Convert jpg to png.
```bash
convert image.jpg image.png
```
```bash
convert image.jpg -quality 50 image.jpg
```
'Quality' must be from 1 to 100.
```bash
convert -resize 50% image.jpg image2.jpg
```
Resizing only changes jpegs. Change a png with:
```bash
convert input.png png8:out.png
```
# Invert Colours
```bash
convert input.jpg output.jpg -negate
```
# Make Images Smaller
```bash
convert image.jpg -resize 25% output.jpg
```
# Trim images to border
This is generally used for transparrent images.
```bash
convert -trim image.png output.png
```
Make the white of an image transparrent.
```bash
convert -transparent white -fuzz 10% input.png output.png
```
The 'fuzz' option tells the computer that 'close to white' is fine. You might want to use 20% or higher fuzz.
## Dropshadow
```bash
`convert <input file> \( +clone -background black -shadow 50x8+0+5 \) +swap -background none -layers merge +repage <output file>`
```
# Convert every jpg in directory to png
```bash
mogrify -format png *.jpg
```
# Printing Words
# Mass convert
This script converts all jpg files in a directory to svg.
```
for i in *jpg
do convert "$i" $(ls "$i" | sed s#jpg\$#svg#)
done
```
# SVG
The above script has crappy results.
It's better to use potrace.
```
$convert -flatten input.jpg output.ppm
$potrace -s output.ppm -o svgout.svg
```
