1 Imager release history. Older releases can be found in Changes.old
3 Imager 0.73 - unreleased
6 - implement outline circles, both anti-aliased and not
7 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19755
9 - a combine => "none" fill to a 1 or 3 channel image would produce
12 Imager 0.72 - 09 Dec 2009
15 Bump version for release, since 0.71_03 is stable with CPAN testers.
17 Imager 0.71_03 - 5 Dec 2009
20 - further adjust the threads test so it only performs the tests on
21 perls where it's expected to work, and only if the threads module
24 Imager 0.71_02 - 1 Dec 2009
27 - adjust the way we load the threads module for the threads test so
28 it works with non-threaded perls
30 Imager 0.71_01 - 30 Nov 2009
35 - use scanline oriented operations to flip images instead of pixel
37 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39278
39 - use double/sample operations to flip large sample images instead of
40 8-bit sample operations.
41 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39280
44 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=51874
46 - prevent double-frees when someone creates Imager objects and then
47 creates a thread. Note: this just handles some simple cases,
48 Imager doesn't support perl threads, and isn't likely to.
49 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=52268
51 Imager 0.71 - 16 Nov 2009
54 - add the opacity fill type - an adaptor that modifies the opacity of
59 - the conv filter now enforces that the sum of the coefficients is
60 non-zero. Also, rather than skipping pixels off the edge off the
61 edge of the image, the closest edge pixel is used. Previously
62 dividing by the zero sum of coefficients could cause invalid
63 results or runtime exceptions.
64 Thanks to David Cantrell's Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box for revealing
67 Imager 0.70 - 21 Sep 2009
72 - release image row and comments memory on all error returns in gif
75 - handle zero length extensions, previously this would cause a null
77 Thanks to Krzysztof WojtaÅ for the test data and fix for this.
79 - an integer division meant that preview scaling to below 1 pixel
80 wide or high (which isn't too useful anyway) was calculating using
81 NaNs on most platforms, and causing an exception on others.
82 Thanks to David Cantrell for producing a backtrace of the crash on
83 his Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box which made it possible to track this
86 Imager 0.69 - 08 Sep 2009
91 - broken test fix - was attempting to call a function skip_all, when
92 that should be a parameter to plan().
94 - briefly document apidocs.perl, the tool used to build
95 Imager::APIRef and make some minor enhancements
97 - various minor documentation enhancements and fixes.
99 Imager 0.68 - 07 Sep 2009
102 - Imager->new(file => $filename) and other similar incantations will
104 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48261
108 - avoid using CHECK as a label in Imager::Test
109 http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5220921
111 - re-work most image file test files that require a library into
112 separate library present/not present files to remove stupidly long
115 - don't treat rubthrough() outside the bounds of the target image as
117 http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5185716
119 Imager 0.67_01 - 02 Sep 2009
124 - correct documentation of default of raw image interleave read
126 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=42074
128 - add raw_ prefix to raw read parameters, though the original names
131 - fail the read if an invalid raw_interleave parameter is supplied
133 - warn if no interleave or raw_interleave parameter is supplied,
134 since the documented default was wrong, and incompatible with the
137 - for reading raw images, if raw_storechannels > raw_datachannels,
138 set the extra channels in the image to 0
140 - when probing for executables like freetype-config, search for .bat
141 and .cmd on MSWin32, as well as .exe.
142 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49275
144 - re-work the external libraries section of README:
145 - list Debian and Redhat package names for each library
149 - use the new EU::MM META_MERGE facility instead of generating
150 META.yml from scratch
151 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=47888
153 - use Devel::CheckLib (bundled, modified) to check which release of
154 libtiff is installed and reject 3.9.0
155 http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2088
156 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=543079
158 Imager 0.67 - 12 Dec 2008
163 - fix a packaging error
165 Imager 0.66 - 12 Dec 2008
168 - 24-bit color .ICO/.CUR files can now be read.
172 - an optimization skipping 0 src alpha values could cause the
173 rubthrough() to read past the end of a buffer.
174 http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2008/05/msg1509184.html
176 - corrected a reference leak where writing GIFs would leak memory.
177 This could also happen calling to_paletted().
178 Also documented the underlying long existing feature where the
179 colors parameter is filled with the generated color table and added
181 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41028
183 - write out the image size in bytes field of a BMP correctly.
184 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41406
186 - add limited tests for Imager::ExtUtils
188 - make Imager::ExtUtils->includes use an absolute path, since
189 a relative path could cause failures using Inline::C.
190 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=37353
192 - re-arrange the POD for Imager::Font::BBox:
193 - mark total_width(), pos_width(), end_offset() obsolete, since
194 they're mostly for backwards compatibility
195 - group width methods and height methods
196 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39999
198 Imager 0.65 - 20 May 2008
203 - In some cases when an error occurs reading those parts of a JPEG
204 file after the image the scan-line buffer could be freed a second
205 time. In cases where the the error occured while reading the image
206 data it's possible that the buffer could have leaked.
207 Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this and help in tracking
210 - the gif_screen_height tag was overriding the screen width and being
211 ignored for the screen height when present.
212 https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=35568
214 Imager 0.64 - 23 April 2008
217 This is a bug fix release. This includes a fix for a possible
222 - Possible security issue: The floating point sample path for image
223 based fills had a buffer overflow. This would overwrite the end of
224 a malloc()ed buffer with double precision floats.
225 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35324
228 - check that the result of fileno($fh) is defined rather than simply
229 true when read() or write() is supplied with an fh parameter.
230 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35139
232 - i_scale_axis() wasn't checking the result of i_img_new_ch()
233 resulting in a SIGSEGV when attempting to scale an image to a size
234 too large to fit in memory. This is a NULL pointer access issue,
235 not a buffer overflow.
236 Added a check for the failure.
237 scale_calculate() (and hence scale()) will now fail if any of the
238 scale size parameters are a reference.
239 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35172
241 - Regression: filling a greyscale image with a hatch used the wrong
242 color channels from the supplied fg/bg colors.
243 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35278
245 - fixed a related problem for image fills.
247 Imager 0.63 - 7 April 2008
250 This release primarily contains changes to improve ease of use -
251 rather than you having to convert images to the appropriate number of
252 channels, Imager handles it internally. How to handle drawing colors
253 and the default combine mode is a thornier problem left for some other
256 - the font libraries are now only initialized when needed.
257 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28825
259 - moved the imtoc.perl code into Imager::Preprocess
261 - paste() and rubthrough() now adapt the source image data to the
262 destination, so you can now safely paste/rubthrough from greyscale
263 images to color images or back, or from alpha channel images to
264 noalpha channels or back.
265 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30908
267 - rubthrough() now falls back to pasting when the source doesn't have
268 an alpha channel. This effectively treats the source as having a
269 max alpha channel, the right thing to do.
270 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29944
272 - re-worked most of the area filling code to use a common set of
273 functions when filling.
274 Corrected normal combine mode.
275 Rewrote most of the combine modes to match the way the SVG draft
276 defines them with respect to a translucent source and destination.
277 Added tests for translucent source and destination.
278 Added tests to check 8-bit/sample and double/sample combines work
280 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29879
282 - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a JPEG file will now write that
283 image as if composited against a background, black by default,
284 overridable with the i_background tag/parameter.
285 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29876
287 - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a PGM/PPM file will now write
288 that image as if composited against a background, black by default,
289 overridable with the i_background tag/parameter.
290 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30074
292 - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a BMP file will now write that
293 image as if composited against a background, black by default,
294 overridable with the i_background tag/parameter.
295 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30075
299 - Imager::Matrix2d->translate() now only requires one of the x or y
301 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29937
303 - mixing qtype scaling now sets all channels of a pixel to zero if
304 the pixel has zero coverage (zero alpha). This should produce more
305 compressible output files.
306 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32324
308 - removed the pointless #! line from lib/Imager/Font/Wrap.pm
310 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166254
311 I'm not changing the #! lines of the sample code, since it's sample
312 code, not intended for installation.
313 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=33408
315 - some TGA images weren't being detected correctly as TGA images
316 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32925
318 - handling of the left-over bit for 16-bit/pixel TGA images has been
319 changed to match the behaviour of the GIMP. Previously the bit
320 being set was treated as an opaque pixel, but one user reported a
321 problem with loading such an image. I haven't been able to find any
322 tools beyond the GIMP that handle alpha-channel 16-bit TGAs, so
323 I'll match it's behaviour. See issue 114913 in the GIMP's
325 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32926
327 Imager 0.62 - 10 December 2007
330 - Makefile.PL now expands ~/path supplied to --incpath or --libpath
331 to /path under your home directory.
332 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29484
334 - the old dynaload code used Mach API functions to load dynamic
335 libraries on Mac OS X. These APIs have been deprecated in OS X
336 10.5 and were causing some build problems.
337 So henceforth Imager uses the dlopen() family of functions, and you
338 will need version 10.3 or later of OS X.
340 - added the det() function to the transform2() engine.
341 added the sample quad_to_square.pl
342 Courtesy Richard Fairhurst.
343 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=31244
347 - samples/gifscale.pl sourced the base value for gif_top from
349 Thanks to Eleneldil G. Arilou for pointing this out.
351 - t/t82inline.t no longer loads B at runtime, to work around a bug
352 in some 5.005_0[45] installations.
353 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30508
355 - work around Module::Depends::Intrusive bug #21229
356 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30520
358 - the hardinvert filter no-longer inverts the alpha channel.
359 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30002
361 - the hardinvert filter now supports large samples
363 Imager 0.61_02 - 28 November 2007
366 - major TIFF support re-work
367 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20329
369 - added a C level image interface for accessing samples from 1-32
370 bits, exposed this at the perl level in getsamples()
372 - the conv filter now works at floating point precision for high bit
375 - added is_bilevel method to test whether an image should be written as
376 a bilevel image if the image format supports it.
378 - added -log-stderr as an Imager import list option
380 - added some important types to Imager::APIRef
382 - added test_image_double() to Imager::Test
386 - Imager::Fountain couldn't read GIMP gradient files with 10 or more
389 - the scale() method with qtype mixing now handles images with an
390 alpha channel correctly.
392 - fixed a broken link from the "animated GIF" entry in the concept index.
393 Thanks to Slaven Rezic.
394 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30889
396 - on some perl's the infix expression parser test would fail due to
397 actions in the grammar returning false. Made sure all actions return
399 Thanks to Richard Fairhurst for spending a lot of time in tracking
401 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=29562
403 Imager 0.61 - 5 November 2007
406 - added samples/gifscale.pl, which adjusts the screen size/position tags
407 when scaling an animated gif
408 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27591
412 - correct handling of sz in matrix_transform() - this should allow
413 perspective type transformations to work now.
414 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29936
416 - prevent a cast to integer warning on x64 builds in datatypes.c
417 also fixed some other type warnings
418 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30204
420 - some sub-directory tests depended on files produced by the parent
422 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30203
424 - Imager::Font::Wrap doesn't correctly set savepos
425 thanks to Nikita Dedik and Eleneldil G. Arilou for reporting this.
426 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29771
428 - test 171 in t/t01introvert.t was failing on perls configured to
430 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29413
432 - the code for the transform2() uminus operator was missing a break.
433 Added tests for better code coverage of the ops.
434 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29296
436 - the SGI RLE compression code could overflow its compression buffer
437 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30334
439 - the 32-bit output function used by the SGI code only handled values
440 under 0x10000. This was most noticable when writing large RLE images.
441 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30335
443 - validate chan_count for chans == NULL for each of the i_gsamp()
445 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28985
447 - attempt to work around the test failure at
448 http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2007/09/msg650810.html
449 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29562
451 - improve the error messages produced when attempting to read or write
452 an unknown image file format.
453 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30103
455 - improve the transform2() documentation
456 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29267
458 - correctly generate the author key in META.yml
459 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30377
461 - correctly blend a rotated (or matrix_transformed()) image when
462 performing interpolation in the presence of an alpha channel.
463 Also corrected the centring of the rotated image on the output
466 Imager 0.60 - 30 August 2007
469 - Finished/rewrote Arnar's old SGI RGB file format support, so Imager
470 now has full SGI RGB image format, including RLE and 16-bit/sample
472 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8666
474 - logging functions are now available in the API
476 - applied Gabriel Vasseur's patch
477 added documentation, further tests, and support for greyscale images
478 Obviously problems are my fault :)
479 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28142
481 - the mask for ICO/CUR images is now applied as an alpha channel to
482 the returned image. For the old behaviour, supply ico_masked => 0
483 to read() or read_multi(). This should be less confusing when
484 using Imager as a general image processor.
485 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29001
489 - in some cases it's possible for giflib/libungif to return color
490 indexes outside the range of colors defined by the image's palette.
491 We now expand the palette to match the indexes used.
492 Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this.
494 - fixed various memory leaks that could occur when failing to read png,
495 jpeg, bmp or tga files.
497 - to avoid confusion, channels not present in the image are returned as
498 zero by getscanline(). This has no effect on the C level i_glin()
499 and i_glinf() API functions which continue to not set the unused
502 - the convert() method now returns an image of the same sample size as
504 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28492
506 - remove repeated text in Imager::Files
507 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27589
509 - be even more explicit that scale() and friends don't modify the source
510 image, but return a new image.
511 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28570
513 - improve the error message from errstr() when you try to load a font
514 for which the driver hasn't been built in Imager.
515 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27571
517 - transparency is now enabled by default when writing GIF images
518 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27615
520 - Imager would not load on Windows 98
521 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27653
523 Imager 0.59 - 14 June 2007
528 - fixes a regression introduced by the fixes for RT 11972
529 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27546
531 - cropping outside the image would return an Imager object with
532 no low-level image object, instead of returning false.
533 Fixed by: Philip Gwyn (Leolo)
534 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27509
536 Imager 0.58 - 16 May 2007
539 No significant changes from 0.57_01.
541 Imager 0.57_01 - 11 May 2007
544 - added to_rgb16 to produce a 16-bit/sample version of an image
546 - improve freetype 1.x text output efficiency
550 - search another place for rgb.txt, and check all the places
551 Imager::Color checks when deciding whether to skip testing it
552 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=26064
554 - use a convolution kernel size based on the stddev rather than a
555 fixed size when performing a gaussian blur
556 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=25645
558 - document the difference() method's mindist parameter, and debug it.
560 - put the Imager release number in the Inline::C generated code to
561 regenerate Inline code when a new release of Imager is installed.
562 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=26278
564 - fix rendering on alpha channel images for the FreeType 1.x driver.
565 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=11972
567 - fix rendering on alpha channel images for the T1lib driver.
568 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=11972
570 - reworked library probing, we can now set more than one probe
571 function for a library. Disabled the default (non-freetype-config)
572 library probe and added an extra probe function that searches for
573 both ft2build.h and whatever it includes, and adds -I as needed.
574 Hopefully this will fix build problems like
575 http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2007/05/msg472281.html
576 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=26086
578 Imager 0.57 - 30 Apr 2007
581 This is a maintenence release fixing a security issue in Imager.
583 - CRITICAL: a specially crafted compressed BMP file can cause a buffer
584 overflow in malloced memory. There will be further discussion of
585 this issue in the ticket below.
586 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=26811
587 CVE-2007-2459 CVE-2007-2413
588 The descriptions at cve.mitre.org varied in quality, please see the
589 ticket at rt.cpan.org for a more accurate description of the issue.
591 Imager 0.56 - 1 Apr 2007
594 - added support for reading 16-bit/sample PGM/PPM images
596 - added support for writing 16-bit/sample PGM/PPM images
598 - improved performance of reading PBM/PGM/PPM images
600 - added support for writing PBM images if the image is paletted and
601 contains only black and white
603 - added a new make_colors value - "mono"
605 - switched from the svn log Changes to a manual Changes to reduce
608 - new sample code - samples/flasher.pl
612 - CRITICAL: the "Imager" typemap entry (not used by Imager itself)
613 was returning an image object with an extra reference, this
614 resulted in a memory leak.
615 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24992
617 - fix rendering on alpha channel images for the FreeType 2.x driver
618 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=11972
620 - reading bmp files now consitently handles short reads. You can now
621 supply a parameter to treat a short read as successful and set
623 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8426
625 - previously, reading ASCII PBM files required spaces between samples,
626 even though the format doesn't require that
628 - improved documentation of the unsharpmask filter (I hope)
629 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=25531
631 - force flushing of the output from i_tt_dump_names() and test output
632 in t/t35ttfont.t to prevent output from being mixed up.
633 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24859
635 - rewrite a conditional expression as an if() to hopefully work around
636 a bug in the pre-4.0 GCC Apple shipped with OS X 10.4.
637 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=25561
639 - avoid Data::Dumper in regops.perl to support older releases of perl
640 https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24391
642 Imager 0.55 - 16 Dec 2006
645 This is primarily a bug fix release.
647 Note: Test::More is now a pre-requisite for Imager and is no longer bundled.
649 There is one new feature:
651 - the Win32 font driver now supports UTF8 (RT 22166)
652 http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276
653 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=22166
655 Several bugs were fixed:
657 - the string() method would not output the string "0"
658 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770
660 - fills.c was failing to compile on Solaris 10 (compiler unknown)
661 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21944
663 - the gif_disposal and gif_user_input tags weren't being read from
665 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=22192
667 - gif.c was failing to build under MSVC
668 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23922
670 - in some cases strings passed to the string() method were treated as
671 terminated by NUL (chr 0)
672 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770
674 - on "MSWin32" perl builds we now link to -lzlib instead of -lz since
675 that's the default build name for zlib on Win32.
676 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23064
678 - search $Config{incpath} for headers too, which we should have been
681 Win32 font driver fixes:
683 - the global descent value from bounding box was the wrong sign
684 http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276
686 - if the first or last glyph overflowed the left or right side of the
687 advance width they would be clipped
690 Imager 0.54 - 14 Sep 2006
693 This is primarily a feature release:
695 - a new qtype value 'mixing' has been added to the scale()
696 method. This is faster than 'normal', slower than 'preview'. This
697 is based on the method used by pnmscale, and seems to produce less
698 blurry results than normal.
699 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20677
701 - the rubthrough() method can now render onto images with an alpha
703 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20678
705 - the read_multi() method now falls back to calling doing a single
706 image read via the read() method and write_multi() will now fall
707 back to calling write() if a single image is supplied. This means
708 you can simply call the read_multi() or write_multi() functions
709 without having to check if the type is formatted by that method.
710 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19457
711 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19458
713 - the GIF loop extension can now be written. If you don't have
714 libungif/giflib 4.1.4 (or some distribution's bugfixed equivalent) you
716 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=21185
718 - getscanline() and setscanline() can now read/write palette index
719 based data from/to the image for paletted images, by setting type to
721 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20338
723 - we no longer hassle you to disable GIF support
724 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20687
726 - minor documentation fixes
729 Imager 0.53 - 26 Jul 2006
732 This is a bugfix release.
734 Some test code was left in a code path not covered by the test
735 suite. A test was added to cover this code path and the test code was

740 Imager 0.52 - 25 Jul 2006
743 This is primarily a feature release, but contains a fair few bug
746 - ability to read and write MS Windows ICO and CUR files
748 - you can now add file format plugins to support new file formats
750 - add POD coverage tests
752 - setcolors() and addcolors() now accept color names and so on
753 instead of requiring Imager::Color objects.
754 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20056
756 - flood_fill() can now fill to a specified border color instead of
757 just to the area the same color as the seed.
758 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19618
763 - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't converting UTF8 to ascii when
764 calculating the advance width.
765 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20554
767 - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't including leading and
768 trailing spaces in the bounding box as the other drivers did, it also
769 produced strange results for empty strings or strings containing only
772 - when reading CMYK jpeg images they were being transferred to the
773 image object as is, producing a four channel image. It only looked ok
774 due to an old still unfixed Photoshop bug. We now convert from the
775 inverted CMYK that photoshop (and Corel for example) produce into RGB.
776 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20416
778 - reading a CYMK TIFF would result in a 4 channel image, reading any
779 image with more than 4 channels (eg. RGB with 2 alpha channels) would
781 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20415
783 - added /usr/local/include to the default include search path, since
784 we were already searching /usr/local/lib for libraries.
786 And various minor fixes and documentation updates.

802 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18561
805 Imager 0.50 - 29 Mar 2006
808 - CRITICAL: fixes a segmentation fault from attempting to write a 2
809 or 4 channel image to jpeg or a 2 channel image to tga where the
810 output is an in-memeory buffer.
811 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18397
