IIOParam	A superclass of all classes describing how streams should be decoded or encoded.
ImageIO	A class containing static convenience methods for locating ImageReaders and ImageWriters, and performing simple encoding and decoding.
ImageReader	An abstract superclass for parsing and decoding of images.
ImageReadParam	A class describing how a stream is to be decoded.
ImageTypeSpecifier	A class that allows the format of an image (in particular, its SampleModel and ColorModel) to be specified in a convenient manner.
ImageWriteParam	A class describing how a stream is to be encoded.

Package javax.imageio Description

The main package of the Java Image I/O API.

Many common image I/O operations may be performed using the static methods of the ImageIO class.

This package contains the basic classes and interfaces for describing the contents of image files, including metadata and thumbnails (IIOImage); for controlling the image reading process (ImageReader, ImageReadParam, and ImageTypeSpecifier) and image writing process (ImageWriter and ImageWriteParam); for performing transcoding between formats (ImageTranscoder), and for reporting errors (IIOException).
