.. _IMT-PIL:
IMT-PIL IM Tools
================
Extensions: None
*From the Pillow docs:*
PIL reads Image Tools images containing ``L`` data.
Parameters for reading
----------------------
pilmode : str
From the Pillow documentation:
* 'L' (8-bit pixels, grayscale)
* 'P' (8-bit pixels, mapped to any other mode using a color palette)
* 'RGB' (3x8-bit pixels, true color)
* 'RGBA' (4x8-bit pixels, true color with transparency mask)
* 'CMYK' (4x8-bit pixels, color separation)
* 'YCbCr' (3x8-bit pixels, color video format)
* 'I' (32-bit signed integer pixels)
* 'F' (32-bit floating point pixels)
PIL also provides limited support for a few special modes, including
'LA' ('L' with alpha), 'RGBX' (true color with padding) and 'RGBa'
(true color with premultiplied alpha).
When translating a color image to grayscale (mode 'L', 'I' or 'F'),
the library uses the ITU-R 601-2 luma transform::
L = R * 299/1000 + G * 587/1000 + B * 114/1000
as_gray : bool
If True, the image is converted using mode 'F'. When `mode` is
not None and `as_gray` is True, the image is first converted
according to `mode`, and the result is then "flattened" using
mode 'F'.
