A good explanation of Hough lines is at http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-se ... =4&t=25476

JPEG compression is lossy, which means it changes pixels. I suggest never using JPEG for any intermediate results.

Please, always provide your IM version and platform when asking questions, since syntax may differ. Also provide your exact command line and if possible your images.
