I have a bunch of continuous BMP files and a background picture. I used JMagick to
append each BMP file to the background to generate an intermediate frame. Then I
got all the frames and made a GIF animation with the help of JMagick.

Since each frame of the animation has the background picture, the size of generated GIF
file is too large. How can I perform some optimization on the animation to reduce the file
size?

Thanks for your help

Don't know much about JMagick, but see

I've been reading that document these days.
Some operation can be performed with the command line tool, but I don't know how to
do the same thing using JMagick.

As far as I know, JMagick is a different tool to ImageMagick. This is an ImageMagick forum. For help on JMagick, try a JMagick forum.
