I'm also surprised that this does not exists. The transform_img function does return "The transformed img, may have another i.e. (bigger) shape than the source" which indicates that this is a possibility, but there seems to be no flag to control it. Right now I'm resorting to first creating a padded image to give to tranform_img function.

This is actually the right approach. The constant image dimensions are important wrt the DFT, so in order to prevent unwanted clipping, one has to have a buffer made of padding. I think that making images twice as large is safe enough. A big difference in scale is not something that DFT will cope with easily.
