ExactImage is an image processing library which reimplements
ImageMagick functions with a significant speed improvement.
The library also provides several new algorithms: lossless JPEG
transforms and creation of searchable PDFs from hOCR annotated HTML
created with an OCR program such as Tesseract or Cuneiform (available
at Slackbuilds.org). There are bindings for PHP, Lua, Perl, and Python.
See /usr/doc/exact-image-*/examples/ for information on using exactimage
with Perl, Python, PHP and Lua.

ExactImage requires agg. Lua and evas are optional dependencies available
at Slackbuilds.org, while bardecode is optional but not available.
