228 <dd>Associate an image format with the specified coder module.
229
230 <p>ImageMagick has a number of coder modules to support the reading and/or writing of an image format (e.g. JPEG). Some coder modules support more than one associated image format and the mapping between an associated format and its respective coder module is defined in this configuration file. For example, the PNG coder module not only supports the PNG image format, but the JNG and MNG formats as well.</p>
231 </dd>
232
233<dt class="doc"><a href="../www/source/colors.xml">colors.xml</a></dt>
234 <dd>Associate a color name with its red, green, blue, and alpha intensities.
235
236 <p>A number of command line options require a <a href="../www/color.html">color parameter</a>. It is often convenient to refer to a color by name (e.g. white) rather than by hex value (e.g. #fff). This file maps a color name to its equivalent red, green, blue, and alpha intensities (e.g. for white, red = 255, green = 255, blue = 255, and alpha = 0).</p>

241 <p>

246 <dd>Associate delegate programs with certain image formats.
247
248 <p>ImageMagick relies on a number of delegate programs to support certain image formats such as <a href="http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/">ufraw-batch</a> to read raw camera formats or <a href="http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/">Ghostscript</a> to read Postscript images. Use this configuration file to map an input or output format to an external delegate program.</p>

258 <dd>Associate message tags with a translation for your locale.
259
260 <p>ImageMagick has a number of informational, warning, and error messages that are represented as tags. Tags are short descriptions of a message such as
261 <em>FileNotFound</em> or <em>MemoryAllocationFailed</em>. This configuration file lists locales that have a translation for each tag recognized by ImageMagick. Currently only English and French translations are available in the <kbd>english.xml</kbd> and <kbd>francais.xml</kbd> configuration files.</p>
262 </dd>
263
264<dt class="doc"><a href="../www/source/log.xml">log.xml</a></dt>
265 <dd>Configure logging parameters.
266 <p>ImageMagick is capable of spewing copious amounts of informational or debugging statements. Use this file to configure how the information will appear in a log message and where you want the logging messages posted.</p>
267 </dd>
268
269<dt class="doc"><a href="../www/source/magic.xml">magic.xml</a></dt>
270 <dd>Associate an image format with a unique identifier.
271 <p>Many image formats have identifiers that uniquely identify a particular image format. For example, the GIF image format always begins with <kbd>GIF8</kbd> as the first 4 characters of the image. ImageMagick uses this information to quickly determine the type of image it is dealing with when it reads an image.</p>
272 </dd>
273
274<dt class="doc"><a href="../www/source/mime.xml">mime.xml</a></dt>
275 <dd>Associate an internet media type with a unique identifier.
276 <p>Many files and data streams have identifiers that uniquely identify a
277particular internet media type. For example, files in the "Corel Draw
278drawing" format (mime type="application/vnd.corel-draw") are associated with
279the filename pattern <kbd>*.cdr</kbd>, and also have an initial string of the
280characters "CDRXvrsn". ImageMagick uses combinations of this information,
281when available, to attempt to quickly determine the internet media type of a
282file or data stream.</p>
283</dd>
284
285<dt class="doc"><a href="../www/source/policy.xml">policy.xml</a></dt>
286 <dd>Configure ImageMagick policies.
cristyd75d5d12010-02-16 02:04:50 +0000[diff] [blame]287 <p>By default any coder, delegate, filter, or file path is permitted. Use a policy to deny access to, for example, the MPEG video delegate, or permit reading images from a file system but deny writing to that same file system. Or use the resource policy to set resource limits. Policies are useful for multi-user servers that want to limit the overall impact ImageMagick has on the system. For example, to limit the maximum image size in memory to 100MB:</p>
288
289<pre class="text">
290 &lt;policy domain="resource" name="area" value="100MB"/>
291</pre>
292
293<p>Any image larger than this area limit is cached to disk rather than memory.</p>
294
295<p>To limit the elapsed time of any ImageMagick command to 5 minutes, use this policy:</p>
296
297<pre class="text">
298 &lt;policy domain="resource" name="time" value="300"/>
