|
| +.SH SYNOPSIS
|

|
| +.SH DESCRIPTION
|
| +.LP
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +performs various useful transformations of JPEG files.
|
| +It can translate the coded representation from one variant of JPEG to another,
|
| +for example from baseline JPEG to progressive JPEG or vice versa. It can also
|
| +perform some rearrangements of the image data, for example turning an image
|
| +from landscape to portrait format by rotation.
|
| +.PP
|
| +For EXIF files and JPEG files containing Exif data, you may prefer to use
|
| +.B exiftran
|
| +instead.
|
| +.PP
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +works by rearranging the compressed data (DCT coefficients), without
|
| +ever fully decoding the image. Therefore, its transformations are lossless:
|
| +there is no image degradation at all, which would not be true if you used
|
| +.B djpeg
|
| +followed by
|
| +.B cjpeg
|
| +to accomplish the same conversion. But by the same token,
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +cannot perform lossy operations such as changing the image quality. However,
|
| +while the image data is losslessly transformed, metadata can be removed. See
|
| +the
|
| +.B \-copy
|
| +option for specifics.
|
| +.PP
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +reads the named JPEG/JFIF file, or the standard input if no file is
|
| +named, and produces a JPEG/JFIF file on the standard output.
|
| +.SH OPTIONS
|
| +All switch names may be abbreviated; for example,
|
| +.B \-optimize
|
| +may be written
|
| +.B \-opt
|
| +or
|
| +.BR \-o .
|
| +Upper and lower case are equivalent.
|
| +British spellings are also accepted (e.g.,
|
| +.BR \-optimise ),
|
| +though for brevity these are not mentioned below.
|
| +.PP
|
| +To specify the coded JPEG representation used in the output file,
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +accepts a subset of the switches recognized by
|
| +.BR cjpeg :
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-optimize
|
| +Perform optimization of entropy encoding parameters.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-progressive
|
| +Create progressive JPEG file.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.BI \-restart " N"
|
| +Emit a JPEG restart marker every N MCU rows, or every N MCU blocks if "B" is
|
| +attached to the number.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-arithmetic
|
| +Use arithmetic coding.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.BI \-scans " file"
|
| +Use the scan script given in the specified text file.
|
| +.PP
|
| +See
|
| +.BR cjpeg (1)
|
| +for more details about these switches.
|
| +If you specify none of these switches, you get a plain baseline-JPEG output
|
| +file. The quality setting and so forth are determined by the input file.
|
| +.PP
|
| +The image can be losslessly transformed by giving one of these switches:
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-flip horizontal
|
| +Mirror image horizontally (left-right).
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-flip vertical
|
| +Mirror image vertically (top-bottom).
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-rotate 90
|
| +Rotate image 90 degrees clockwise.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-rotate 180
|
| +Rotate image 180 degrees.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-rotate 270
|
| +Rotate image 270 degrees clockwise (or 90 ccw).
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-transpose
|
| +Transpose image (across UL-to-LR axis).
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-transverse
|
| +Transverse transpose (across UR-to-LL axis).
|
| +.PP
|
| +The transpose transformation has no restrictions regarding image dimensions.
|
| +The other transformations operate rather oddly if the image dimensions are not
|
| +a multiple of the iMCU size (usually 8 or 16 pixels), because they can only
|
| +transform complete blocks of DCT coefficient data in the desired way.
|
| +.PP
|
| +.BR jpegtran 's
|
| +default behavior when transforming an odd-size image is designed
|
| +to preserve exact reversibility and mathematical consistency of the
|
| +transformation set. As stated, transpose is able to flip the entire image
|
| +area. Horizontal mirroring leaves any partial iMCU column at the right edge
|
| +untouched, but is able to flip all rows of the image. Similarly, vertical
|
| +mirroring leaves any partial iMCU row at the bottom edge untouched, but is
|
| +able to flip all columns. The other transforms can be built up as sequences
|
| +of transpose and flip operations; for consistency, their actions on edge
|
| +pixels are defined to be the same as the end result of the corresponding
|
| +transpose-and-flip sequence.
|
| +.PP
|
| +For practical use, you may prefer to discard any untransformable edge pixels
|
| +rather than having a strange-looking strip along the right and/or bottom edges
|
| +of a transformed image. To do this, add the
|
| +.B \-trim
|
| +switch:
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-trim
|
| +Drop non-transformable edge blocks.
|
| +.IP
|
| +Obviously, a transformation with
|
| +.B \-trim
|
| +is not reversible, so strictly speaking
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +with this switch is not lossless. Also, the expected mathematical
|
| +equivalences between the transformations no longer hold. For example,
|
| +.B \-rot 270 -trim
|
| +trims only the bottom edge, but
|
| +.B \-rot 90 -trim
|
| +followed by
|
| +.B \-rot 180 -trim
|
| +trims both edges.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-perfect
|
| +If you are only interested in perfect transformations, add the
|
| +.B \-perfect
|
| +switch. This causes
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +to fail with an error if the transformation is not perfect.
|
| +.IP
|
| +For example, you may want to do
|
| +.IP
|
| +.B (jpegtran \-rot 90 -perfect
|
| +.I foo.jpg
|
| +.B || djpeg
|
| +.I foo.jpg
|
| +.B | pnmflip \-r90 | cjpeg)
|
| +.IP
|
| +to do a perfect rotation, if available, or an approximated one if not.
|
| +.PP
|
| +This version of \fBjpegtran\fR also offers a lossless crop option, which
|
| +discards data outside of a given image region but losslessly preserves what is
|
| +inside. Like the rotate and flip transforms, lossless crop is restricted by the
|
| +current JPEG format; the upper left corner of the selected region must fall on
|
| +an iMCU boundary. If it doesn't, then it is silently moved up and/or left to
|
| +the nearest iMCU boundary (the lower right corner is unchanged.) Thus, the
|
| +output image covers at least the requested region, but it may cover more. The
|
| +adjustment of the region dimensions may be optionally disabled by attaching
|
| +an 'f' character ("force") to the width or height number.
|
| +
|
| +The image can be losslessly cropped by giving the switch:
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-crop WxH+X+Y
|
| +Crop the image to a rectangular region of width W and height H, starting at
|
| +point X,Y. The lossless crop feature discards data outside of a given image
|
| +region but losslessly preserves what is inside. Like the rotate and flip
|
| +transforms, lossless crop is restricted by the current JPEG format; the upper
|
| +left corner of the selected region must fall on an iMCU boundary. If it
|
| +doesn't, then it is silently moved up and/or left to the nearest iMCU boundary
|
| +(the lower right corner is unchanged.)
|
| +.PP
|
| +Other not-strictly-lossless transformation switches are:
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-grayscale
|
| +Force grayscale output.
|
| +.IP
|
| +This option discards the chrominance channels if the input image is YCbCr
|
| +(ie, a standard color JPEG), resulting in a grayscale JPEG file. The
|
| +luminance channel is preserved exactly, so this is a better method of reducing
|
| +to grayscale than decompression, conversion, and recompression. This switch
|
| +is particularly handy for fixing a monochrome picture that was mistakenly
|
| +encoded as a color JPEG. (In such a case, the space savings from getting rid
|
| +of the near-empty chroma channels won't be large; but the decoding time for
|
| +a grayscale JPEG is substantially less than that for a color JPEG.)
|
| +.PP
|
| +.B jpegtran
|
| +also recognizes these switches that control what to do with "extra" markers,
|
| +such as comment blocks:
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-copy none
|
| +Copy no extra markers from source file. This setting suppresses all
|
| +comments and other metadata in the source file.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-copy comments
|
| +Copy only comment markers. This setting copies comments from the source file
|
| +but discards any other metadata.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-copy all
|
| +Copy all extra markers. This setting preserves miscellaneous markers
|
| +found in the source file, such as JFIF thumbnails, Exif data, and Photoshop
|
| +settings. In some files, these extra markers can be sizable. Note that this
|
| +option will copy thumbnails as-is; they will not be transformed.
|
| +.PP
|
| +The default behavior is \fB-copy comments\fR. (Note: in IJG releases v6 and
|
| +v6a, \fBjpegtran\fR always did the equivalent of \fB-copy none\fR.)
|
| +.PP
|
| +Additional switches recognized by jpegtran are:
|
| +.TP
|
| +.BI \-maxmemory " N"
|
| +Set limit for amount of memory to use in processing large images. Value is
|
| +in thousands of bytes, or millions of bytes if "M" is attached to the
|
| +number. For example,
|
| +.B \-max 4m
|
| +selects 4000000 bytes. If more space is needed, temporary files will be used.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.BI \-outfile " name"
|
| +Send output image to the named file, not to standard output.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-verbose
|
| +Enable debug printout. More
|
| +.BR \-v 's
|
| +give more output. Also, version information is printed at startup.
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-debug
|
| +Same as
|
| +.BR \-verbose .
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B \-version
|
| +Print version information and exit.
|
| +.SH EXAMPLES
|
| +.LP
|
| +This example converts a baseline JPEG file to progressive form:
|
| +.IP
|
| +.B jpegtran \-progressive
|
| +.I foo.jpg
|
| +.B >
|
| +.I fooprog.jpg
|
| +.PP
|
| +This example rotates an image 90 degrees clockwise, discarding any
|
| +unrotatable edge pixels:
|
| +.IP
|
| +.B jpegtran \-rot 90 -trim
|
| +.I foo.jpg
|
| +.B >
|
| +.I foo90.jpg
|
| +.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
| +.TP
|
| +.B JPEGMEM
|
| +If this environment variable is set, its value is the default memory limit.
|
| +The value is specified as described for the
|
| +.B \-maxmemory
|
| +switch.
|
| +.B JPEGMEM
|
| +overrides the default value specified when the program was compiled, and
|
| +itself is overridden by an explicit
|
| +.BR \-maxmemory .

|
| +The transform options can't transform odd-size images perfectly. Use
|
| +.B \-trim
|
| +or
|
| +.B \-perfect
|
| +if you don't like the results.
|

|
| +The entire image is read into memory and then written out again, even in
