trouble with output after resizing image.

Post by aLabelMaker »

I am needing to resize an image and place in the center of my current box.
I first resize image and then put it in the current box using this command

convert cv001.png Sunfire11.png -gravity center -compose over -composite cv029.png

When I open this new file in illustrator, the outline of the image is a weird rainbow color instead of the black outline that is supposed to be there.
I used the -resize 50% command to change the image size. Is there a better way such as to specify the size in pixels?

Any ideas on why my image is not staying the same after I resize it?
Thanks!

perhaps you need to post links to your original image, resized image and inserted image so others can see the problem and perhaps try it. It could be your version of IM. Try opening it in IM or some other image tool like Photoshop, etc. Perhaps it is Illustrator. It could be some profile issue also. But you need to post your images somewhere (free image hosting servers are available if needed) and then link them to your next post here. See the Img or URL tag buttons above, or just post the web address from which they can be downloaded
