PCD image not written correctly

[Jason S]

I think that IM (as of v6.8.5-4) reads PCD (Photo CD) files correctly, but when it writes them, the colors are all wrong.

Test case:

Code: Select all

convert rose: -resize '768x512!' PCD:rose.pcd
convert rose.pcd rose.png

Actual result: The rose in rose.png is green.
Expected result: Roses are red.

(And no, I don't know why anyone would want to create new PCD files.)

What version of IM and platform.

It works OK for me (IM 6.8.5.5 Q16 Mac OSX Snow Leopard), except it looks a little burry (with display rose.pcd) and has some red border on the left and top and the image is padded with white to fill 768x512. I see a red rose and not green.

convert rose: rose.pcd

identify rose.pcd
rose.pcd PCD 768x512 768x512+0+0 8-bit YCC 788KB 0.010u 0:00.009

Note from the http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php, it says:

PCD RW Photo CD The maximum resolution written is 768x512 pixels since larger images require huffman compression (which is not supported).


Also I do not see any defines at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... php#define whereby one can set the output resolution. So perhaps it is fixed at 768x512.
