Use the special output format clip: that is

Code: Select all

   convert ........... clip:

Am I right in assuming that this no longer works? That the meaning of clip: has changed since the above was written, 4 years ago?

I checked the delegates.xml file, it has the delegate information and the query to use. I can't see in the query where it is adding in the random _dirname subdirectory. If you gave an exact quote of the relevant lines from your delegates.xml file, somebody could really help to debug it. Everything ...

Thanks, Dirk!

I know nothing about running OpenOffice non-interactively, ie "--headless". I assume you have installed this. [....] This should be working an all platforms, for OpenOffice as well as for LibreOffice. (I think that the syntax of LibreOffice may have evolved a bit since the fork...) The he...

The link I posted earlier: https://www.dropbox.com/s/97w3q16wdjeypmi/wizard-test.jpg?dl=0. Does this image work for you? You mean "Does it work with LaTeX for you"? Yes, it does! So for any visitor from the future reading this thread, here are the differences between the two files in ques...

Did you try the test file that I gave you? I don't know which testfile you mean? Is it this: kp@mbp:> convert http://www.imagemagick.org/image/wizard.png wizard-from-website-converted.jpg kp@mbp:> identify http://www.imagemagick.org/image/wizard.png wizard-from-website-converted.jpg http://www.imag...

If you looked at my previous post, you will see where I got wizard.jpg. Ah, sorry, hadn't read it when I posted my answer. I started to write up my answer about 1 day before I posted it. But then I got distracted by other business and couldn't complete it. So for more than a day I kept coming back ...

identify -verbose says Image: wizard.jpg Format: JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group JFIF format) Mime type: image/jpeg Class: DirectClass Geometry: 265x352+0+0 Resolution: 118x118 Print size: 2.24576x2.98305 Units: PixelsPerCentimeter Ummm... I'm not sure how this 'wizard.jpg' file now entered ...

I use MacPorts also and have jpeg @9a_1 (active) Might the difference be that you have a universal version? No idea about that at all. If you create a wizard JPEG with your IM and the non-universal JPEG version, what is the respective output for it when you run the `identify -verbose ... | grep Res...

Did you change your version of libjpeg? Is it the most current. I'm not sure I understand your question whether I changed my version of libjpeg... This system is OS X Mavericks with MacPorts extra packages. Here are all the MacPort packages with 'JPEG' in their names: $ port installed *jpeg* The fo...

I noticed yesterday, that I cannot use JPEGs which are produced by my version of ImageMagick (6.9.0-0 Q16 x86_64 2014-12-06 on OS X from MacPorts). It appears to me that the reason for this is that ImageMagick changed how it writes some metadata about resolution into the JPEG files. I did this to ve...

Despite the much lower resolution, the resulting file is actually a little bit larger (and 16-bit): output.pdf PDF 764x1266 764x1266+0+0 16-bit Bilevel DirectClass 122KB 0.010u 0:00.010 BTW, you should never use 'identify' if you want to get some reliable information about a PDF input file. Because...

Could you please post (a link to) the sample TIFF files you are using?

I don't know much about compression within PDF files. JBIG2 is a compression scheme for bi-level images only. Image data within a PDF can be compressed with JBIG2. JBIG2, using "pattern matching & replacement" algorithms, however poses the danger of swapping the glyphs of letters and ...

Oh, well... I'll not download your PDFs then
