| Hi there
| 
| I use imagemagick to convert PDF or PS files into JPGs with the following
| command: 
| "Convert -strip -scene 1 -quality '90%' -density '65%' Filepath
| Folderpath/Image%03d.jpg"
| 
| Is there any parameter I can pass convert to tell it to always make the
| images portrait and never landscape? Even if the PDF doc contains landscape
| images?
| 
| Many thanks

Yes there is. Use   -rotate '-90>'

The '<' flag to rotate means to only rotate if it is wider than it is
tall.  The -90 means rotate anti-clockwaise, use 90 for clockwise.

NOTE: this angle of rotate may seem inverted in the mathematical sense,
until you realise that the y-axis of images is also negated. That is the
Y-axis goes from 0 at the top and positive downward. Thus rotation
angles are inverted.

I have added the above two items to the IM examples on rotation...

You may also like to look at rectangular (simple) rotates...
