Debian Imaging Project
Summary
Image script
Command line image processing in Debian

Debian contains a lot of tools to process images as batches using the command line. Here you can have an overview.

Description

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Imaging to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Imaging mailing list

Автокорегувач фотографій — крихітний інструмент маніпуляції зі зображеннями для командного рядка маніпуляцій інструмент, призначений для автоматичної корекції фотографій. Він намагається зробити фотографію кращою. Програма робить це шляхом аналізу вхідного зображення, а потім встановлює найбільш оптимальну контрастність, ґамму, колірний баланс та насиченість для нього.

ImageMagick is a software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (over 100) including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves. All manipulations can be achieved through shell commands as well as through an X11 graphical interface (display).

This package include links to channel depth specific binaries and manual pages.

This is a dummy package. You can safely purge or remove it.

pngquant is a command-line conversion utility to quantize and dither truecolor PNG images, especially those with a full alpha channel, down to 8-bit (or smaller) RGBA-palette PNGs. Such images are usually two to four times smaller than the full 32-bit versions, and partial transparency is preserved quite nicely. This makes pngquant especially useful both for Web sites and for PlayStation 2 development, where one of the texture formats is RGBA-palette-based (though not PNG-compressed). This is the same technique used for many of the images on the Miscellaneous Transparent PNGs page (http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngs-img.html), and the results are often indistinguishable from the original, truecolor PNG images.

Optimizers (like pngcrush and optipng) optimize the compression, usually losslessly, while pngquant quantizes colors down to 256 (or fewer) distinct RGBA combinations, which is lossy.

GraphicsMagick надає набір застосунків командного рядка для роботи з файлами зображень. Це відгалуження проекту ImageMagick, і, тому, пропонує схожий набір можливостей, але робить більший акцент на стабільності.

Інструменти підтримують великий набір форматів зображень — від широко використовуваних jpeg, tiff, bmp чи xpm до спеціалізованих форматів, таких як fits чи форматів зображень, які можна знайти на деяких Photo CD. Ці інструменти можуть перетворювати файли у різні формати, об’єднувати декілька зображень в одне, додавати анотації й спотворювати їх, створювати мініатюри попереднього перегляду чи змінювати кольорову карту. Усі можливості доступні з командного рядка, але, пакунок, також, містить програму для перегляду зображень, яка дозволяє інтерактивно вносити зміни.

Зауважте, що, на відміну від ImageMagick, інструменти GraphicsMagick доступні через один єдиний виконуваний файл, названий „gm“. Тому GraphicsMagick й ImageMagick можуть використовуватися паралельно. Встановіть пакунок „graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat“ щоб отримати набір з декількох виконуваних файлів, які сумісні з інтерфейсом ImageMagick.
