Thumbnails created with ImageScaleToFit/Cfimage vs JAI creation

Here is how i did it.

<!--- arguments.imageFileName is the full file path/name for the image file --->

<!--- arguments.netImageFileName is the full file path/name for the new thumbnail image file--->

<!--- Application.ThumbnailSize is the max height or width (pixels) for a thumbnail --->

<cfscript>
    // Read the image that we are thumbnailing
    myImage = ImageRead("#arguments.imageFileName#");
    // Resize the image
    if (myImage.height > myImage.width) {
     ImageScaleToFit(myImage,"",#Application.ThumbnailSize#,"highestPerformance");
    }
    else {
     ImageScaleToFit(myImage,#Application.ThumbnailSize#,"","highestPerformance");
    }
    // The next code will remove any EXIF headers from JPG files
    newImage  = ImageNew("",myImage.width, myImage.height,"rgb");
    clipboard = ImageCopy(myImage,0,0,myImage.width,myImage.height);
    ImagePaste(newImage,clipboard,0,0);
    // Write the new thumbnail image
    ImageWrite(newImage,"#arguments.newImageFileName#");
  </cfscript>

Figured it out.  The extra bytes come from the EXIF data. I googled and found a solution to remove it.

Some more info...When you run your cursor over the java create thumbnail it displays data for Dimensions, Type, and Size.  The coldfusion created file shows Dimensions, Date Picture Taken, Camera Model, Type and Size.  So, it would seem like the coldfusion created thumbnail contains more information than the one we created with JAI.  If this is indeed the reason that the image is so much larger, anybody have any idea of how to get rid of that info?
