[PDFBox] No ImageWriter found for 'tif' format in WebSphere

Problem
As I try to convert PDF to TIF via PDFBox in WebSphere 8, I got the error message during the conversion process:

[Line:198][org.apache.pdfbox.tools.imageio.ImageIOUtil.writeImage]No ImageWriter found for 'tif' format
[Line:206][org.apache.pdfbox.tools.imageio.ImageIOUtil.writeImage]Supported formats: BMP bmp jpg JPG wbmp jpeg png PNG JPEG WBMP GIF gif


Lacking of jai-imageio-core jar file in your classpath must get this error message.
But I have add jai-imageio-core dependency in pom.xml.
Snippet of pom.xml looks like:

<!-- for generating tif file -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId>
    <artifactId>pdfbox-tools</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.0</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.jai-imageio</groupId>
    <artifactId>jai-imageio-core</artifactId>
    <version>1.3.1</version>
</dependency>

Therefore, I try to print log to figure out the weird problem:

 try {
     Enumeration<URL> urls = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()
             .getResources("META-INF/services/javax.imageio.spi.ImageWriterSpi");
     while (urls.hasMoreElements()) {
         log.info("[convertToTiff] url = " + urls.nextElement().toString());
     }
 
 } catch (IOException e1) {
     e1.printStackTrace();
     throw new RuntimeException(e1);
 }

 The jar file exists in my ear file ! What happened?

 [convertToTiff] url = wsjar:file:/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv03/installedApps/FDCSRA205Node03Cell/yuantalife-ecp-manage.ear/yuantalife-ecp-manage-war-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.war/WEB-INF/lib/jai-imageio-core-1.3.1.jar!/META-INF/services/javax.imageio.spi.ImageWriterSpi

How-to
The root cause is not so clear. It may results from WebSphere's classloading problem.
Hence, I find an API to scans for plug-ins on the application class path, loads their service provider classes, and registers a service provider instance for each one found with the IIORegistry. This strange problem had been resolved as I add ImageIO.scanForPlugins();
