Package: imagemagick
Version: 6:6.2.4.5-0.7
Severity: normal
The combination of -page and -rotate is broken -- or if not broken,
then at least extremely unintuitive!
I used to rotate and scale my photos to ~ A6 with
convert -page 392x283 -rotate 90 pxxx.jpg ps2:x.ps
But now that page size is mangled: head x.ps => [..]
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 204 283
Note that the page size is 204 x 283, _not_ 392 x 283.
If I want to get size 392x283, I have to multiply both numbers by
(392/283): after
convert -page 543x392 -rotate 90 pxxx.jpg ps2:x.ps
The page size is 392x283.
In the previous version I did get the page size I requested.
(The reason for using -page rather than -geometry is so that
convert doesn't mangle the JPEG image -- it is copied verbatim
into the postscript file. With -geometry it does seem to sample the
image at 72 points/inch)

Package: imagemagick
Version: 7:6.3.7.9.dfsg1-3
Works well the current sid (unstable) version. Of course, the image keep the
ratio.
$ jhead image.jpg | grep Resolution
Resolution : 2816 x 2112
The ratio here is 4:3.
$ convert -page 392x283 -rotate 90 image.jpg ps2:image.ps
$ head image.ps | grep BoundingBox
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 212 283
%%HiResBoundingBox: 0 0 212 283
Which is ~3:4. The resolution 392x283 is not 3:4 and 'convert' fits it to the
smaller size possible without loose the ratio. Note that you can get a better
result with:
$ convert -page 283x392 -rotate 90 image.jpg ps2:image.ps ; head image.ps |
grep BoundingBox
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 283 377
%%HiResBoundingBox: 0 0 283 377
Please, feel free to reopen this bug if you notice that I'm wrong or I
misunderstood you.
