New GraphicsMagick development snapshots appear on a regular basis at
the URL
ftp://ftp.graphicsmagick.org/pub/GraphicsMagick/snapshots
Although these snapshots are called '1.4', this code is targeted for
the 1.3.7 release and not some future "blue sky" release.
Recent improvements include:
* Updated libtiff to 3.9.1 (from 3.8.2)
* TIFF float files from Photoshop CS2 (16/24/32 bit floats) can now
be read and written under Microsoft Windows.
* Can now write true grayscale JPEG-compressed TIFF.
* Memory leaks in the WMF reader fixed.
* CMS transforms (via LCMS) now see linear speedup on multi-core
systems.
* Drawing of points, lines, and polygons (as well as higher-level
shapes depending on those) is now accelerated with OpenMP.
* Drawing Wand API improvements.
Please test and let us know about any problems so that they can be
corrected before the next release rather than after.
Thanks,
Bob
