Hi All,
I found that you can resize a jpg file to a maximum file size by:
Code: Select all
convert image -define jpeg:extent=512kb newimage.jpg
Is there also such a function for animated gifs?

Okay, after some research (and looked at Fred's scripts) i see it can only be done with trial and error.

JPEG files have a trade-off between image quality and file size. For animation, some formats (such as MPG) also have this trade-off. GIF does not.
