<h3>Magick++ News</h3>
<p>
ImageMagick Studio LLC announces the release of ImageMagick 6.2.1.

<p>
ImageMagick 6.2.1 is a robust collection of tools and libraries offered under
a usage license to read, write, and manipulate an image in many image formats
(over 89 major formats) including popular formats like TIFF, JPEG, PNG,
PDF, PhotoCD, and GIF. With ImageMagick you can create images dynamically,
making it suitable for Web applications. You can also resize, rotate, sharpen,
color reduce, or add special effects to an image or image sequence and save
your completed work in the same or differing image format. Image processing
operations are available from the command line, or from the C, C++, Perl,
Java, PHP, Python, Ruby, or Tcl programming languages.  A high-quality 2D
renderer is included, which provides a subset of SVG capabilities.
ImageMagick's focus is on performance, minimizing bugs, and providing stable
APIs and ABIs.

<p>
Here are just a few examples of what ImageMagick can do:

<font size=-2><UL>
  <LI> Convert an image from one format to another (e.g. TIFF to JPEG)
  <LI> Resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image
  <LI> Create a montage of image thumbnails
  <LI> Create a transparent image suitable for use on the Web
  <LI> Turn a group of images into a GIF animation sequence
  <LI> Create a composite image by combining several separate images
  <LI> Draw shapes or text on an image
  <LI> Decorate an image with a border or frame
  <LI> Describe the format and characteristics of an image

</UL></font>
