+jbig2enc (encoder for JBIG2)
+
+JBIG2 encodes bi-level (1 bpp) images using a number of clever tricks
+to get better compression than G4.
+
+The package includes shared libraries, headers, docs, the jbig2(1)
+command-line conversion tool, and pdf.py(1) which post-processes JBIG2
+files to create PDFs.
+
+Use of this software may require patent licenses in some countries.
+You are directed to annex I of the JBIG2 specification for information.
