I have found the FreeImage library with the Python bindings quite workable. I work with multi-page TIF images and this seemed to be the best option. The FreeImage library seems to be actively maintained too (Last release in July 08 with updates to many of the image processing plug- ins). The python bindings took me a bit to understand as they try to emulate PIL, however they are implemented using ctypes, so you can change/manage yourself if needed. I found working directly with the functions exported from the .dll the best option and gave the best performance. Freeimage site: http://freeimage.sourceforge.net/ Python bindings: http://freeimagepy.sourceforge.net/ Hope that helps. Good luck. Working with images/graphics can make my brain hurt sometimes. g. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
