Description: Python Imaging Library
The Python Imaging Library (PIL) adds an image object to your Python
interpreter. You can load images from a variety of file formats, and
apply a rich set of image operations to them.
.
Image Objects:
o Bilevel, greyscale, palette, true colour (RGB), true colour with
transparency (RGBA).
o colour separation (CMYK).
o Copy, cut, paste operations.
o Flip, transpose, resize, rotate, and arbitrary affine transforms.
o Transparency operations.
o Channel and point operations.
o Colour transforms, including matrix operations.
o Image enhancement, including convolution filters.
.
File Formats:
o Full (Open/Load/Save): BMP, EPS (with ghostscript), GIF, IM, JPEG,
MSP, PDF, PNG, PPM, TIFF, XBM.
o Read only (Open/Load): ARG, CUR, DCX, FLI, FPX, GBR, GD, ICO, IMT, IPTC,
MCIDAS, MPEG, PhotoCD, PCX, PIXAR, PSD, TGA, SGI, SUN, TGA, WMF, XPM.
o Save only: PDF, EPS (without ghostscript).
.
This is the Python 2.3 version of the package.
