<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I'd like to use PIL to prep an image file to improve OCR
quality.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Specifically, I need to filter out all but black pixels
from the image (i.e., convert all non-black pixels to white while retaining the
black pixels).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Can someone please direct me to the appropriate PIL
function/method to accomplish this along with a brief description of the correct
arguments to use?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Thanks for your help.</FONT></DIV>
