Join the early access program to forge imgproxy's future!

Need to feed your image to a system that only accepts PDFs?
imgproxy Pro can cover you back here! Just set the output format to `pdf` and imgproxy will create a PDF file with your image embedded in it.

New security measures in imgproxy πŸ”
Signed URLs remain best practice. But if you can’t use them (hello, frontend-only flows), we’ve added guardrails so your instance stays tight. Jump into the thread.
