differences between 6.2.x and 6.5.x

[cstueben]

Hi there,

can anyone please tell me the possible differences of the command line options / usage of "convert" in versions 6.2.x and 6.5.x of ImageMagick (on Linux). I have a special gallery TYPO3-Extension which explicitly runs with ImageMagick 6.2.x only but not with 6.5.x.

With best regards

Christian

There are lots of differences and improvements but mostly they should be backward compatible.

The biggest different is probably using -define jpeg:size={WIDTH}x{HEIGHT}
instead of the overloaded image creation size setting -size {WIDTH}x{HEIGHT}
