GeoTools !

Yes I know this :) but I would like to get the perfect application ;)

To be clear, I sent this email in the case this is a bug and could be 
corrected.

Here is the content of prj file:

PROJCS["NTF (Paris) / Lambert zone II", GEOGCS["NTF (Paris)", DATUM["Nouvelle 
Triangulation Francaise (Paris)", SPHEROID["Clarke 1880 (IGN)", 6378249.2, 
293.4660212936269, AUTHORITY["EPSG","7011"]], AUTHORITY["EPSG","6807"]], 
PRIMEM["Paris", 2.5969213, AUTHORITY["EPSG","8903"]], UNIT["grade", 
0.015707963267948967], AXIS["Geodetic longitude", EAST], AXIS["Geodetic 
latitude", NORTH], AUTHORITY["EPSG","4807"]], PROJECTION["Lambert Conic 
Conformal (1SP)", AUTHORITY["EPSG","9801"]], PARAMETER["central_meridian", 
0.0], PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin", 52.0], PARAMETER["scale_factor", 
0.99987742], PARAMETER["false_easting", 600000.0], PARAMETER["false_northing", 
2200000.0], UNIT["m", 1.0], AXIS["Easting", EAST], AXIS["Northing", NORTH], 
AUTHORITY["EPSG","27572"]]
