ah, I did get this to work: convert largeimage.tiff ( maskedimage.tiff -distort Perspective "{16_numbers}" ) -compose over -composite out.tiff my code: "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.0.5-Q16\magick.exe" "C:\Temp\Orig.JPG" ( "C:\Temp\Clipped.png" -distort Affi...

...You should be laughing, with that much memory.

With much power comes great responsibility....
I do laugh every time I say "gigglebyte", can hardly type this right now...gigglebyte gigglebyte gigglebyte

I finally got this to paste the two images together at proper coordinates: "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.0.5-Q16\magick.exe" "C:\Temp\Orig.JPG" ( "C:\Temp\Clipped.png" -distort Affine "0,0 200,200 0,1440 400,800" ) -background none -compose over -layers merg...

great replies all! I will try today. I have 64 gigglebytes of memory and decent xeon CPU for my CAD laptop. Funny because I bet gamers laugh at the term "CAD laptop" these days. Autodesk makes an image editing tool called Raster Design that runs on autocad. It will not handle the large ima...

So I updated to the latest, and have tried a few things that have me to the last step. Once I get the individual steps down, I think using parens will get to one statement. I am still concerned about speed on all this, as I am pasting images 5000x5000 pixels into 30,000x40,000 pixel image. I'm ok if...

Oh, sorry I am on windows 10 using IM 6.6.8. I could use the latest if it helped. I am writing in C# using interop to do code like this: ImageMagickObject.MagickImage img = new ImageMagickObject.MagickImage(); object[] args2 = args.ToArray(); object ret1 = img.Convert(args2); All I am doing is build...

I believe this can be done in three steps by: 1) make black and white mask image using stencil and coordinate list of closed "clipping" shape. 2) turn unwanted pixels to transparent using mask 3) Paste "mask clipped" image into another at desired location and angle using distort ...

I am on win 7 64 bit, with ghostscript 9.0 installed . this works fine: "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.6.8-Q16\convert.exe" "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.6.8-Q16\images\logo.jpg" "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.6.8-Q16\images\logo.pdf" doing reverse fails: "C:\P...

I want to quantize an image to 256 colors to get an 8 bit palleted image. I know prefixing the output filename with PNG8: will do it, but what is that longhand? I tried this with no luck, gives a 24 bit fill color image: orig.png -dither FloydSteinberg -colors 256 -type Palette new8bitindexed.png Th...

I am seeing identical perforamce times so far.
I tried identify, and convert on large images.
I just use my stopwatch, but the numbers are the same to about a tenth of a second (the margin of error for my fingers...)

I have the same question, so will run some tests to see which is faster.

There seems to be a lack of examples for calling the imagemagickobject library from c#. So hopefully this will help others. I am using VS 2008 on windows 7 64 bit. I had the 32 bit of IM installed, and the dll referenced, but was getting the error where it could not make the object at runtime. Seems...

I have the latest IM ImageMagick-6.6.5-Q8, running on win 7 64 bit. I tried the -alpha off -type palette, with same end result - a non paletted 24 bit RGB image. -verbose gives: Image: C:\+Storage\Programming\DotNet\RightClickToolsCS\GIMP Scripts\dogmatte.png Format: PNG (Portable Network Graphics) ...

I thought it better to make this a new post from the last one on how to recognize 8 bit palletted image. So in my tests, I ran across an image that has an alpha channel. I want to get rid of that channel, and have the final image still be 8 bit indexed. Everything i try ends me up with a non-indexed...

I did more searching, and found some web pages mentioning how to detect a mask in a tiff. The mask would be listed as <something>Matte I reopened my test image in corel PP that was indexed, and noticed it had a selection border around it. I flattened it and then got the pseudoclass result from IM. I...
