<h1>Pillow</h1>
<p>Pillow is the "friendly" PIL fork, created by Alex Clark. PIL is the Python Imaging Library, created by Fredrik Lundh.</p>
<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>The fork author's goal is to foster active development of PIL through:</p>
<ul>
<li>Publicized development activity</li>
<li>Solicitation for community contributions</li>
<li>Regular releases to the Python Packaging Index</li>
</ul><h2>Why a fork?</h2>
<p>PIL is not setuptools compatible. Please see <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/image-sig/2010-August/006480.html">http://mail.python.org/pipermail/image-sig/2010-August/006480.html</a> for a more detailed explanation. Also, PIL's current bi-yearly (or greater) release schedule is too slow to address the large number of issues regularly reported.</p>
<h2>What about image code bugs?</h2>
<p>Please report any non-packaging related issues here first:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="https://bitbucket.org/effbot/pil-2009-raclette/issues">https://bitbucket.org/effbot/pil-2009-raclette/issues</a> </li>
</ul><p>Then open a ticket here:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/python-imaging/Pillow/issues">https://github.com/python-imaging/Pillow/issues</a></li>
</ul><p>and provide a link to the first ticket so we can track the issue(s) upstream.</p>
<h2>Documentation</h2>
<p>The API documentation included with PIL has been converted (from HTML) to
reStructured text (via pandoc) and is now <code>hosted by readthedocs.org &lt;http://pillow.readthedocs.org&gt;</code>_.</p>
<p>What follows is the PIL 1.1.7 README contents.</p>
<h1>Python Imaging Library</h1>
<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>The Python Imaging Library (PIL) adds image processing capabilities
to your Python environment. This library provides extensive file
format support, an efficient internal representation, and powerful
image processing capabilities.</p>
<p>This source kit has been built and tested with Python 2.0 and newer,
on Windows, Mac OS X, and major Unix platforms. Large parts of the
library also work on 1.5.2 and 1.6.</p>
<p>The main distribution site for this software is:</p>
<pre><code> http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/
</code></pre>
<p>That site also contains information about free and commercial support
options, PIL add-ons, answers to frequently asked questions, and more.</p>
<p>Development versions (alphas, betas) are available here:</p>
<pre><code> http://effbot.org/downloads/
</code></pre>
<p>The PIL handbook is not included in this distribution; to get the
latest version, check:</p>
<pre><code> http://www.pythonware.com/library/
</code></pre>
<p>For installation and licensing details, see below.</p>
<hr><h2>Support Options</h2>
<p>Commercial Support</p>
<pre><code>
Secret Labs (PythonWare) offers support contracts for companies using
the Python Imaging Library in commercial applications, and in mission-
critical environments. The support contract includes technical support,
bug fixes, extensions to the PIL library, sample applications, and more.
For the full story, check:

<p>For support and general questions on the Python Imaging Library, send
e-mail to the Image SIG mailing list:</p>
<pre><code> image-sig@python.org
</code></pre>
<p>You can join the Image SIG by sending a mail to:</p>
<pre><code> image-sig-request@python.org
</code></pre>
<p>Put "subscribe" in the message body to automatically subscribe to the
list, or "help" to get additional information. Alternatively, you can
send your questions to the Python mailing list, <a href="mailto:python-list@python.org">python-list@python.org</a>,
or post them to the newsgroup comp.lang.python. DO NOT SEND SUPPORT
QUESTIONS TO PYTHONWARE ADDRESSES.</p>
