This document introduces you to the Imaging Plug-ins component.
The Imaging Plug-ins component is used by the Imaging Frameworks component to access image formats.
An understanding of image formats is required, see Imaging Frameworks Overview.
The Imaging Plug-ins component interacts with the Imaging Framework component.
Note: A client application cannot access the Imaging plug-ins directly as all communication is done through the Imaging Framework component.
