The stream metadata object returned from a read describes the
+contents of the marker segments between the <code>SOI</code> marker and 
+the <code>EOI</code> marker for the single tables-only image at the 
+beginning of the stream, if one is present.  If no tables-only image is 
+present at the front of the stream, the <code>getStreamMetadata</code> 
+method of <code>ImageReader</code> returns <code>null</code>.  If 
+stream metadata is provided to the writer, a single tables-only image 
+containing the tables from the stream metadata object will be written at 
+the beginning of the stream.  If the stream metadata object contains no
+tables, default tables will be written.  As the sole purpose of stream
+metadata is for specifying tables-only images at the front of abbreviated 
+streams, the stream metadata argument is useful only on the 
+<code>ImageWriter.prepareWriteSequence</code> method.  It is ignored on all 
+other methods.
+
+<p> 
+The <code>ImageWriter.getDefaultStreamMetadata</code> method returns an 
+object containing the tables from the <code>ImageWriteParam</code> argument, 
+if it is a <code>JPEGImageWriteParam</code> and contains tables.  Otherwise, 
+the returned object will contain default tables.
+
+<p>The <code>ImageWriter.getDefaultImageMetadata</code> method returns a 
+metadata object containing <bold>no</bold> tables if the 
+<code>ImageWriteParam</code> argument contains tables.  Otherwise the 
+returned metadata object will contain default visually lossless tables.  
+Of course, only a <code>JPEGImageWriteParam</code> may contain tables.
+
+<p>
+If <code>ignoreMetadata</code> is set to <code>true</code> when the input
+is set on the reader, stream metadata will not be available, but image
+metadata will.
+
+<p>
+<h2>
+<a name=abbrev>Abbreviated Streams</a>
+</h2>
+Both the reader and the writer retain their tables from one operation to the 
+next, thus permitting the use of abbreviated streams quite naturally, with a 
+few minor restrictions:  
+<ol>
+  <li> Abbreviated streams may contain only one tables-only image, which must 
+       come first in the stream.  Subsequent tables-only images will cause
+       undefined behavior.</li>
+  <li> Abbreviated streams must be read fully and in order.  No random access
+       is allowed, in either direction.  The same image may be read multiple 
+       times.  If a call is made with an image index that is not the same as
+       or one greater than the most recent call (or 0 if no calls have been
+       made), then an <code>IllegalArgumentException</code> is thrown.</li>
+</ol>
+These restrictions mean that streams may contain abbreviated images 
+interspersed with images containing tables.  As required by JPEG, any tables
+appearing in the stream override previous tables, regardless of the source
+of the previous tables.  
+
+<p>
+Note that once a tables-only image has been read, it's contents is available
+as stream metadata from the reader until either another tables-only image
+is read from another stream or the reader is reset.  Changing the input does
+not reset the stream metadata.  This is useful for reading the tables from
+one file, then changing the input to read an abbreviated stream containing 
+a sequence of images.  The tables will be used automatically, and will remain
+available as "stream" metadata.
+
+<p>
+Abbreviated streams are written using the sequence methods of 
+<code>ImageWriter</code>.  Stream metadata is used to write a tables-only 
+image at the beginning of the stream, and the tables are set up for use, using
+<code>ImageWriter.prepareWriteSequence</code>.  If no stream metadata is 
+supplied to <code>ImageWriter.prepareWriteSequence</code>, then no 
+tables-only image is written.  If stream metadata containing no tables is
+supplied to <code>ImageWriter.prepareWriteSequence</code>, then a tables-only
+image containing default visually lossless tables is written.
+
+<h2>
+<a name=tables>Sources of Tables</a>
+</h2>
+<p>
+Images are written with tables if tables are present in their metadata objects 
+or without them if no tables are present in their metadata objects.  If no
+metadata object is present then the tables are written.  The tables used for 
+compression are taken from one of the following sources, which are consulted 
+in order: 
+<ol>
+  <li> If there is an <code>ImageWriteParam</code> and the compression mode is
+       set to <code>EXPLICIT</code>, default tables constructed using the
+       quality setting are used.  They are written only if the metadata 
+       contains tables or if there is no metadata, but they replace the 
+       tables in the metadata.</li>
+  <li> If there is an <code>ImageWriteParam</code> and the compression mode is
+       set to <code>DEFAULT</code>, default visually lossles tables are used.
+       They are written only if the metadata contains tables or if
+       there is no metadata, but they replace the tables in the
+       metadata.</li>
+  <li> Otherwise the compression mode on the <code>ImageWriteParam</code> must
+       be MODE_COPY_FROM_<code>METADATA</code>, in which case the following
+       are used:
+    <ol>
+      <li> the tables in the image metadata, if present</li>
+      <li> the tables in the stream metadata, if present</li>
+      <li> the tables in the <code>JPEGImageWriteParam</code>, if present</li>
+      <li> default visually lossless tables</li>
+    </ol> Tables are written only if they are taken from image metadata.
+  </li>
+</ol>
+
+This ordering implements the design intention that tables should be included 
+in <code>JPEGImageWriteParam</code>s only as a means of specifying tables 
+when no other source is available, and this can occur only when writing to an
+abbreviated stream without tables using known non-standard tables for 
+compression.
+
+<p>
+When reading, tables in a <code>JPEGImageReadParam</code> are consulted only 
+if tables have not been set by any previous read.  Tables set from a 
+<code>JPEGImageReadParam</code> are overridden by any tables present in the 
+stream being read.
+
+<p>
+Note that if no image metadata object is specified for a particular image, a 
+default object is used, which includes default tables.
+
+<p>
+<h2>
+<a name=color>Colorspace Transformations and Conventional Markers</a>
+</h2>
+Colorspace transformations are controlled by the destination type for
+both reading and writing of images.  When <code>Raster</code>s are
+read, no colorspace transformation is performed, and any destination type 
+is ignored.  A warning is sent to any listeners if a destination type is 
+specified in this case.  When <code>Raster</code>s are written, any 
+destination type is used to interpret the bands.  This might result in a
+JFIF or Adobe header being written, or different component ids being written 
+to the frame and scan headers.  If values present in a metadata object do not 
+match the destination type, the destination type is used and a warning is sent 
+to any listeners.
+
+<p>
+
+When reading, the contents of the stream are interpreted by the usual
+JPEG conventions, as follows:
+
+<ul>
+  <li> If a JFIF <code>APP0</code> marker segment is present, the colorspace
+       is known to be either grayscale or YCbCr.  If an <code>APP2</code>
+       marker segment containing an embedded ICC profile is also present, then
+       the YCbCr is converted to RGB according to the formulas given in the
+       JFIF spec, and the ICC profile is assumed to refer to the resulting RGB
+       space.
+  <p>
+  <li> If an Adobe <code>APP14</code> marker segment is present, the 
+       colorspace is determined by consulting the <code>transform</code> flag.
+       The <code>transform</code> flag takes one of three values:
+    <ul>
+      <li> 2 - The image is encoded as YCCK (implicitly converted from
+           CMYK on encoding).
+
+      <li> 1 - The image is encoded as YCbCr (implicitly converted from RGB
+           on encoding).
+
+      <li> 0 - Unknown.  3-channel images are assumed to be RGB, 4-channel 
+           images are assumed to be CMYK.
+    </ul>
+   <p>
+  <li> If neither marker segment is present, the following procedure is
+       followed: Single-channel images are assumed to be grayscale, and
+       2-channel images are assumed to be grayscale with an alpha channel.
+       For 3- and 4-channel images, the component ids are consulted.  If these
+       values are 1-3 for a 3-channel image, then the image is assumed to be
+       YCbCr. If these values are 1-4 for a 4-channel image, then the image 
+       is assumed to be YCbCrA.  If these values are > 4, they are checked 
+       against the ASCII codes for 'R', 'G', 'B', 'A', 'C', 'c'.  These can 
+       encode the following colorspaces:
+       <p>
+       <br>RGB
+       <br>RGBA
+       <br>YCC (as 'Y','C','c'), assumed to be PhotoYCC
+       <br>YCCA (as 'Y','C','c','A'), assumed to be PhotoYCCA
+       <p>
+       Otherwise, 3-channel subsampled images are assumed to be YCbCr, 
+       3-channel non-subsampled images are assumed to be RGB, 4-channel 
+       subsampled images are assumed to be YCCK, and 4-channel, non-subsampled
+       images are assumed to be CMYK.
+
+  <p>
+  <li> All other images are declared uninterpretable and an exception is
+       thrown if an attempt is made to read one as a 
+       <code>BufferedImage</code>.  Such an image may be read only as a 
+       <code>Raster</code>.  If an image is interpretable but there is no Java
+       <code>ColorSpace</code> available corresponding to the encoded 
+       colorspace (<italic>e.g.</italic> YCbCr), then 
+       <code>ImageReader.getRawImageType</code> will return <code>null</code>.
+</ul>
+
+Once an encoded colorspace is determined, then the target colorspace is 
+determined as follows:
+
+<ul>
+  <li> If a destination type is not set, then the following default
+       transformations take place after upsampling: YCbCr (and YCbCrA) images 
+       are converted to RGB (and RGBA) using the conversion provided by the
+       underlying IJG library and either the built-in sRGB 
+       <code>ColorSpace</code> or a custom RGB <code>ColorSpace</code> object
+       based on an embedded ICC profile is used to create the output
+       <code>ColorModel</code>.  PhotoYCC and PhotoYCCA images are not
+       converted.  CMYK and YCCK images are currently not supported.</li>
+
+  <li> If a destination image or type is set, it is used as follows:
+       If the IJG library provides an appropriate conversion, it is used.
+       Otherwise the default library conversion is followed by a colorspace 
+       conversion in Java.</li>
+
+  <li> Bands are selected AFTER any library colorspace conversion.  If a 
+       subset of either source or destination bands is used, then the default 
+       library conversions are used with no further conversion in Java,
+       regardless of any destination type.</li>
+
+  <li> An exception is thrown if an attempt is made to read an image in an 
+       unsupported jpeg colorspace as a <code>BufferedImage</code> 
+       (<italic>e.g.</italic> CMYK).  Such images may be read as
+       <code>Raster</code>s.  If an image colorspace is unsupported or
+       uninterpretable, then <code>ImageReader.getImageTypes</code> will
+       return an empty <code>Iterator</code>.   If a subset of the raw bands
+       are required, a <code>Raster</code> must be obtained first and the
+       bands obtained from that. </li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+For writing, the color transformation to apply is determined as
+follows:
+
+<p>
+If a subset of the source bands is to be written, no color conversion is 
+performed.  Any destination, if set, must match the number of bands that will 
+be written, and serves as an interpretation of the selected bands, rather than 
+a conversion request.  This behavior is identical to that for 
+<code>Raster</code>s.  If all the bands are to be written and an image 
+(as opposed to a <code>Raster</code>) is being written, any destination type 
+is ignored and a warning is sent to any listeners.
+
+<p>
+If a destination type is used and any aspect of the metadata object, if there 
+is one, is not compatible with that type, the destination type is used, the 
+metadata written is modified from that provided, and a warning is sent to 
+listeners.  This includes the <code>app0JFIF</code> and 
+<code>app14Adobe</code> nodes.  The component ids in the <code>sof</code> and 
+<code>sos</code> nodes are not modified, however, as unless a 
+<code>app0JFIF</code> node is present, any values may be used.
+<p>
+
+When a full image is written, a destination colorspace will be 
+chosen based on the image contents and the metadata settings, according to 
+the following algorithm:
+
+<p>
+
+If no metadata object is specified, then the following defaults apply:
+
+<ul>
+  <li> Grayscale images are written with a JFIF <code>APP0</code> marker
+       segment.  Grayscale images with alpha are written with no special
+       marker.  As required by JFIF, the component ids in the frame and
+       scan header is set to 1.
+
+  <li> RGB images are converted to YCbCr, subsampled in the chrominance
+       channels by half both vertically and horizontally, and written with a
+       JFIF <code>APP0</code> marker segment.  If the <code>ColorSpace</code>
+       of the image is based on an <code>ICCProfile</code> (it is an instance
+       of <code>ICC_ColorSpace</code>, but is not one of the standard built-in 
+       <code>ColorSpaces</code>), then that profile is embedded in an 
+       <code>APP2</code> marker segment.  As required by JFIF, the 
+       component ids in the frame and scan headers are set to 1, 2, and 3.
+
+
+  <li> RGBA images are converted to YCbCrA, subsampled in the
+       chrominance channels by half both vertically and horizontally, and
+       written without any special marker segments.  The component ids 
+       in the frame and scan headers are set to 1, 2, 3, and 4.
+
+  <li> PhotoYCC and YCCAimages are subsampled by half in the chrominance
+       channels both vertically and horizontally and written with an
+       Adobe <code>APP14</code> marker segment and 'Y','C', and 'c' (and
+       'A' if an alpha channel is present) as component ids in the frame
+        and scan headers.
+</ul>
+
+Default metadata objects for these image types will reflect these settings.
+
+<p>
+
+If a metadata object is specified, then the number of channels in the
+frame and scan headers must always match the number of bands to be 
+written, or an exception is thrown.  <code>app0JFIF</code> and 
+<code>app14Adobe</code> nodes may appear in the same metadata object only 
+if the <code>app14Adobe</code> node indicates YCbCr, and the component ids 
+are JFIF compatible (0-2).  The various image types are processed in the 
+following ways:
+
+<br>
+
+(All multi-channel images are subsampled according to the sampling factors 
+in the frame header node of the metadata object, regardless of color space.)
+
+<ul>
+  <li> Grayscale Images:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node is present in the metadata object,
+           a JFIF <code>APP0</code> marker segment is written.
+      <li> If an <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present in the metadata 
+           object, it is checked for validity (<code>transform</code> must be
+           <code>UNKNOWN</code>) and written.
+      <li> If neither node is present in the metadata object, no special 
+           marker segment is written.
+    </ul>
+
+  <li> Grayscale Images with an Alpha Channel:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node is present in the metadata object,
+           it is ignored and a warning is sent to listeners, as JFIF does not
+           support 2-channel images.
+      <li> If an <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present in the metadata
+           object, it is checked for validity (<code>transform</code> must be
+           <code>UNKNOWN</code>) and written.  If <code>transform</code> is
+           not <code>UNKNOWN</code>, a warning is sent to listeners and the
+           correct transform is written.
+      <li> If neither node is present in the metadata object, no special 
+           marker segment is written.
+    </ul>
+
+  <li> RGB Images:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node is present in the metadata object,
+           the image is converted to YCbCr and written with a JFIF 
+           <code>APP0</code> marker segment.  If the <code>ColorSpace</code>
+           of the image is based on a non-standard ICC Profile, then that
+           profile is embedded in an <code>APP2</code> marker segment.  If the
+           <code>ColorSpace</code> is not based on a non-standard ICC Profile,
+           but an <code>app2ICC</code> node appears in the metadata, then an
+           <code>APP2</code> marker segment is written with the appropriate
+           standard profile.  Note that the profile must specify an RGB color
+           space, as the file must be JFIF compliant.
+
+      <li> If an <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present in the metadata
+           object, the image is converted according to the color transform
+           setting and written with an Adobe <code>APP14</code> marker
+           segment.  Component ids are written just as they appear in the
+           frame and scan headers.  The color transform must be either YCbCr
+           or <code>UNKNOWN</code>.  If it is <code>UNKNOWN</code>, the image
+           is not color converted.
+
+      <li> If neither node is present, the component ids in the frame
+           header are consulted.  If these indicate a colorspace as described
+           above, then the image is converted to that colorspace if possible.  
+           If the component ids do not indicate a colorspace, then the
+           sampling factors are consulted.  If the image is to be subsampled,
+           it is converted to YCbCr first.  If the image is not to be
+           subsampled, then no conversion is applied.  No special marker
+           segmentss are written.
+    </ul>
+
+  <li> RGBA images:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node is present in the metadata object,
+           it is ignored and a warning is sent to listeners, as JFIF does not
+           support 4-channel images.
+
+      <li> If an <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present in the metadata
+           object, the image is written with an Adobe <code>APP14</code> marker
+           segment.  No colorspace conversion is performed.  Component ids
+           are written just as they appear in the frame and scan  headers.
+           The color transform must be <code>UNKNOWN</code>.  If it is 
+           not, a warning is sent to listeners.
+
+      <li> If no <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present, the component ids in
+           the frame header are consulted.  If these indicate a colorspace as
+           described above, then the image is converted to that colorspace if
+           possible.  If the component ids do not indicate a colorspace, then
+           the sampling factors are consulted.  If the image is to be
+           subsampled, it is converted to YCbCrA.  If the image is not to be
+           subsampled, then no conversion is applied.  No special marker
+           segments are written.
+    </ul>
+
+  <li> PhotoYCC Images:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node is present in the metadata object,
+           the image is converted to sRGB, and then to YCbCr during encoding,
+           and a JFIF <code>APP0</code> marker segment is written.
+
+      <li> If an <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present in the metadata
+           object, no conversion is applied, and an Adobe <code>APP14</code>
+           marker segment is written.  The color transform must be YCC.  If it
+           is not, a warning is sent to listeners.
+
+      <li> If neither node is present in the metadata object, no conversion
+           is applied, and no special marker segment is written.
+    </ul>
+
+  <li> PhotoYCCA Images:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node is present in the metadata object,
+           it is ignored and a warning is sent to listeners, as JFIF does not
+           support 4-channel images.
+
+      <li> If an <code>app14Adobe</code> node is present in the metadata
+           object, no conversion is applied, and an Adobe <code>APP14</code>
+           marker segment is written.  The color transform must be
+           <code>UNKNOWN</code>.  If it is not, a warning is sent to
+           listeners.
+
+      <li> If neither node is present in the metadata object, no conversion

+<h2>
+<a name=thumbs>Thumbnail Images</a>
+</h2>
+Thumbnails are supported by the use of JFIF and JFIF extension marker segments.
+Thumbnails provided on the write methods determine the thumbnails that will be 
+included.  <code>app0JFIF</code> and <code>app0JFXX</code> nodes present in 
+the metadata do not contain any thumbnail pixel data.  However, the kinds of 
+thumbnails written depend on the contents of the metadata object, as follows.  
+Any thumbnail which is to be written as an indexed or RGB image and which is 
+larger than 255 by 255 will be clipped, not scaled, to 255 by 255.  Thumbnails 
+written as JPEG images may be any size.  A warning is sent to any listeners 
+whenever a thumbnail is clipped.
+<ul>
+  <li> If there is a single thumbnail, it is processed as follows:
+    <ul>
+      <li> If the thumbnail image is an RGB palette image, it is processed as
+           follows:
+        <ul>
+          <li> If no <code>app0JFXX</code> node is present in the metadata, or
+               the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbPalette</code> element, a
+               palette thumbnail is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+               segment.
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains another thumbnail form (RGB or JPEG), the palette
+               image is expanded to RGB and the indicated thumbnail form is
+               written.  
+        </ul>
+
+      <li> If the thumbnail image is an RGB image, it is processed as follows:
+        <ul>
+          <li> If no <code>app0JFXX</code> node is present in the metadata,
+               the thumbnail is written as part of the JFIF <code>APP0</code>
+               marker segment. 
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbRGB</code> element, an
+               RGB thumbnail is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+               segment.
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbJPEG</code> element, a
+               JPEG thumbnail is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+               segment.
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbPalette</code> element, an
+               RGB thumbnail is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+               segment and a warning is sent to any listeners.
+        </ul>
+
+      <li> If the thumbnail image is a grayscale image, it is processed as
+           follows:
+        <ul>
+          <li> If no <code>app0JFXX</code> node is present in the metadata,
+               the thumbnail is expanded to RGB and written as part of the
+               JFIF <code>APP0</code> marker segment. 
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbRGB</code> element, the thumbnail is
+               expanded to RGB and written in a separate <code>JFXX</code> RGB
+               marker segment.
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbJPEG</code> element, a
+               JPEG thumbnail is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+               segment.
+          <li> If the first <code>app0JFXX</code> node present in the metadata
+               contains a <code>JFIFthumbPalette</code> element, a
+               JPEG thumbnail is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+               segment and a warning is sent to any listeners.
+        </ul>
+
+      <li> Any other thumbnail image types are ignored and a warning is sent
+           to any listeners.
+    </ul>
+
+  <li> If there are multiple thumbnails, each one is processed as above, except
+       that no thumbnail is placed in the JFIF <code>APP0</code> segment, and
+       the <code>app0JFXX</code> node consulted for each thumbnail is the
+       <code>app0JFXX</code> node from the metadata that occurs in the same
+       sequence as the thumbnail.  <italic>I.e.</italic> the first
+       <code>app0JFXX</code> node applies to the first thumbnail, the second
+       node to the second thumbnail, and so on.  If there are fewer
+       <code>app0JFXX</code> nodes in the metadata than thumbnails, then 
+       those thumbnails are considered to have no matching
+       <code>app0JFXX</code> node.  An RGB thumbnail with no matching
+       <code>app0JFXX</code> node is written in a JFXX <code>APP0</code> marker
+       segment.  A grayscale thumbnail with no matching
+       <code>app0JFXX</code> node is written as a JPEG image to a JFXX 
+       <code>APP0</code> marker segment.
+</ul>
+<p>
+
+Note that as the only mechanism for storing thumbnails is via the
+JFIF or JFIF extension marker segments, only grayscale or RGB images 
+may have thumbnails.  If thumbnails are present when writing any other type 
+of image, the thumbnails are ignored and a warning is sent to any warning
+listeners.
+
+<p>
+<h2>
+<a name=prog>Progressive Encoding</a>
+</h2>
+
+Progressive encoding must be enabled on the <code>ImageWriteParam</code>
+passed in to a write operation, or the image will be written sequentially,
+regardless of the scan headers included in the metadata object.  If 
+progressive encoding is enabled and set to copy from metadata, then
+the sequence of scan headers from the metadata is used to write the 
+image.  If progressive encoding is enabled and set to use a default, 
+then the scans in the metadata are ignored and a default set of scans 
+is used.  Progressive encoding always forces optimized Huffman tables to
+be used.  Any Huffman tables present in the metadata will be ignored,
+and a warning will be sent to any warning listeners.
+
+If Huffman-table optimization is requested on the <code>ImageWriteParam</code>,
+all Huffman tables in the metadata or in the <code>ImageWriteParam</code> 
+itself are ignored, and a warning will be sent to any warning listeners if 
+any such tables are present.
+
+<p>
+<h2>
+<a name=tree>Native Metadata Format Tree Structure and Editing</a>
+</h2>
+
+The DTDs below describe just the trees of metadata objects actually returned
+by the <code>IIOMetadata</code> object.  They do not include nodes 
+corresponding to <code>SOI</code>, <code>EOI</code>, or <code>RST</code> 
+markers, as these parsing delimiters do not carry any meaningful metadata.  
+<p>
+
+The first node is always a <code>JPEGvariety</code> node.  In the
+<code>javax_imageio_jpeg_image_1.0</code> version of the JPEG metadata
+format, this node may have one child, an <code>app0JFIF</code> node,
+indicating that the JPEG stream contains a JFIF marker segment and related
+data, or no children, indicating that the stream contains no JFIF marker.
+In future versions of the JPEG metadata format, other varieties of JPEG
+metadata may be supported (e.g. Exif) by defining other types of nodes
+which may appear as a child of the <code>JPEGvariety</code> node.
+<p>
+
+(Note that an application wishing to interpret Exif metadata given
+a metadata tree structure in the <code>javax_imageio_jpeg_image_1.0</code>
+format must check for an <code>unknown</code> marker segment with a tag
+indicating an <code>APP1</code> marker and containing data identifying it
+as an Exif marker segment.  Then it may use application-specific code to
+interpret the data in the marker segment.  If such an application were
+to encounter a metadata tree formatted according to a future version of
+the JPEG metadata format, the Exif marker segment might not be
+<code>unknown</code> in that format - it might be structured as a
+child node of the <code>JPEGvariety</code> node.  Thus, it is important
+for an application to specify which version to use by passing the string
+identifying the version to the method/constructor used to obtain an
+<code>IIOMetadata</code> object.)
+
+<p>
+
+On reading, <code>JFXX</code> and <code>app2ICC</code> nodes occur as 
+children of an <code>app0JFIF</code> node.
+This is true regardless of where the JFXX <code>APP0</code> and 
+<code>APP2</code> marker segments actually occur in the stream.  The ordering 
+of nodes within the <code>markerSequence</code> node corresponds to the 
+ordering of marker segments found in the JPEG stream.  
+<p>
+On writing, any <code>JFXX</code> and <code>app2ICC</code> nodes must 
+occur as children of an <code>app0JFIF</code> node, itself a child of a 
+<code>JPEGvariety</code> node, which must always be the first node.
+(If the stream is not to be JFIF compliant, no <code>app0JFIF</code> node
+should be provided, and the <code>JPEGvariety</code> node should have no
+children.)  Any 
+JFIF <code>APP0</code>, JFXX <code>APP0</code>, and <code>APP2</code> marker 
+segments are written first, followed by all Adobe <code>APP14</code>, 
+<code>APPn</code>, <code>COM</code> and unknown segments in the 
+order in which their corresponding nodes appear in the 
+<code>markerSequence</code> node, followed by <code>DQT</code> (and 
+<code>DHT</code> for non-progressive writes) marker segments, followed by the 
+<code>SOF</code> and <code>SOS</code> marker segments.  For progressive writes
+using metadata to control progression, the <code>SOS</code> segments are used 
+in the order in which their corresponding nodes occur in the 
+<code>markerSequence</code> node.
+<p>
+
+The <code>reset</code>, <code>mergeTree</code> and <code>setFromTree</code> 
+operations have the following semantics for the JPEG plug-in metadata object:
+
+<p> <code>reset</code> - A call to <code>reset</code> will restore the 
+metadata object to the same state it had immediately after creation, whether 
+this came about from reading a stream or by obtaining a default object from 
+the <code>ImageWriter</code>.  This is true regardless of how many times the 
+metadata object has been modified since creation.
+
+<p> <code>mergeTree</code> - Native Format
+<br> The <code>mergeTree</code> operation accepts valid trees conforming to 
+the DTD below, and merges the nodes using the following ordering rules.  In 
+all cases, only data present in the new node is changed in a corresponding 
+existing node, if any.  This means that nodes cannot be removed using 
+<code>mergeTree</code>.  To remove nodes, use <code>setFromTree</code>.  The 
+tree must consist of <code>IIOMetadataNode</code>s.
+<ul>
+  <li> <code>app0JFIF</code>
+        <ul>
+          <li> If an <code>app0JFIF</code> node already exists, the contents

+        <ul>
+          <li> If there already exist <code>dqt</code> nodes in the sequence,

+          <li> If none of the existing <code>dqt</code> nodes contain a table
+               with the same id, then the table is added to the last existing

+  <li> <code>sos</code>
+        <ul>
+          <li> If there already exists a single <code>sos</code> node, then
+               the values are updated from the node.
+          <li> If there are more than one existing <code>sos</code> nodes,
+               then an <code>IIOInvalidTreeException</code> is thrown, as
+               <code>sos</code> nodes cannot be merged into a set of
+               progressive scans.
+          <li> If there are no <code>sos</code> nodes, a new one is created
+               and added to the end of the sequence.
+        </ul>
+</ul>
+
+<p> <code>mergeTree</code> - Standard Format
+<br>
+The <code>mergeTree</code> operation, when given a tree in the standard 
+format, will modify the native tree in the following ways:
+<ul>
+   <li> <code>Chroma</code> - The <code>ColorSpaceType</code> subnode of a
+        <code>Chroma</code> node may change the target colorspace of the
+        compressed image.  The selection of a new colorspace can cause a number
+        of changes, in keeping with the algorithms described above: 
+        <code>app0JFIF</code> and <code>app14Adobe</code> nodes may be added
+        or removed, subsampling may be added or removed, component ids may
+        be changed, and <code>sof</code> and <code>sos</code> nodes will be
+        updated accordingly.  If necessary, additional quantization and
+        huffman tables are added.  In the case of quantization tables, the
+        default will be scaled to match the quality level of any existing
+        tables.  No tables are added to metadata that does not already contain
+        tables.  If the existing metadata specifies progressive encoding, then
+        the number of channels must not change.  Any <code>Transparency</code>
+        node is also taken into account, as an explicit value of
+        <code>none</code> for the <code>Alpha</code> subnode can cause the
+        removal of an alpha channel, and anything other than <code>none</code>
+        can cause the addition of an alpha channel.
+   <li> <code>Dimension</code> - A <code>PixelAspectRatio</code> specification
+        can cause the contents of an <code>app0JFIF</code> node to change, if
+        there is one present, or the addition of an <code>app0JFIF</code> node
+        containing appropriate values, if there can be one.  An appropriate
+        pair of integers is computed from the floating-point ratio for
+        inclusion in the node.
+   <li> <code>Text</code> - Each uncompressed text item is converted to a
+        <code>com</code> node and inserted according to the rules above for
+        merging <code>com</code> nodes.
+</ul>
+
+<p> <code>setFromTree</code> - Native Format
+<br>
+The <code>setFromTree</code> operation, when given a tree in the native 
+format described below, will simply replace the existing tree in its entirety 
+with the new one.  The tree must consist of <code>IIOMetadataNode</code>s.
+
+<p> <code>setFromTree</code> - Standard Format
+<br>
+The <code>setFromTree</code> operation, when given a tree in the standard 
+format, performs a <code>reset</code> followed by a merge of the new tree.
