Hi,

suppose I have a number of images that need to be displayed side by
side in a nice layout.  The images are of different sizes and have
different aspect ratios.

To fit the images into the layout, I can scale the images either by
height or width or by percantage, and they will look messy in the
layout because I need to keep their aspect ratio when scaling them.

So what I need to do is put a frame around each image just as needed
when scaling it so that I will end up with all the images having the
same size while maintaining their aspect ratio.

I guess 'convert' (from imagemagick) or 'ffmpeg' can do this, yet I
couldn't find out how.


(In this particular case, I would set a default size to scale all
images to rather than doing something more complicated like examine
all images in advance to compute a good size to use from the largest
or smallest one or from their average dimensions.)


Any ideas how to do this?

Look here:

You must add a resize paremeter as this example is only for placing an
image inside a larger canvas. :-)

You can easily find more examples in the Internet.

Give this a spin, or modify accordingly to suit your needs:

============================================
#!/bin/bash
for i in *.JPG; do
   name=${i%.JPG}
   convert -resize 900x675 ${i} ${name}_s.jpg
done
============================================

This doesn't add a frame to keep the aspect ratio, or does it?
