Hi,
I want to convert .SVG image to .TIF.
With the following code the result TIF file looks like a MVG file
Could somebody tell me what did I wrong?
Code: Select all
MagickBooleanType status;
MagickWand* magick_wand;
MagickWandGenesis ();
magick_wand = NewMagickWand ();
status = MagickReadImage (magick_wand, fullSvgPath);
if (status != MagickFalse) {
MagickResizeImage (magick_wand, width * 2, height * 2, UndefinedFilter, 1.0);
MagickSetImageFormat (magick_wand, "TIFF");
MagickSetImageCompression (magick_wand, Group4Compression);
MagickSetImageCompressionQuality (magick_wand, 0);
MagickStripImage (magick_wand);
status = MagickWriteImage (magick_wand, fullTifPath); // fullTifPath ends with ".tif"
if (status == MagickFalse) {
ThrowMagickWandException (magick_wand);
}
} else {
ThrowMagickWandException (magick_wand);
}
magick_wand = DestroyMagickWand (magick_wand);
MagickWandTerminus ();
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Tibor

Are you using the latest version of ImageMagick?

The latest version is 6.9.0.5. You need to find the exact minor version.
convert -version
should tell you exactly what version you are using.

Code: Select all
Version: ImageMagick 6.9.0-0 Q16 x86_64
If I try to make .BMP file from the .SVG, then it's created successfully.
It only works wrong with .TIF file format

What delegated do you have installed? Does it contain libtif? To see what is installed,
convert -version
and it will tell you about your delegates. If it is there, perhaps it is too old and needs to be upgraded.

Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2014 ImageMagick Studio LLC
Features: DPC Modules
Delegates (built-in): bzlib djvu fftw fontconfig freetype gslib jbig jng jp2 jpeg lcms ltdl lzma openexr png ps tiff webp x xml zlib
I can't find "libtif" in the delegates, but "tiff" is there.
UPDATE:
I can successfully convert my .SVG image to .TIF in command line with "convert _.svg _.tif" command.
It only can't work with MagickWand

That is correct. So you do have libtif otherwise, tiff would not show there.
Sorry I cannot help with the API issue.

In cases like this, it is best to provide a complete but minimal program with a source image that shows the problem.
With IM 6.9.0-0 I built a program that contains your code, and it works for an SVG file, making a proper TIFF file.
