.svg problems

[weeks]

Hi,

I am trying to convert a .svg image to a .bmp image of the same name. Using the command "convert -size 44 file.svg file.bmp" doesn't do a very good job, even using the +antialias option does not preserve the image integrity or quality. Using the command "convert -density 7.2 + antialias file.svg file.bmp" produces better results. The .svg file is not complex, am I just using the wrong command? or missing an option? This is an example of the type of .svg file I am trying to convert. Any help is appreciated.

Post the resulting image here. We use

• convert file.svg file.bmp

and get a fine looking result. We're using ImageMagick 6.4.8-8.

The problem is the .svg 400X400 file from as seen above needs to be resized to a 44X44 .bmp, when this is done the image gets distorted and is not a clean .bmp file. If I bring the .svg file into Gimp and resize on import as 44X44 and save as bitmap I get the result I want a clean undistorted bitmap, however i have hundreds of images to transform so Image Magick is what I want to use with a script however it is not giving me the desired result.

Have you tried:

• convert -density 8 image.svg image.bmp

We get decent looking results.

Or

Code: Select all

convert image.svg -resize 44x44 image.bmp
