Deprecations and removals
=========================
This page lists Pillow features that are deprecated, or have been removed in
past major releases, and gives the alternatives to use instead.
Deprecated features
-------------------
Below are features which are considered deprecated. Where appropriate,
a :py:exc:`DeprecationWarning` is issued.
PSFile
~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.5.0
The :py:class:`~PIL.EpsImagePlugin.PSFile` class has been deprecated and will
be removed in Pillow 11 (2024-10-15). This class was only made as a helper to
be used internally, so there is no replacement. If you need this functionality
though, it is a very short class that can easily be recreated in your own code.
PyAccess and Image.USE_CFFI_ACCESS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 10.0.0
Since Pillow's C API is now faster than PyAccess on PyPy,
:py:mod:`~PIL.PyAccess` has been deprecated and will be removed in Pillow
11.0.0 (2024-10-15). Pillow's C API will now be used by default on PyPy instead.
``Image.USE_CFFI_ACCESS``, for switching from the C API to PyAccess, is
similarly deprecated.
ImageFile.raise_oserror
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 10.2.0
``ImageFile.raise_oserror()`` has been deprecated and will be removed in Pillow
12.0.0 (2025-10-15). The function is undocumented and is only useful for translating
error codes returned by a codec's ``decode()`` method, which ImageFile already does
automatically.
IptcImageFile helper functions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 10.2.0
The functions ``IptcImageFile.dump`` and ``IptcImageFile.i``, and the constant
``IptcImageFile.PAD`` have been deprecated and will be removed in Pillow
12.0.0 (2025-10-15). These are undocumented helper functions intended
for internal use, so there is no replacement. They can each be replaced
by a single line of code using builtin functions in Python.
ImageCms constants and versions() function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 10.3.0
A number of constants and a function in :py:mod:`.ImageCms` have been deprecated.
This includes a table of flags based on LittleCMS version 1 which has been
replaced with a new class :py:class:`.ImageCms.Flags` based on LittleCMS 2 flags.
============================================ ====================================================
Deprecated Use instead
============================================ ====================================================
``ImageCms.DESCRIPTION`` No replacement
``ImageCms.VERSION`` ``PIL.__version__``

``ImageCms.FLAGS["MATRIXOUTPUT"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.FORCE_CLUT`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["MATRIXONLY"]`` No replacement
``ImageCms.FLAGS["NOWHITEONWHITEFIXUP"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.NOWHITEONWHITEFIXUP`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["NOPRELINEARIZATION"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.CLUT_PRE_LINEARIZATION`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["GUESSDEVICECLASS"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.GUESSDEVICECLASS`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["NOTCACHE"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.NOCACHE`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["NOTPRECALC"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.NOOPTIMIZE`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["NULLTRANSFORM"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.NULLTRANSFORM`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["HIGHRESPRECALC"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.HIGHRESPRECALC`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["LOWRESPRECALC"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.LOWRESPRECALC`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["GAMUTCHECK"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.GAMUTCHECK`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["WHITEBLACKCOMPENSATION"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.BLACKPOINTCOMPENSATION`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["BLACKPOINTCOMPENSATION"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.BLACKPOINTCOMPENSATION`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["SOFTPROOFING"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.SOFTPROOFING`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["PRESERVEBLACK"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.NONEGATIVES`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["NODEFAULTRESOURCEDEF"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.NODEFAULTRESOURCEDEF`
``ImageCms.FLAGS["GRIDPOINTS"]`` :py:attr:`.ImageCms.Flags.GRIDPOINTS()`
``ImageCms.versions()`` :py:func:`PIL.features.version_module` with
``feature="littlecms2"``, :py:data:`sys.version` or
:py:data:`sys.version_info`, and ``PIL.__version__``
============================================ ====================================================
ImageMath eval()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. deprecated:: 10.3.0
``ImageMath.eval()`` has been deprecated. Use :py:meth:`~PIL.ImageMath.lambda_eval` or
:py:meth:`~PIL.ImageMath.unsafe_eval` instead.
Support for LibTIFF earlier than 4
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. deprecated:: 10.4.0
Support for LibTIFF earlier than version 4 has been deprecated.
Upgrade to a newer version of LibTIFF instead.
Removed features
----------------
Deprecated features are only removed in major releases after an appropriate
period of deprecation has passed.
Tk/Tcl 8.4
~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 8.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
Support for Tk/Tcl 8.4 was removed in Pillow 10.0.0 (2023-07-01).
Categories
~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 8.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
``im.category`` was removed along with the related ``Image.NORMAL``,
``Image.SEQUENCE`` and ``Image.CONTAINER`` attributes.
To determine if an image has multiple frames or not,
``getattr(im, "is_animated", False)`` can be used instead.
JpegImagePlugin.convert_dict_qtables
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 8.3.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
Since deprecation in Pillow 8.3.0, the ``convert_dict_qtables`` method no longer
performed any operations on the data given to it, and has been removed.
ImagePalette size parameter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 8.4.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
Before Pillow 8.3.0, ``ImagePalette`` required palette data of particular lengths by
default, and the ``size`` parameter could be used to override that. Pillow 8.3.0
removed the default required length, also removing the need for the ``size`` parameter.
ImageShow.Viewer.show_file file argument
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.1.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
The ``file`` argument in :py:meth:`~PIL.ImageShow.Viewer.show_file()` has been
removed and replaced by ``path``.
In effect, ``viewer.show_file("test.jpg")`` will continue to work unchanged.
Constants
~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.1.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
A number of constants have been removed.
Instead, :py:class:`enum.IntEnum` classes have been added.
.. note::
Additional ``Image`` constants were deprecated in Pillow 9.1.0, but that
was reversed in Pillow 9.4.0 and those constants will now remain available.
See :ref:`restored-image-constants`

===================================================== ============================================================
FitsStubImagePlugin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.1.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
The stub image plugin ``FitsStubImagePlugin`` has been removed.
FITS images can be read without a handler through :mod:`~PIL.FitsImagePlugin` instead.
Font size and offset methods
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
Several functions for computing the size and offset of rendered text have been removed:
=============================================================== =============================================================================================================
Removed Use instead
=============================================================== =============================================================================================================
``FreeTypeFont.getsize()`` and ``FreeTypeFont.getoffset()`` :py:meth:`.FreeTypeFont.getbbox` and :py:meth:`.FreeTypeFont.getlength`
``FreeTypeFont.getsize_multiline()`` :py:meth:`.ImageDraw.multiline_textbbox`
``ImageFont.getsize()`` :py:meth:`.ImageFont.getbbox` and :py:meth:`.ImageFont.getlength`
``TransposedFont.getsize()`` :py:meth:`.TransposedFont.getbbox` and :py:meth:`.TransposedFont.getlength`
``ImageDraw.textsize()`` and ``ImageDraw.multiline_textsize()`` :py:meth:`.ImageDraw.textbbox`, :py:meth:`.ImageDraw.textlength` and :py:meth:`.ImageDraw.multiline_textbbox`
``ImageDraw2.Draw.textsize()`` :py:meth:`.ImageDraw2.Draw.textbbox` and :py:meth:`.ImageDraw2.Draw.textlength`
=============================================================== =============================================================================================================
Previous code::
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
font = ImageFont.truetype("Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf")
width, height = font.getsize("Hello world")
left, top = font.getoffset("Hello world")
im = Image.new("RGB", (100, 100))
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im)
width, height = draw.textsize("Hello world", font)
width, height = font.getsize_multiline("Hello\nworld")
width, height = draw.multiline_textsize("Hello\nworld", font)
Use instead::
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
font = ImageFont.truetype("Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf")
left, top, right, bottom = font.getbbox("Hello world")
width, height = right - left, bottom - top
im = Image.new("RGB", (100, 100))
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im)
width = draw.textlength("Hello world", font)
left, top, right, bottom = draw.multiline_textbbox((0, 0), "Hello\nworld", font)
width, height = right - left, bottom - top
Previously, the ``size`` methods returned a ``height`` that included the vertical
offset of the text, while the new ``bbox`` methods distinguish this as a ``top``
offset.
.. image:: ./example/size_vs_bbox.png
:alt: In bbox methods, top measures the vertical distance above the text, while bottom measures that plus the vertical distance of the text itself. In size methods, height also measures the vertical distance above the text plus the vertical distance of the text itself.
:align: center
If you are using these methods for aligning text, consider using :ref:`text-anchors` instead
which avoid issues that can occur with non-English text or unusual fonts.
For example, instead of the following code::
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
font = ImageFont.truetype("Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf")
im = Image.new("RGB", (100, 100))
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im)
width, height = draw.textsize("Hello world", font)
x, y = (100 - width) / 2, (100 - height) / 2
draw.text((x, y), "Hello world", font=font)
Use instead::
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
font = ImageFont.truetype("Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf")
im = Image.new("RGB", (100, 100))
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im)
draw.text((100 / 2, 100 / 2), "Hello world", font=font, anchor="mm")
FreeTypeFont.getmask2 fill parameter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
The undocumented ``fill`` parameter of :py:meth:`.FreeTypeFont.getmask2` has been
removed.
PhotoImage.paste box parameter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
The ``box`` parameter was unused and has been removed.
PyQt5 and PySide2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
`Qt 5 reached end-of-life <https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-5.15-released>`_ on 2020-12-08 for
open-source users (and will reach EOL on 2023-12-08 for commercial licence holders).
Support for PyQt5 and PySide2 has been removed from ``ImageQt``. Upgrade to
`PyQt6 <https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt6/>`_ or
`PySide6 <https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython-6/>`_ instead.
Image.coerce_e
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 9.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 10.0.0
This undocumented method has been removed.
PILLOW_VERSION constant
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 5.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 9.0.0
Use ``__version__`` instead.
It was initially removed in Pillow 7.0.0, but temporarily brought back in 7.1.0
to give projects more time to upgrade.
Image.show command parameter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 7.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 9.0.0
The ``command`` parameter has been removed. Use a subclass of
:py:class:`.ImageShow.Viewer` instead.
Image._showxv
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 7.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 9.0.0
Use :py:meth:`.Image.Image.show` instead. If custom behaviour is required, use
:py:func:`.ImageShow.register` to add a custom :py:class:`.ImageShow.Viewer` class.
ImageFile.raise_ioerror
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 7.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 9.0.0
:py:exc:`IOError` was merged into :py:exc:`OSError` in Python 3.3.
So, ``ImageFile.raise_ioerror`` has been removed.
Use ``ImageFile.raise_oserror`` instead.
FreeType 2.7
~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 8.1.0
.. versionremoved:: 9.0.0
Support for FreeType 2.7 has been removed.
We recommend upgrading to at least `FreeType`_ 2.10.4, which fixed a severe
vulnerability introduced in FreeType 2.6 (:cve:`2020-15999`).
.. _FreeType: https://freetype.org/
im.offset
~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 1.1.2
.. versionremoved:: 8.0.0

It was documented as deprecated in PIL 1.1.2,
raised a :py:exc:`DeprecationWarning` since 1.1.5,
an :py:exc:`Exception` since Pillow 3.0.0
and :py:exc:`NotImplementedError` since 3.3.0.
Image.fromstring, im.fromstring and im.tostring

They issued a :py:exc:`DeprecationWarning` since 2.0.0,
an :py:exc:`Exception` since 3.0.0
and :py:exc:`NotImplementedError` since 3.3.0.
ImageCms.CmsProfile attributes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 3.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 8.0.0
Some attributes in :py:class:`PIL.ImageCms.core.CmsProfile` have been removed.
From 6.0.0, they issued a :py:exc:`DeprecationWarning`:

support Python 2.
Image.__del__
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 6.1.0
.. versionremoved:: 7.0.0
Implicitly closing the image's underlying file in ``Image.__del__`` has been removed.
Use a context manager or call ``Image.close()`` instead to close the file in a
deterministic way.

im = Image.open("hopper.png")
im.save("out.jpg")
Use instead::
with Image.open("hopper.png") as im:
im.save("out.jpg")
PIL.*ImagePlugin.__version__ attributes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 6.0.0
.. versionremoved:: 7.0.0

2018-08-31 and PySide since 2015-10-14.
Support for PyQt4 and PySide has been removed from ``ImageQt``. Please upgrade to PyQt5
or PySide2.
Setting the size of TIFF images
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 5.3.0
.. versionremoved:: 7.0.0
Setting the size of a TIFF image directly (eg. ``im.size = (256, 256)``) throws
an error. Use ``Image.resize`` instead.
VERSION constant
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 5.2.0
.. versionremoved:: 6.0.0
``VERSION`` (the old PIL version, always 1.1.7) has been removed. Use
``__version__`` instead.

the upstream :pypi:`olefile` Python package, and replaced with an :py:exc:`ImportError` in 5.0.0
(2018-01). The deprecated file has now been removed from Pillow. If needed, install from
PyPI (eg. ``python3 -m pip install olefile``).
import _imaging
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. versionremoved:: 2.1.0
