  RenderContext | A RenderContext encapsulates the information needed to produce a specific rendering from a RenderableImage.
  RenderedImageFactory | The RenderedImageFactory interface (often abbreviated RIF) is intended to be implemented by classes that wish to act as factories to produce different renderings, for example by executing a series of BufferedImageOps on a set of sources, depending on a specific set of parameters, properties, and rendering hints.
