If you are doing shell commands to convert then Imagemagick must be installed on the machine that your application is installed on as well. Though there is nothing stopping you from distributing Imagemagick with your application, and installing it for the end user.

Subject: [magick-users] RE: Resize

See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php#resize

To resize to some specific dimension, such as 600x300, use

convert rose.jpg -resize 600x300\! rose1.jpg


Also from your message about getting 50x50 from a 1280x960 image,
perhaps your image size is not what you think. Also be sure you do
not have a space between 50 and %, ie, it should be 50% and not 50 %.

JPG format is lossy and not a good format for trying to get exact
file sizes in bytes as a result. You can control (but not specify
exactly) the resulting file size by using the -quality option before
the output.  See

Hi,

Thanks

We are trying to reduce a .jpg file to 50% of its original size
We have a rose.jpg which is 1280 * 960

If we use
Convert rose.jpg -resize 50% rose1.jpg.

It reduces the dimension to 50 * 50, is there a way to reduce this this
600 * 300....I mean can it be possible reduce exactly by some %.
