Pillow Basics
summary
Covers practical Pillow operations: install via pip plus optional system libs for better format support, open images from paths, bytes or tar, show/save/close files, and the exact files produced (python.tiff, python.jpg, python.ppm, python.webp). Demonstrates mode conversion to avoid errors when saving RGBA to JPEG by setting mode to RGB, resizing (example 700→1400×700), libjpeg zlib libtiff libfreetype libwebp, RGBA vs RGB causing JPEG errors, and thumbnail is in‑place. Crop, rotate and transpose use pixel coordinates and work as shown.
