-ImageMagick® is a software suite to create, edit, compose, or convert bitmap images. It can read and write images in a variety of formats (over 100) including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF. Use ImageMagick to resize, flip, mirror, rotate, distort, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves.
+Introduction to ImageMagick
+
+ ImageMagick® is a software suite to create, edit, compose, or convert
+ bitmap images. It can read and write images in a variety of formats (over
+ 200) including PNG, JPEG, JPEG-2000, GIF, TIFF, DPX, EXR, WebP, Postscript,
+ PDF, and SVG. Use ImageMagick to resize, flip, mirror, rotate, distort,
+ shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special
+ effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves.
+
+ The functionality of ImageMagick is typically utilized from the command
+ line or you can use the features from programs written in your favorite
+ language. Choose from these interfaces: G2F (Ada), MagickCore (C),
+ MagickWand (C), ChMagick (Ch), ImageMagickObject (COM+), Magick++ (C++),
+ JMagick (Java), L-Magick (Lisp), Lua, NMagick (Neko/haXe), Magick.NET
+ (.NET), PascalMagick (Pascal), PerlMagick (Perl), MagickWand for PHP
+ (PHP), IMagick (PHP), PythonMagick (Python), RMagick (Ruby), or TclMagick
+ (Tcl/TK). With a language interface, use ImageMagick to modify or create
+ images dynamically and automagically.
+
+ ImageMagick utilizes multiple computational threads to increase performance
+ and can read, process, or write mega-, giga-, or tera-pixel image sizes.
+
+ ImageMagick is free software delivered as a ready-to-run binary distribution
+ or as source code that you may use, copy, modify, and distribute in both open
+ and proprietary applications. It is distributed under the Apache 2.0 license.
+
+ The ImageMagick development process ensures a stable API and ABI. Before
+ each ImageMagick release, we perform a comprehensive security assessment
+ that includes memory error and thread data race detection to prevent
+ security vulnerabilities.
+
+ ImageMagick is available from
+ https://www.imagemagick.org/script/download.php. It runs on Linux, Windows,
+ Mac Os X, iOS, Android OS, and others.
+
+ The authoritative ImageMagick web site is
+ https://www.imagemagick.org. The authoritative source code repository is
+ http://git.imagemagick.org/repos/ImageMagick/.

Features and Capabilities
-
-Here are just a few examples of what ImageMagick can do:
-
- Format conversion: convert an image from one format to another (e.g. PNG to JPEG).
- Transform: resize, rotate, crop, flip or trim an image.
- Transparency: render portions of an image invisible.
- Draw: add shapes or text to an image.
- Decorate: add a border or frame to an image.
- Special effects: blur, sharpen, threshold, or tint an image.
- Animation: create a GIF animation sequence from a group of images.
- Text & comments: insert descriptive or artistic text in an image.
- Image identification: describe the format and attributes of an image.
- Composite: overlap one image over another.
- Montage: juxtapose image thumbnails on an image canvas.
- Generalized pixel distortion: correct for, or induce image distortions including perspective.
- Morphology of shapes: extract features, describe shapes and recognize patterns in images.
- Motion picture support: read and write the common image formats used in digital film work.
- Image calculator: apply a mathematical expression to an image or image channels.
- Discrete Fourier transform: implements the forward and inverse DFT.
- High dynamic-range images: accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from the brightest direct sunlight to the deepest darkest shadows.
- Encipher or decipher an image: convert ordinary images into unintelligible gibberish and back again.
- Virtual pixel support: convenient access to pixels outside the image region.
- Large image support: read, process, or write mega-, giga-, or tera-pixel image sizes.
- Threads of execution support: ImageMagick is thread safe and most internal algorithms execute in parallel to take advantage of speed-ups offered by multicore processor chips.
- Heterogeneous distributed processing: certain algorithms are OpenCL-enabled to take advantage of speed-ups offered by executing in concert across heterogeneous platforms consisting of CPUs, GPUs, and other processors.
- ImageMagick on the iPhone: convert, edit, or compose images on your iOS comuting device such as the iPhone or iPad.
-
-Examples of ImageMagick Usage shows how to use ImageMagick from the command-line to accomplish any of these tasks and much more. Also, see Fred's ImageMagick Scripts: a plethora of command-line scripts that perform geometric transforms, blurs, sharpens, edging, noise removal, and color manipulations.
+
+ Here are just a few examples of what ImageMagick can do:
+
+ * Format conversion: convert an image from one format to another (e.g.
+ PNG to JPEG).
+ * Transform: resize, rotate, deskew, crop, flip or trim an image.
+ * Transparency: render portions of an image invisible.
+ * Draw: add shapes or text to an image.
+ * Decorate: add a border or frame to an image.
+ * Special effects: blur, sharpen, threshold, or tint an image.
+ * Animation: create a GIF animation sequence from a group of images.
+ * Text & comments: insert descriptive or artistic text in an image.
+ * Image gradients: create a gradual blend of one color whose shape is
+ horizontal, vertical, circular, or ellipical.
+ * Image identification: describe the format and attributes of an image.
+ * Composite: overlap one image over another.
+ * Montage: juxtapose image thumbnails on an image canvas.
+ * Generalized pixel distortion: correct for, or induce image distortions

+ patterns in images.
+ * Motion picture support: read and write the common image formats used in
+ digital film work.

+ channels.
+ * Connected component labeling: uniquely label connected regions in an
+ image.
+ * Discrete Fourier transform: implements the forward and inverse DFT.
+ * Perceptual hash: maps visually identical images to the same or similar
+ hash-- useful in image retrieval, authentication, indexing, or copy
+ detection as well as digital watermarking.
+ * Complex text layout: bidirectional text support and shaping.
+ * Color management: accurate color management with color profiles or in
+ lieu of-- built-in gamma compression or expansion as demanded by the
+ colorspace.
+ * High dynamic-range images: accurately represent the wide range of
+ intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from the brightest direct
+ sunlight to the deepest darkest shadows.
+ * Encipher or decipher an image: convert ordinary images into
+ unintelligible gibberish and back again.
+ * Virtual pixel support: convenient access to pixels outside the image
+ region.
+ * Large image support: read, process, or write mega-, giga-, or
+ tera-pixel image sizes.
+ * Threads of execution support: ImageMagick is thread safe and most
+ internal algorithms are OpenMP-enabled to take advantage of speed-ups
+ offered by multicore processor chips.
+ * Distributed pixel cache: offload intermediate pixel storage to one or
+ more remote servers.
+ * Heterogeneous distributed processing: certain algorithms are
+ OpenCL-enabled to take advantage of speed-ups offered by executing in
+ concert across heterogeneous platforms consisting of CPUs, GPUs, and
+ other processors.
+ * ImageMagick on the iPhone: convert, edit, or compose images on your
+ iPhone or iPad.
