Some (most?) of Pillow's features require external libraries.
* **libjpeg** provides JPEG functionality.
* Pillow has been tested with libjpeg versions **6b**, **8**, and **9**
* **zlib** provides access to compressed PNGs
* **libtiff** provides group4 tiff functionality
* Pillow has been tested with libtiff versions **3.x** and **4.0**
* **libfreetype** provides type related services
* **littlecms** provides color management
* **libwebp** provides the Webp format.
* Pillow has been tested with version **0.1.3**, which does not read transparent webp files. Version **0.3.0** supports transparency.
If the prerequisites are installed in the standard library locations for your machine (e.g. /usr or /usr/local), no additional configuration should be required. If they are installed in a non-standard location, you may need to configure setuptools to use those locations (i.e. by editing setup.py and/or setup.cfg). Once you have installed the prerequisites, run::
$ pip install Pillow
