Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Hi all...

I'm new in dealing with Image Magick so, this may be a silly question.

I need to convert one tif image in two jpg's. The dpi must be changed, however the width and heigth must remain as well as the clipping path.

I'm doing this:
convert tif1.tif -resample 150x150 -resize 952x3424 tif_result_1.jpg
and
convert tif1.tif -resample 75x75 -resize 952x3424 tif_result_2.jpg

952x3424 is the original width and heigth that must remain.

But when I see the Windows properties of the result images, the dpis remains 300 (like the original). The same thing happens when i open the image in Photoshop.
If I use -strip option, as i've read in some posts, the dpis is shown correctly... however the image lose the clipping path.

This only happens when i try to convert tif to jpg. If i convert jpg in tif everything goes well.

So, what I must do to this works? Any one can help me?

Thanks

try using -density instead of what you are doing

convert tif1.tif -density 150 tif_result_1.jpg
convert tif1.tif -density 75 tif_result_2.jpg

see
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... hp#density

I also tried to use density and size... but the result is the same.

-size will do nothing. Just -density should change the dpi and leave the image size unchanged. You might try adding -strip.

convert tif1.tif -strip -density 150 tif_result_1.jpg

Can you post a link to your input image so others can test it?

Hi...

-strip will work, however the result image lose the Clipping Path... and I really need it.

Later I'll post the image - I have to ask for permission.

Here is the image:

The following works for me on IM 6.7.6.1 Q16 Mac OSX Snow Leopard

convert tif1.tif -density 150 tif1_150.jpg

Note in the following the resolution is 150x150

identify -verbose tif1_150.jpg

But in Photoshop, the image appears with 300 dpi. Do you know why?

Sorry, no, I do not know why? Photoshop may keep special information in its meta data different from the norm. That is probably why when you use -strip it works out correctly. But I am not an expert on that. Perhaps there is a way in IM or some other tool like EXIFTOOL to remove just the photoshop meta-data. But again I am not an expert on that.

Perhaps one of the IM developers may be able to shed more light on how to remove just certain meta data such as photoshop data.

You might also report this as a bug, especially since when you convert to tiff while changing the density, it still remains as 300 in IM. Verify it for yourself and then post as a bug along with your problem with saving as jpg.

convert tiff1.tif -density 150 tiff1_150.tif

Thank's for the help... I'll do that.

The other approach to explore might be to somehow extract the clip data, use -strip -density 150 to process the image, then somehow add the clip data back. But again I don't know if/how the latter step would be done.

See -set and +set at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... 0f6c03#set

I have not tried this, however.

Tif to Tif it's ok. Only fails when is Tif to Jpg.

Not for me using IM.
