Re: Tool to decrease a size of jpg file

2003-12-21 Thread Rafael Kitover 
Sorry for failing to RTFM, but apparently there is an ImageMagick
package in Cygwin already:

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=ImageMagick/ImageMagick-
5.5.7-1grep=image

So you don't need to compile anything.

Once you have ImageMagick installed, to reduce the size of a jpg file, a
good trick is:

convert -quality 64 foo.jpg foo.jpg

see man convert for other options, to shrink dimensions use -resize.

'gzip'. ;-)

Seriously, though, you might find something in the libjpeg package or the
newly-proposed GraphicsMagick package[*].

You should be able to compile imagemagick without much problem, get the
unix source from:

http://www.imagemagick.org/www/archives.html?

You could also just install the windows binaries and put them in your
Cygwin PATH.
