What about the direct conversion differs from that of first converting to JPEG? I know that jpg uses lossy compression but jpg was only an example. Here you have the result when you first convert the svg to gif and then to ppm: http://fkurth.de/uwest/LyX/svg2gif2ppm.ppm What about the direct conver...

You are correct. Unix automagically updates the configure information but a manual edit is required under Windows. Thanks for alerting us to this problem. With the new IM 6.2.7-2 I got now a correct output for identify -list configure I also get now a nice looking png also without the -depth 300 op...

[quote="magick"]If ImageMagick reports 6.2.4 that is the version you are using. You may have two versions of ImageMagick installed and are using the wrong one. When we convert your SVG with ImageMagick 6.2.7-1 we get the same results as you posted with Inkscape.[/quote] Then you packed a w...

You can see that Imagemagick has also a problem with the image size when I use the -density option

Does your version of ImageMagick include Freetype support? Type idenitfy -list configure to determine if its included. We're using ImageMagick 6.2.7-1. I'm also using 6.2.7-1 but identify tells me that I have 6.2.4: Name Value ------------------------------------------------------------------------...

[quote="magick"]Try this command: [list]convert -density 300 test.svg test.png[/list][/quote]

This leads to a horrible output. When I try this with the test.svg I get huge letters displayed all over the place above the diagram. A bug I guess.

[quote="magick"]ImageMagick rasterizes vector images.ImageMagick.[/quote] Hello magick, thanks for the info. I could live with a raster image when it is in a viewable state. Have a look at the resulting png I postesd and compare it to the png that is produced when you convert the test.svg ...

When I convert a svg-image to a pdf-image with the command convert test.svg test.pdf I get a bitmap image instead of a vector image. This destroys the advantage of svg's. The resulting bitmap looks btw. very poor: Test svg: http://fkurth.de/uwest/LyX/test.svg Resulting pdf: http://fkurth.de/uwest/Ly...

[quote="magick"]Can you post a URL to your image so we can download it?[/quote] Here it is: http://fkurth.de/uwest/LyX/Tachyonen.pdf and the resulting ppm: http://fkurth.de/uwest/LyX/Tachyonen.ppm With this pdf test image you can also test the two other related bugs I reported: http://redu...

The following fonts were not embedded: ArialMT **** This file had errors that were repaired or ignored. **** The fil...

I'm using imagemagick 6.2.6-4. When I want to convert a pdf to a cropped pdf using this code: convert -define pdf:use-cropbox=true pdf:Tachyonen.pdf pdf:Tachyonen-2.pdf I get a postscript delegation error: convert: Postscript delegate failed `C:\DOCUME~1\usti\LOCALS~1\Temp\magick-tj1elrcl'.

I would attach the a pdf as testfile but don't know how.

I'm using Imagemagick 6.2.6-4 and wanted to test out the new option "-define pdf:use-cropbox=true" Attached a pdf-file that has: /MediaBox[0 0 595 842] /CropBox[62.362183 85.039368 566.653564 737.118103] When I use the following command convert -define pdf:use-cropbox=true pdf:Tachyonen.pd...
