simage is a library capable of loading, manipulating and saving images, creating and saving movies (AVI and mpeg), and loading audio. The simage library relies heavily on 3rd party libraries to perform these tasks.

Coin uses simage just to read textures, but the programmer is of course free to use the other features of the simage library directly.

Supported image file formats

• JPEG: reading and writing (through libjpeg)
• PNG: reading and writing (using libpng and zlib)
• GIF
• TIFF
• RGB: reading only
• PIC: reading only
• TGA (targa): reading only
• EPS (encapsulated postscript): writing only

Supported video file formats

• AVI: writing
• MPEG

Supported audio file formats

• OGG

3rd party libraries used in simage

These libraries are by default linked statically with the simage dll.

• The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG software (libjpeg) This C library for reading and writing of compressed JPEG files is developed by the Independent JPEG Group.
• PNG library (libpng) This library was written as a companion to the PNG specification.
• compression library (zlib) This library is a general purpose data compression library that is used by libpng.
