-JBIG is a highly effective lossless compression algorithm for
-high-resolution bi-level images (one bit per pixel), which is
-particularly suitable for scanned documents or fax pages.
-
-JBIG-KIT provides a portable library of compression and decompression
-functions with a documented interface that you can include very easily
-into your image or document processing software. In addition, JBIG-KIT
-provides ready-to-use compression and decompression programs with a
-simple command line interface
-
-IMPORTANT NOTICE
-
-It seems that some of the JBIG algorithms implemented in JBIG-KIT were
-or may be still covered by patents. JBIG-KIT comes without any patent
-license as its author is not sure which patents affect which use of
-JBIG in which country. With this being said, you should compile and
-use JBIG-KIT on your own.
