    Default implementation for IFormatReader.openThumbBytes(int). At the moment, it uses BufferedImage objects to resize thumbnails, so it is not safe for use in headless contexts.

```
    Convenience method for converting the specified input file to the specified output file. The ImageReader and ImageWriter classes are used for input and output, respectively. To use other IFormatReader or IFormatWriter implementation,
    
    Parameters:
    
    input - the full path name of the existing input file
    
    output - the full path name of the output file to be created
    
    Throws:
    
    FormatException - if there is a general problem reading from or writing to one of the files.
    
    IOException - if there is an I/O-related error.

                    throws FormatException,
                           IOException
```
    Convenience method for writing all of the images and metadata obtained from the specified IFormatReader into the specified IFormatWriter. It is required that setId(String) be called on the IFormatReader object before it is passed to convert(...). setMetadataStore(...) should also have been called with an appropriate instance of IMetadata. The setId(String) method must not be called on the IFormatWriter object; this is taken care of internally. Additionally, the setMetadataRetrieve(...) method in IFormatWriter should not be called.
    
    Parameters:
    
    input - the pre-initialized IFormatReader used for reading data.
    
    output - the uninitialized IFormatWriter used for writing data.
    
    outputFile - the full path name of the output file to be created.
    
    Throws:
    
    FormatException - if there is a general problem reading from or writing to one of the files.
    
    IOException - if there is an I/O-related error.

    Returns:
    
    an array containing the min and max as elements 0 and 1, respectively.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if the pixel type is floating point or invalid.
