Currently I am using ImageMagick to merge multiple PDFs into one in a PHP script on my Linux system. However, the resulting PDFs are of very low quality. I have stumbled across pdftk which seems to have a better quality after the merging, but I need to use ImageMagick if possible because I need to get the script to run on another server ...
I'm looking for an easy way to generate previews for labels generated as pdfs. It would be great if I could convert these pdfs to images and show them to the user before the actual print/download. The application is currently running in a Jruby on rails environment, but it's quite possible that we switch to two applications, one running...
From command line with imagemagick, you can use: convert dragon.gif -resize 64x64^ -gravity center -extent 64x64 fill_crop_dragon.gif to resize and then crop an image so that it fills the area as much as possible. How do I do this from Perl's Image::Magick? ...
I have an image I have manipulated with GD::Image and I want to do further manipulations with Image::Magick. I'd like to avoid writing the image out to disk just so Image::Magick can read it in. Image::Magick's Read function will accept a filehandle as a parameter, so I'm trying to pass it an IO::Scalar object I created with the output...
I'm running OSX Leopard with MAMP (a sandbox consisting of Apache/MySQL/PHP). I installed ImageMagick using MacPorts by following this tutorial: http://www.brybot.ca/archives/getting-imagemagick-and-more-to-work-with-mamp-on-os-x/ Then I added extension=imagick.so to the php.ini But PHP won't recognize it. It keeps telling me: Fatal e...
I am developing a photo gallery which will read/write EXIF tags. I will put photo title in the EXIF tag DocumentName and description in EXIF tag ImageDescription. I also plan to use the geo-tags. But what about photo tags/categories? I want to store a space-separated string of the tags a photo is tagged with in my system. Is there any EX...
I'm working on a package which includes rescaling of images in PHP. For image rescaling, PHP has the GD and ImageMagick libraries. Are those likely to be part of a given client's PHP install already? Is there a "default" install of PHP, for that matter? By default, are either GD or ImageMagick included? If neither is installed, should ...

I need to save a bunch (several thousand) of images with imagemagick. I'm totally new to it, and its documentation seems totally opaque and totally labyrinth. Where's the quickstart guide? Looking at it, I think I want to use mogrify. so I cd to my program files directory where I installed imagemagick. I run mogrify -format png *.pn...
I've been getting this error for a while on my production server (Ubuntu running ImageMagick, Rmagick, etc). From Googling around it seems to be not finding the right fonts to use, and this needs to be set correctly in sudo nano /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.3.7/config/type-ghostscript.xml When I open up this file it lists a bunch of fonts...

Hi, I need to convert text to an image. Using imagemagick I can get this done. However, part or all of the text could be in Hebrew (an RTL language). This means the words in Hebrew are rendered backwards. If I was assured that the text was only Hebrew, I would have just reversed the text before sending it to ImageMagick. However, this so...
What are the basic operations needed to create a sepia tone? My reference point is the perl imagemagick library, so I can easily use any basic operation. I've tried to quantize (making it grayscale), colorize, and then enhance the image but it's still a bit blurry. ...
In Photoshop you can adjust the hue, saturation and lightness of an image with three sliders. ImageMagick you can modulate the brightness, saturation, and hue. Minimizing the saturation correctly produces a black and white image in both programs. Maxing out the saturation appears close, but ImageMagick appears to soften some of the blo...
I am new to ImageMagick and I am using MagickNet. With ImageMagick, I could use option -strip or -profile '*' with convert command to remove profiles. And in MagickNet, I found some properties and functions releated to profiles, such as EXIFProfile, set_Profile. To remove profiles, I used them like this: // to remove profiles fro...
I started using Qt Creator recently and it seems to work well. A sample application I build on OS X uses the ImageMagick library. No problems there - everything works as expected. I built the ImageMagick libraries from source. Now I move over to the Windows side and the linking troubles start. Qt Creator on Windows uses MinGW and not t...
