5. sips and the Twelve Monkeys PICT plugin appear to be the only
long term
viable methods of reading PICT data. You can use QTJ to do it with
32bit
JREs today but the future of that process doesn't look too safe.
I probably still have JNIDirect that'll do it. I haven't tracked it
down but as I recall what it used to do was use QuickDraw to render
the PICT to a offscreen GWorld. Then access the pixmap directly and
create a memory image sourced Image. It worked back to Classical Mac,
except it was JDirect then. Not exactly state of the art stuff, but
as far as I know the approach would still work. I seem to recall
other java to work with PICT's that you might turn up in the
archives. If you have something actively supporting it now, even if
it''s named for a rather forgettable science fiction movie, you are
probably better off in the long run using it.
