Possible to add .FLIF support?

Post by RawBerry »

I would love to use the FLIF image format in ImageMagick, as it seems to be superior to the more commonly used JPEG and PNG formats in every way.

Is it possible to integrate .FLIF support to ImageMagick? Would that be something I could do myself? (I'm a developer, although I have zero experience with ImageMagic development)

Or is this worth considering as a suggestion for a future version of ImageMagick?

Your reference says:

ImageMagick supports FLIF since versions 6.9.4-5 and 7.0.1-7.

But "identify -list formats" doesn't list FLIF when I run it on Windows 10. Is it only supported on other OSes? The source code claims to be compilable for Windows.

What version of IM? For pre-built binaries versions 6.9.9-50 and 7.0.7-28, on Windows 8.1, FLIF is listed in "-list format".
