Excellent idea, the explanation makes sense to me. Although it is annoying when software tries to be "intelligent" on my behalf, just like Excel / Word tends to do. I will make some experiments with your idea there. Do you know how to modify the individual items of the Color array ? Exampl...

Referring to previous topic on this matter I have come a bit further. Thanks to the help of [snibgo]. I am almost there, but would like to have the final step. What I have so far is the conversion from "Raw" to "header" version of BMP. I now only need to find out how to insert th...

The gray: image format did not make any difference.. The file being opened is exactly 35700 bytes, equal to 300 x 118. It's a headerless BMP file in 8 bit format, one byte = 1 colour. My attempts so far: c:\>convert -size 300x118 -depth 8 rgb:qwerty.raw q3.bmp convert: Unexpected end-of-file (qwerty...

I have some raw BMPs I would like to have converted to BMPs with header. I know the size of each data, and I know that each image contains 256 different colors Example file is here: http://ge.tt/8DniNXb/v/0 Both original (.raw) and converted using paintShopPro. To convert I have selected "greys...

This did the trick. The -colors 256 is from the section on BMP linked to here.

Thanks for all help

I need to create a 1bpp BMP image, plain and simple. My source for test is a PNG as exported by InkScape. I think I tried every single combination of -type bilevel, -depth 2 etc etc - but always I get returned a 24 bpp image. I have put sample files here: http://ge.tt/5Ob8ZOK/v/0 What I need is to g...

Post a link to your pdf file so others can test and verify. If you have a correct result, the post that also. I have uploaded two PDF examples each 4 pages, and converted documents (8 x BMP) APPROX like they need to be. BMPs are 3182 x 4687 px 1 BPP, ideally I would like 4800 wide but this is not e...

try just convert -density 200 d:\hindi1.pdf -type Bilevel d:\hindi1.bmp Tried, but not desired result or convert -density 200 d:\hindi1.pdf -colorspace gray -type Bilevel d:\hindi1.bmp Will try later. Thanks for your suggestion! meanwhile I have found http://www.digitzone.com/pdftobmp.html which IS...

I partly found the answer to the issue myself.. c:\IM>convert -type Grayscale -verbose -density 200 d:\hindi1.pdf d:\hindi1.PNG c:\IM>convert -type Bilevel d:\hindi1.png d:\hindi1.bmp But how do I write this as ONE convert line ? I do not need the PNG file, it may well be in memory only. I tried to ...

I am stumbling a bit on a project. I have a process that works, but I can't find out how to make it efficient. Job : I have a PDF file with writing in Hindi. I need output to be a 1 bit (bilevel) BMP file, preferably at a given size. So far I have the following: C:\IM>convert -verbose -type bilevel ...

do anyone know if it is possible to convert a datamatrix (or similar) to a binary string ? The following can be given: Source is a 1 bit BMP image (B/W), square, f.ex 16x16 pixel, containing only a datamatrix barcode. Each dot in the matrix is 1 pixel in size. This is of course not printable, but to...

The new "pango:" coder supports right to left text handling -- automatically. This is very interesting ! Is there any information available (examples, how-tos, tutorials) anywhere about using pango with Perl + Windows ? Or other scripting languages under Windows ? Unfortunately, for other...

This is an old topic, but could not find anyone that discussed it since. My need is to take a text file and line-by-line create a graphic 300px high with that line. ImageMagick is perfect for the job, except it still does not handle unicode correct. I have ImageMagick 6.7.6-5 4.4.2012 Input file tri...
