Greg:
Unfortunatly, different versions of identify output their data in
different formats. Can you post the output from:
identify -ping 'some graphics file'
The code that searches the output for the image size may be wrong for
the version if identify you have.
If you are brave you can try changing two lines in Imageparser.py at
about line 200 as follows:
change: command = "identify -ping " + tmpfile
to: command = "identify -ping -format \"%wx%h\" " + tmpfile
if self._verbose > 1:
print "Running: ", command
pipe = os.popen(command)
info = pipe.read()
pipe.close()
change: match = re.search(r"\s(\d+)x(\d+)\D", info) (your line may differ)
to: match = re.search(r"(\d+)x(\d+)", info)
This will cause identify to only output widthXheight and python to
search for it. You will then need to reinstall the python scripts. On unix
platforr\ms this is 'make install' in the directory ImageParser.py lives
in. I don't know how it is done on windows. (Should be similar.)
