Hi,
I wish to decode a jbig2 image in a pdf.
I see that ImageMagick understands CompressionMethod JBIG2, but not the format.

is there an alternate format I should use for this scenario?

Kind Regards
Martin

I'm trying to do this same thing. identify says "identify: no decode delegate for this image format `JBG2' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/509."

Does
list jbig for delegates? Is there a difference between jbig and jbig2?

I suppose there is, since documentation shows some differences. For jbig2, docs are at https://www.leadtools.com/help/leadtool ... atjb2.html.

I suspect IM has implemented jbig, but not jbig2.

To read or write JBIG2 files, you must have the JBIG2 delegate library installed. If you are trying to read a PDF with JBIG2 image imbedded, then ImageMagick uses Ghostscript to read PDF files. Try converting the PDF directly with Ghostscript. If it does not work, then you will have to ask on a Ghostcript forum or the Ghostscript development team. If it does work and you cannot get IM to work, then it is either an issue with having the jbig2 delegate or you may have to configure the delegates.xml file differently for PS/PDF files.
