Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Hello there! I am developing an application which uses the command 'convert' so as to convert all the images specified by the user to a desired format.

However, I don't know what formats are available from convertion from -> to.

How can I see them?

Thanks a lot!

See here for all possible formats but they may need extra delegtes : http://www.imagemagick.org/script/forma ... j7h55ioit6

Run this to find what are supported on your system: identify -list format
r = read w= write

Thanks !

I have installed imagemagick through the repositories of Ubuntu. If the users have installed the same imagemagick version through the same repositories, we will have the same r/w capabilities as for image files. Am I right?

Your reasoning makes sense

Nice, thanks a lot for helping me out!

You also must have installed the same set of "delegates" for any formats that require delegate support. Unfortunately, "-list format" does not tell you whether a delegate is used or not; however, you can type "convert -list delegate" to find out which formats require use of a delegate.
