Summary

The library supports many operations that are useful on

* Document images

* Natural images

Fundamental image processing and image analysis operations

* Rasterop (aka bitblt)

* Affine transforms (scaling, translation, rotation, shear)

on images of arbitrary pixel depth

* Projective and bi-linear transforms

* Binary and gray scale morphology, rank order filters, and

convolution

* Seed-fill and connected components

* Image transformations with changes in pixel depth, both at

the same scale and with scale change

* Pixelwise masking, blending, enhancement, arithmetic ops,

etc.
