Hello -

I have a requirement where I need to decode the encoded images which present on the each XML transaction. Then each decoded images should be saved in tif format. Could you tell me how this can be achieved?

Thanks

Let's begin by asking what "decode" means in this context - and whether the image is embedded in the XML document or referred to from it.

Do you have the software required to decode these images installed on your DataStage server machine(s)?

Binary of image is included in the xml flow?

Not quite sure why anyone would assume a binary image, I'd imagine it's simply uuencoded or perhaps via MIME or yEnc. Plenty of command line options for the decoding part in that case.
