cristy3ed852e2009-09-05 21:47:34 +0000198<div class="doc-section">
199
200<p>ImageMagick uses an ASCII string known as <em>magick</em> (e.g. <kbd>GIF</kbd>) to identify file formats, algorithms acting as formats, built-in patterns, and embedded profile types.</p>
201
202<p>Support for some of the formats are delegated to libraries or external programs. The Installation Guide describes where to find these distributions and any special configuration options required.</p>
203
204<p>To get a complete listing of which image formats are supported on your system, type</p>
205
206<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick&gt; </span><span class='crtin'>identify -list format</span></p>
207<p>On some platforms, ImageMagick automagically processes these extensions: .gz for Zip compression, .Z for Unix compression, .bz2 for block compression, and .pgp for PGP encryption. For example, a PNM image called image.pnm.gz is automagically uncompressed.</p>

To specify a single-precision floating-point format, use <kbd>-define quantum:format=floating-point</kbd>. Set the depth to 64 for a double-precision floating-point format. Use <kbd>-define quantum:polarity=min-is-black</kbd> or <kbd>-define quantum:polarity=min-is-white</kbd> toggle the photometric interpretation for a bilevel image. Specify the extra samples as associated or unassociated alpha with, for example, <kbd>-define tiff:alpha=unassociated</kbd>. Set the fill order with <kbd>-define tiff:fill-order=msb|lsb</kbd>. Set the TIFF endianess with <kbd>-define tiff:endian=msb|lsb</kbd>. You can choose to read the EXIF profile with this option: <kbd>-define tiff:exif=true</kbd>.
