The fz_image structure is used to represent a generic Image object in MuPDF. It can be viewed as an encapsulation from which both a rendering of an image (as a fz_pixmap) and (often) the original source data can be retrieved.
Further discussion of fz_images is deferred to Images Images in Part 2. While it is perfectly permissible for a caller to create images, in most cases they will treat them as `black boxes' to just be passed around.
