ImageEn is the most powerful native image library available for Delphi and C++ Builder, and also available for .NET. The library includes a complete suite of components to handle all aspects of image and editing, analysis and display. Join thousands of other developers who rely on ImageEn to add professional multimedia functionality to their software.
