Hi there I've written a script which converts around 20000 TIFF images to PNG images everyday. The PIL module takes to long and I'm therefore using Imagemagick to perform the conversion. My problem is I need to compress the tiff as much as possible. The best I can do is get a 60kb TIFF Image to around a 100kb PNG image. I can get it down an extra kb or 2 by running it through PNGCrush but this takes way too long. The best command I can come up with is
convert img.tif -monochrome +matte -depth 8 -quality 100 img.png -rw-r--r-- 1 jeffreyva jeffreyva 59328 2007-08-02 12:09 img.tif [EMAIL PROTECTED]:$ time convert img.tif -monochrome +matte -depth 8 -quality 100 img.png real 0m7.041s user 0m6.664s sys 0m0.160s -rw-r--r-- 1 jeffreyva jeffreyva 99340 2007-08-02 12:10 img.png Has anyone worked with any utilities or has been successful in converting a TIFF image to a PNG which is almost the same size as the original TIFF? Look forward to hearing from anyone. Thanks Jeffrey van Aswegen
