Hi Dominik, on debian it's in the package 'imagemagick', don't know the footprint of that package though. But it has a lot of dependencies (with X11) etc etc. man convert: NAME convert - convert between image formats as well as resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more. SYNOPSIS convert input-file [options] output-file OVERVIEW The convert program is a member of the ImageMagick(1) suite of tools. Use it to convert between image formats as well as resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more. For more information about the convert command, point your browser to file:///usr/share/doc/ImageMagick-6.3.7/www/convert.html or http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php. ...
