GdkMagick is an image conversion and communication library for the ImageMagick and GDK toolkits. GdkMagick includes functions which allow an application to convert an image back and forth between an ImageMagick image structure and a GDK pixmap, bitmap, or image structure. GdkMagick uses the GdkRGB routines to manage color and to perform the actual image rendering, including dithering when not enough colors are available.

1 commentGdkMagick competes with Imlib!
GdkMagick provides the glue required to allow use of the powerful ImageMagick library similar to how Gtk+ developers use the popular ImLib today. Since ImageMagick has been open source since 1993 and has been under constant development, it is an excellent base to work from whenever you need to read or write an image (over 50 formats), draw text or objects on an image, or process an image (over 65 operations).
