Description : Apache Commons Imaging - Pure-Java Image Library
Apache Commons Imaging is a library that reads and writes a variety of
image formats, including fast parsing of image information (size, color
space, ICC profile, etc.) and metadata.
This library is pure Java. Compared to typical image I/O libraries in
native code, it is more portable, and should be more reliable and more
secure against corrupt/malicious images, yet still performs reasonably
well. It is easier to use than ImageIO/JAI/java.awt.Toolkit (Sun/Java's
image support), supports more formats (and supports them more
correctly). It also provides easy access to metadata.
Dear maintainers,
this library is needed for a complete build of libitext5-java that
also includes itext-extra (cf. https://bugs.debian.org/983715).
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Thomas Uhle
