<a name="libvips-conversion.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>These operations convert an image in some way. They can be split into a two
main groups.</p>
<p>The first set of operations change an image's format in some way. You
can change the band format (for example, cast to 32-bit unsigned
int), form complex images from real images, convert images to
matrices and back, change header fields, and a few others.</p>
<p>The second group move pixels about in some way. You can flip, rotate,
extract, insert and join pairs of images in various ways.</p>

<p>Copy an image, optionally modifying the header. VIPS copies images by 
copying pointers, so this operation is instant, even for very large images.</p>
<p>You can optionally change any or all header fields during the copy. You can
make any change which does not change the size of a pel, so for example
you can turn a 4-band uchar image into a 2-band ushort image, but you
cannot change a 100 x 100 RGB image into a 300 x 100 mono image.</p>

<p>Chop a tall thin image up into a set of tiles, lay the tiles out in a grid. </p>
<p>The input image should be a very tall, thin image containing a list of
smaller images. Volumetric or time-sequence images are often laid out like
this. This image is chopped into a series of tiles, each <em class="parameter"><code>tile_height</code></em>

pixels high and the width of <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em>
. The tiles are then rearranged into a grid
<em class="parameter"><code>across</code></em>
 tiles across and <em class="parameter"><code>down</code></em>
 tiles down in row-major order.</p>
<p>Supplying <em class="parameter"><code>tile_height</code></em>
, <em class="parameter"><code>across</code></em>
 and <em class="parameter"><code>down</code></em>
 is not strictly necessary, we
only really need two of these. Requiring three is a double-check that the
image has the expected geometry. </p>

<p>Optional arguments:</p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>shift</code></em>
: integer values are shifted</p>
<p>Convert <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em>
 to <em class="parameter"><code>format</code></em>
. You can convert between any pair of formats.
Floats are truncated (not rounded). Out of range values are clipped.</p>
<p>Casting from complex to real returns the real part. </p>
<p>If <em class="parameter"><code>shift</code></em>
 is <code class="literal">TRUE</code>, integer values are shifted up and down. For example,
casting from unsigned 8 bit to unsigned 16 bit would
shift every value left by 8 bits. The bottom bit is copied into the new
bits, so 255 would become 65535.  </p>
