I don't think the AWT JEPG decoder handles comments. If you look at the JPEG Decoder source code in the JDK , there seems to be no mention of setting properties at all.

You might have better luck using javax.imageio.ImageIO:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/imageio/metadata/doc- files/jpeg_metadata.html

IMHO, the ImageIO package is over-engineered yet incomplete, not to mention a fairly dense API to learn.

Much better is:

Of the top of my head, I don't recall whether it handles the JPEG comment field specifically, however.
