The '''pano12''' library was originally created by [[Helmut Dersch]] as the core of [[Panorama Tools]]. The license is the [http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html#SEC1 GNU General Public License (GPL)] and full sourcecode is available from the [http://panotools.sf.net/ panotools sourceforge site].

'''pano12''' is currently used by many [[GUI front-ends|front-end]] and command-line programs. The file itself may be called pano12.dll, libpano12.so, libpano12.dylib or pano12.lib depending on the operating system.

Due to apparent patent issues with [[Fisheye Projection|fisheye]] lenses, some distributed versions of the library (including the one hosted on sourceforge) have an artificial limitation of 160 degrees placed on the maximum [[field of view]] of source images.

== Other tools in the pano12 source ==

If you [[build pano12 from sourcecode]], various helper applications are built at the same time:

* [[PTOptimizer]] Optimizes positions and sizes of images using [[control points|control point]] data.
* [[panoinfo]] reports useful information about the currently installed version of pano12.
* [[PTmender]] a replacement for [[PTStitcher]].
* [[PTblender]] implements just the colour and brightness correction of [[PTmender]].
* [[PTtiff2psd]] Converts a set of [[TIFF]] files into a [[PSD]] file, similar to Erik Krause's [[stitching actions]].

== Downloading pre-compiled versions ==

The original '''pano12''' library for Linux, Mac classic and Windows can be downloaded from one of the [[mirrors]], though you probably want to download a newer version containing many bugfixes and speed improvements:

For Linux and other unix systems, look at the [[Hugin]] download page. Currently packages are available for debian, fedora, gentoo, mandrake and probably others.

For OS X a version is supplied with [[Hugin]] or [[PTMac]].

For Windows you might download pano12.dll from [http://www.photocreations.ca/panotools/ Photocreations] or [http://sf.net/projects/panotools/ sourceforge], you can also find it bundled with [[PTAssembler]] and [[PTGui]].
