class PIL.IcoImagePlugin.IcoImageFile(fp=None, filename=None)

Bases: PIL.ImageFile.ImageFile

PIL read-only image support for Microsoft Windows .ico files.

By default the largest resolution image in the file will be loaded. This can be changed by altering the ‘size’ attribute before calling ‘load’.

The info dictionary has a key ‘sizes’ that is a list of the sizes available in the icon file.

Handles classic, XP and Vista icon formats.

When saving, PNG compression is used. Support for this was only added in Windows Vista. If you are unable to view the icon in Windows, convert the image to “RGBA” mode before saving.

ifd.tagtype[key] = TiffTags.ASCII
print(ifd[key])
('Some Data',)

Also contains a dictionary of tag types as read from the tiff image file, tagtype.

class PIL.TiffImagePlugin.ImageFileDirectory_v2(ifh=b'II*\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00', prefix=None, group=None)

Bases: collections.abc.MutableMapping

This class represents a TIFF tag directory. To speed things up, we don’t decode tags unless they’re asked for.

Exposes a dictionary interface of the tags in the directory:

ifd = ImageFileDirectory_v2()
ifd[key] = 'Some Data'
ifd.tagtype[key] = TiffTags.ASCII
print(ifd[key])
'Some Data'

Individual values are returned as the strings or numbers, sequences are returned as tuples of the values.

The tiff metadata type of each item is stored in a dictionary of tag types in tagtype. The types are read from a tiff file, guessed from the type added, or added manually.

Data Structures:

• self.tagtype = {}

  • Key: numerical tiff tag number

  • Value: integer corresponding to the data type from

    ~PIL.TiffTags.TYPES`
