Claricle detects an image's format from its bytes -- PNG, SVG, EMF, WMF, EPS, PS and PDF -- and gives one object and one set of models to work with. The name combines "clarity" and "particle". It inspects, checks conformance and converts between formats, wrapping png_conform, svg_conform, vectory and pdfrb behind a single interface.

Vectory performs pairwise vector image conversions for common vector image formats, such as SVG, EMF, EPS and PS.
