116 * <h3><a name="gif_plugin_notes">Standard plug-in for GIF image format</a></h3>
117 * ImageIO provides {@code ImageReader} and {@code ImageWriter}plug-ins for the
118 * <a href="http://www.w3.org/Graphics/GIF/spec-gif89a.txt"> Graphics
119 * Interchange Format (GIF)</a> image format. These are the "standard" GIF
120 * plug-ins, meaning those that are included in the JRE, as distinct from those
121 * included in standard extensions, or 3rd party plug-ins. The following notes
122 * and metadata specification apply to the standard plug-ins.
123 *
124 * <h3>Writing GIF images</h3>
125 * The GIF image writer plug-in guarantees lossless writing for images which
126 * meet the following requirements:
127 * <ul>
128 * <li>the number of bands is 1;</li>
129 * <li>the number of bits per sample is not greater than 8;</li>
130 * <li>the size of a color component is not greater than 8;</li>
131 * </ul>
132 * <p>
133 * By default the GIF writer plug-in creates version "89a" images. This can be
134 * changed to "87a" by explicitly setting the version in the stream metadata
135 * (see
136 * <a href="metadata/doc-files/gif_metadata.html#gif_stream_metadata_format">
