+    As an option, the user may choose to convert colored raster images to grayscale

+    to be implemented.

     Parameters
     ----------
-    imagefile : str
-        This must be an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file or a raster
-        image. An EPS file must contain an appropriate BoundingBox. A
-        raster file can have a depth of 1, 8, 24, or 32 bits and is read
-        via GDAL. **Note**: If GDAL was not configured during GMT installation
-        then only EPS files are supported.
