Description: =======================================================
        smc.freeimage - Semantics' FreeImage wrapper for Python
        =======================================================
        
        smc.freeimage is a Python interface to the FreeImage and LCMS2 libraries.
        
        
        Features of FreeImage
        =====================
        
        FreeImage wraps mature and widely-used libraries like LibJPEG, LibOpenJPEG,
        LibPNG, LibRaw, LibTIFF4, OpenEXR and zlib in a consistent and powerful set
        of APIs.

         * Reading of 35 file formats and writing of more than 19 file formats as of
           FreeImage 3.15.3, including JPEG 2000, multiple subformats of TIFF 
           with G3/G4 fax compression and JPEG subsampling.
           
         * pixel depths from 1-32 bpp standard images up to formats like
           RGBAF and 2x64complex.
           
         * multi page images
         
         * Metadata (e.g. EXIF, IPTC/NAA, GeoTIFF, XMP) and ICC
         
         * Color adjustment, conversion and channel processing
         
         * Image resizing and rotation
         
         * High Dynamic Range (HDR) image processing and tone mapping
         
         * RAW camera files
         
        Contrary to PIL it doesn't contain advanced image filters or drawing 
        functions. FreeImage focuses on file formats
        
        
        Features of LCMS2
        =================
        
        LCMS2 is a color management engine that implements V2 and V4 ICC profiles up
        to V4.3. It supports transformation, proofing and introspection of profiles
        for a large variety of color formats and targets.

        Features of smc.freeimage
        =========================
        
        smc.freeimage is developed as part of the closed source Visual Library
        framework.
        
         * mostly written with Cython with some lines of handwritten C Code and some
           Python helpers.
           
         * fast. It avoids copying large amounts of data and releases the GIL whenever
           possible.
           
         * 64bit safe, tested on i386/X86 and AMD64/X86_64 systems
         
         * thread safe
        
         * Wraps a large subset of FreeImage features
