Can ImageMagick read paths from 8BIM 1025?

Post by smileychez »

Hello,

Using convert xxx -clip IM will clip along a path from the 8BIM 2000 range. I am working with an image base of 11000 images 95% of which have their clipping path stored in 8BIM 1025. Can IM be told to clip along this path?

Version: ImageMagick 6.6.9-7 2012-04-30 Q16 on Ubuntu 12.04

Thanks,

Chez

It is also talked about in Clip Masks of IM examples...

http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/masking/#clip_mask

NOTE: +clip_path negates the path, it does not remove the resulting clip mask. To later turn off the clip_path use +clip_mask instead.

You can also extract the SVG Draw Path that clip-path uses from the verbose identify of the image.
