Compress images on Linux (ubuntu)
Image resizing/compression for linux
ImageMagick isn’t included in the default installations of Ubuntu and many other Linux distributions. To install it on Ubuntu, use the following command:
sudo apt-get install imagemagick
-------------------------------------------------------------
Converting Between Formats
convert a.png b.jpg
You can also specify a compression level for JPEG images:
convert a.png -quality 95 b.jpg
---------------------------------------------------------------
Resizing Images
The convert command can also quickly resize an image.
Here you can asks ImageMagick to resize an image to 100 pixels in width and 50 pixels in height:
convert a.jpg -resize 100×50 b.jpg
------------------------------------------------------------
Reduce size of all images with same name (No name change after reducing)
for fileName in *.jpg; do convert $fileName -quality 50 $fileName; done
-------------------------------------------------------------
Rotating an Image
ImageMagick can quickly rotate an image. The following command takes an image named howtogeek.jpg, rotates it by 90 degrees and saves the rotated image as howtogeek-rotated.jpg:
convert a.jpg -rotate 90 b.jpg
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
