Create a bitmap file in python 3.4

I need to create a white bitmap file with python 3.4. I already searched in the internet but the modules "Image" or "ImageDraw" dont work in Python 3.4. So how can i create a bitmap file? Or maybe which modules i have to use?

Solution

  • Get pillow, which runs on 2.6 to 3.4.

    pip install pillow

    should work at a command line (and will if in python34/Scripts). Because it is a compatible fork of PIL, it is imported as PIL. I have not used it yet, but from the docs,

    from PIL import Image
im = Image.new(<specs>)  # size, pixel deptch
im.save('x.bmp', ...)

    should do what you want.
