This component is based on image manipulation routines of the KDE libraries 
that come from the ImageMagick library.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ImageMagick

I often don't know what is the effect of all routines and their arguments, but 
there is a documentation on the ImageMagick web site. But I didn't have the 
time to fully read it and document the component on the wiki.
