  <meta name="Description" content="ImageMagick (TM) is a free software suite to create, edit and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a large variety of formats. Images can be cropped, colors can be changed, various effects can be applied, images can be rotated and combined, and text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves can be added to images and stretched and rotated.  ImageMagick is free software: it is delivered with full source code and can be freely used, copied, modified and distributed. Its license is compatible with the GPL. It runs on all major operating systems.  Most of the functionality of ImageMagick can be used interactively from the command line; more often, however, the features are used from programs written in the programming languages Perl, C, C++, Python, PHP, Ruby or Java, for which ready-made ImageMagick interfaces (PerlMagick, Magick++, PythonMagick, MagickWand for PHP, RubyMagick, and JMagick) are available. This makes it possible to modify or create images automatically and dynamically.  ImageMagick supports many image formats (over 90 major formats) including popular formats like TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, and GIF."/>

  <h2><a name="intro"></a>Introducing Image Formats</h2>
</div>
<p>ImageMagick uses an ASCII string known as <em>magick</em> (e.g. <kbd>GIF</kbd>) to identify file formats, algorithms acting as formats, built-in patterns, and embedded profile types.</p>

<p>Support for some of the formats are delegated to libraries or external programs. The Installation Guide describes where to find these distributions and any special configuration options required.</p>

<p>To get a complete listing of which image formats are supported on your system, type</p>

<pre class="text">
   identify -list format
</pre>

<p>On some platforms, ImageMagick automatically processes these extensions: .gz for Zip compression, .Z for Unix compression, .bz2 for block compression, and .pgp for PGP encryption. For example, a PNM image called image.pnm.gz is automatically uncompressed.</p>

<div style="margin: auto;">
  <h2><a name="supported"></a>Supported Image Formats</h2>
</div>

<p>ImageMagick supports reading over 90 major file formats (not
including sub-formats). The following table provides a summary of
the supported image formats.</p>
