I'm having trouble using IMagick to resize images and change their DPI while retaining their transparency. I have tried with both PNGs and GIFs. For PNGs the transparency turns black and for GIFs the transparency turns white. This happens whether I just do the resize or just change the DPI setting. Details are as follows

Code is as follows:

Code: Select all

	$image_file = new Imagick(file_directory_path() . "/image.gif");
	$image_file->setImageOpacity(1.0);
	if (!$image_file->resampleImage(300, 300, 0, 1) || !$image_file->resizeImage(70 * (300/72), 70 * (300/72), 0, 1)) {
		#Error out
	}
	else {
		$image_file->writeImage(file_directory_path() . "/image.gif");
	}

Realized I should also include my imagick library info

Okay, for anyone else who might experience this issue, I've discovered the solution. Basically, you need to load in your image like this:

Code: Select all

	$image_file = new Imagick(file_directory_path() . "/image.png");
	$image_file->setImageColorspace(imagick::COLORSPACE_TRANSPARENT);
	$image_file->readImage(file_directory_path() . "/image.png");

The reason for this is that you need to have the colorspace set to transparent when you load your image, but you also can't set the colorspace until after an image has been loaded. So basically, you need to load your image twice (or load a tiny image the first time I guess if you want to streamline things).
