IM lowers color depth when I don't want it to

[posfan12]

I am using the following command on a 24bit input file:

Code: Select all

convert "%ImgPath%\Walls_Misc00.png" -crop 64x96+0+32! "%ImgPath%\Walls_Misc00_crop.png"

However, the result is an 8bit image. How do I make it so that the image stays 24bit? Thanks!

Prefix the output filename with PNG24: like this:

Code: Select all

convert "%ImgPath%\Walls_Misc00.png" -crop 64x96+0+32! "PNG24:%ImgPath%\Walls_Misc00_crop.png"

That worked, thanks.
