Hi, I am trying to set up XAMPP on Windows 10 to work with FFMPEG and ImageMagick to create video thumbnails. I am working with PHP7 and cannot seem to find anything current that explains how to set this up. Everything I am finding online does not seem to have what is necessary to set this up. Can a...

When I use it with the "magick" command instead of "convert" it works. I would like to know what is going on here. However it does do EXACTLY what I was trying to do. Thank you @fmw42 and @GeeMack

I am not getting any of the examples to work. It is making ask the question if I am on Windows and run the "convert" command could I be not in ImageMagicks context. I keep getting errors like Invalid Parameter - -bordercolor whine I use the command like this convert 'D:\161122 TempCodePic\...

I have an ImageMagick command I use like so. magick -density 72 "C:\ExamplePDF\MyPDF.pdf"[0] -crop %[w]x%[fx:w/16*9]+0+0 +repage -resize 765x430 "C:\ExampleJPG\MyJPG.jpg" I am wondering if it is possible to get a stroke around my jpeg output like so (pic). If so could someone sho...

Yes... no file so I need second command after! I get it. thank you. The two commands will be fine, that is exactly what I am looking for. Thanks

version: ImageMagick-7.0.3-Q16 I just need the jpg file name and the file size in a text file. I don't need any conversion of the jpg output to text. I want this in same directory that my jpg is output to. I want it generated with the same command that creates the jpg output. That is why I thought ...

Thanks

OK I see the example is only for the compare command. The title for the post attracted me because I need the command line output in a text file. How can this be accomplished? All I really need is a file-size and name report output in a text file. Thanks

Where do you find the output results.txt file after running command? The command is working. I get my jpg output, but I don't have any results file afterwards. My command looks like this magick -density 300 "C:\CTestAC1\Pointer.pdf"[0] -crop %[w]x%[fx:w*0.5625]+0+0 "C:\CTestAC1\Pointe...

This really is helpful. Thank You!

I'm thinking there must be an option to leave off the last part with the output directory and tell ImageMagick just to create the jpeg in the original file's directory. If so how is this done? Thanks

Wow thank you again @snibgo and @GeeMack super helpful. I have been able to do EXACTLY what I wanted to do. The other great part is your syntax examples are helping understand what everything is in the ImageMagick guides.

Because I want to sometimes print the image (on 8.5 x 11) paper, I want to keep the whole page width in view. so I think that is the first option. I want to scale the page down evenly. Evenly to 8.5 width but still see everything. Actually, I may have confused things by saying, "after capture.&...

The code sample @GeeMack provided is really cool because it captures a 16:9 ratio no matter what the size of the pdf is. I now see that if my pdf is wider than 8.5 inches I want to scale it down. How could I make the output of the image scale to an 8.5 inch width but stay 16:9 after capture? Thanks

Thanks guys really great and considerate. I hope I can make good contributions to this great forum once I learn more about ImageMagick. @Bonzo Thank you, what is good is that PHP is a language I am very proficient with. @snibgo I am checking out it looks really cool. Your advice is super helpful. @f...
