Using the new Tachyon profiler coming to Python 3.15 I profiled a one-liner to find a bottleneck, then sped up some 26-year-old code in @pillow!

Pillow 11.3.0 has been released!

🐍🚀🎨 Pillow 11.2.1 has been released!

What happened to 11.2.0?

Two things: we added AVIF support which made the wheels much bigger, and we hit the PyPI project size limit before the release could be fully updated.

11.2.1 instead has AVIF support but needs to be built from source. We'll look into including AVIF in wheels in a future release so that the size doesn't increase so much.

This release also adds Arrow support and more:

Pillow 11.1.0 is out! One of the cool updates is we're using zlib-ng 2.2.2 instead of zlib 1.2.8/1.3.1, which is more than twice as fast at saving PNGs at higher compression levels. github.com/python-pillo... #Pillow #Python #PythonPillow #release #zlib #zlibng #png

Pillow 10.4.0 has been released!

There are deprecations, a security fix and further type hinting. For the official word, read more at https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/releasenotes/10.4.0.html

#PythonPillow #Python #Pillow #OpenSource #release

I thought I had figured out a clever way to automatically add alt texts to images for InDesign using #PythonPillow and the 'ImageDescription' field, but then I learned that said field is ASCII only.

The XMP data could support unicode, but working with that is apparently a total pain.

This was our first release with cibuildwheel + PyPI publish GitHub Action + Trusted Publishers and it went smoothly!

Thanks to the teams who created those, and as always, to all our contributors.

#PythonPillow #Python #Pillow #OpenSource #release

🥚🐰🛞🐍 Exciting!

I'm doing the first @pillow release using cibuildwheel + PyPI publish GitHub Action + Trusted Publishers!

It'll take just under three hours to build 68 wheels and an sdist, and then upload them automatically to @pypi 🤞

The matrix covers CPython 3.8-3.12, PyPy 3.9-3.10, manylinux, musllinux, macOS Intel + Apple Silicon, Windows 32-bit + 64-bit + ARM...

Pillow 10.1.0 is out!

Python 3.12 is officially supported.

A new ImageOps.cover method has been added, that a resized version of the image, so that the requested size is covered, while maintaining the original aspect ratio.

Pillow had a “better than nothing” default font. Now, if FreeType is available, a version of Aileron Regular is loaded, which can be drawn at chosen font sizes.
