Transparency ignored in GIF

Post by canavan »

While the usual browsers display a transparent background for the GIF image Image, imagemagick displays (or generates an output image with) a black background. Additionally, convert (tested with 6.8.9-9 and 7.0.2-9) complains:

Code: Select all

convert: invalid colormap index `/tmp/pages.gif' @ error/colormap-private.h/ConstrainColormapIndex/34.

Please provide your exact command line and upload your image to some place such as dropbox.com and put the URL here so we can test with it.

The image is in the OP. It is small, after the words "GIF image".

I suspect it has bad metadata, which some software silently ignores.

It is a 2-bit GIF with 4 colors plus the transparent color; the transparent color is therefore out of range (note the "4c"):

Code: Select all

magick identify *.gif
pages.gif GIF 18x16 18x16+0+0 8-bit sRGB 4c 102B 0.000u 0:00.000

It doesn't surprise me that the image is not according to spec, however I'd prefer if Imagemagick were able to handle these Images more gracefully.

My primary problem is that at the moment, this kind of error is not detectable with PHP/imagick, and I've filed a separate bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73263

Is there any way to detect this error when using the C api?

Trying to detect any error with the code below doesn't show up any errors.

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <malloc.h>
#include <wand/MagickWand.h>
    

int main(int argc,char **argv) {
    MagickWand *magick_wand;
    MagickBooleanType status;
    char *exception_text;
    ExceptionType severity;

    MagickWandGenesis();
    magick_wand = NewMagickWand();
    status = MagickReadImage(magick_wand, "./images/pages_invalid_gif.gif");

    if (status == MagickFalse) {
        printf("Failed to MagickReadImage");
        return -1;
    }
    exception_text = MagickGetException(magick_wand, &severity);

    if (exception_text == NULL) {
        printf("exception_text is NULL\n");
    }
    else {
        printf("exception_text is %s\n", exception_text);
    }
    
    printf("Severity is %d\n", severity);

    MagickSetImageFormat(magick_wand, "png");

    status = MagickWriteImages(magick_wand, "./73263.png", MagickTrue);
    if (status == MagickFalse) {
        printf("Failed to MagickWriteImages");
        return -1;
    }

    MagickWandTerminus();
 
    return(0);
}
