Re: -define png:size={size}?

No. It is something that can be passed to the JPEG library. The PNG library has no such option available.

But remember it just removes pixel rows and columns from the final result. It is not really a good method of re-sizing an image.

Re: +distort Plane2Cylinder center_x,y usage

You can you either spaces, tabs, newlines or commas. in the arguments. But it must be given as a single argument which for whitespace means quotes around the argument.\ Basically quoting makes more sense as the spacing helps distinguish the x,y argument from the rest, but IM itself does not care.

Re: How to remove MS Word Spellcheck wavy lines

Hmmm ... The kernel generated is for a convolution, not a dilatation. I am also not sure if it is inverted. After making the conversions, and reformatting so as to make it more 'human readable' the resulting kernel did not look much like a wavy line, but more like a hash pattern! 24x8: 1 1 1 1 - - -...

Re: How to remove MS Word Spellcheck wavy lines

Nice use of morphology... Exactly what it is meant for ;-) Use Erode to locate image parts that match the given kernel set a conditional dilation mask, and dilate the result back to the matching lines remove the found lines. It might be improved by replacing the kernel with a DIY kernel of the 'wavy...

Re: Why is the Default Gravity Not The Same As Northwest?

Annotate was created so as to avoid the need for 'doubled quoting', when using Draw. See Text to Image Handling, Annotate http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/text/#annotate Without gravity, the text position is the most logical method. Position the 'cursour' or 'caret' of the text before rendering it. ...

Re: How to batch resize to a specific aspect ratio by adding white borders

LOok at the examples in Thumbnails, Padding Images http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/thumbnails/#pad However if you are not after a specific size just a specific ratio. That can be trickier. See 'Squaring an image' whcih is very simular to what you are after. http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/thumbnai...

For the reasons why Distort in a non-rotation 'NO-OP' (which is what you did) produces a change see..

Re: Adding image to pdf

First PDF is a vector image format, but ImageMagick is a raster image processor. If IM reads a PDF it will render it into a raster (pixel array) at a specific resolution/density. That is probably not what you want. See the warning... A word about Vector Image formats http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage...

Did you want to overlay of top of the image, or append to the side of the image?

Re: cropping noisy background/border

Also see... trimming noisy image
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/crop/#trim_noisy

This blurs the image to filter out the noise, trims it with an appropriate fuzz, then applies that trim results to the unblurred image with some adjustments.
