Re: EPS to GIF quality

With your help I finally got the GIF where I think I need it (still awaiting for approval). In regards to GIF, I didn't pick nor would I if I had a choice. When I was first asked I immediately asked about PNG instead and was told no. Funny part is that yesterday they said that was a fall-back file ...

Re: EPS to GIF quality

To clarify, I'm still outputting a GIF. I'm just starting with a JPG instead of an EPS. It appears that there was a problem with Imagemagick recognizing the line size from the original EPS.

Re: EPS to GIF quality

I think I'm where I need to go. It appears that most of the problems were related to the EPS file. I was able to go back to our source and export a JPG. Transformation using that came out cleaner and maintained the line weights. Thank you for your help. Hopefully my future postings, if there are any ...

Re: EPS to GIF quality

I don't think I was clear. I need the lines to come over in the same ratio as they are in the EPS. Basically, the EPS has two line thicknesses, but the GIF appears to translate them all to one thickness. Below is the complete cmd line I'm using. Not sure where the problem is coming from. Convert ...

Re: EPS to GIF quality

Still not there. I'm going to work on it more tomorrow, but I see that using your density/resize approach, as well as my original, does not maintain line thicknesses. They all appear to be the same thickness. If you reference the EPS, the art should be a .5point while the lines marked with a W/H/L ...

Re: EPS to GIF quality

Tried to use DropBox, but security is preventing. I did create a login so you may get your storage space increase. In regards to the file, I rushed to get it done before a meeting and forgot an export setting that creates the eps. I've corrected (and double checked) that the art is there. Same link ...

Took a bit to find one that allowed EPS files. Below is a sample of the eps.

Re: EPS to GIF quality

I think the problem with density not working was the source eps file. I converted straight to an svg and then used your method and it did resize. Original problem still remains however. Any line that is an angle is very jagged.

EPS to GIF quality

I am attempting to convert simple black and white eps files. The files are line drawings with a 1/2 point thickness. When a line goes at an angle, the line becomes very jagged. First, most of my problem is that quality that I am forced to use. The request is for 315x145 pixels at a 72dpi res. I also ...
