It can able to read and write over 200 image files such as JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, and Photo CD image formats and it is also used for thumbnail or captcha generation. It also includes command-line options for creating transparent or animated gif image formats and many more features like resize, sharpen, rotate or add special effects to an image.
