Quality
The Quality parameter defines whether the image should be delivered as:
| Name | Definition |
|---|---|
| Default | The source colour |
| Gray | Grayscale |
| Bitonal | Each pixel is black or white |
| Color | The color image. This could be a colorized black and white image |
This can be useful for some image processing tools like OCR generation. To see what types a image server supports you can look into the info.json profile section:
