![API Changes
Default resampling filter for I;16* image modes
The default resampling filter for I;16, I;16L, I;16B and I;16N has been changed from Image.NEAREST to Image.BICUBIC, to match the majority of modes.
API Additions
Writing XMP bytes to JPEG and MPO
XMP data can now be saved to JPEG files using an xmp argument:
im.save("out.jpg", xmp=b"test")
The data can also be set through info, for use when saving either JPEG or MPO images:
im.info["xmp"] = b"test"
im.save("out.jpg")
Other Changes
Python 3.13
Pillow 10.4.0 had wheels built against Python 3.13 beta, available as a preview to help others prepare for 3.13, and to ensure Pillow could be used immediately at the release of 3.13.0 final (2024-10-07, PEP 719).
Pillow 11.0.0 now officially supports Python 3.13.
Support has also been added for the experimental free-threaded mode of PEP 703.
Python 3.13 only supports macOS versions 10.13 and later.
C-level Flags
Some compiling flags like WITH_THREADING, WITH_IMAGECHOPS, and other WITH_* were removed. These flags were not available through the build system, but they could be edited in the C source.](/proxy/post_attachment/320466/07af199a3f.png "API Changes
