Hello,

I am new to Imagemagick and I tried to convert a 1600x2500 pixel image to 412x547 which differs in the aspect ratio.

After using
convert %1.jpg -resize 412x547 %1_tmp.png

the result has the 342x547. How to get the right resoloution?

You have a choice. You can squish the image to get exactly what you want, but the image will be distorted. You can pad it to the right aspect or you can crop it to the right aspect. See the ! symbol for squishing it to preserve the aspect at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... p#geometry.

Also see crop and pad at:
