image converting

[paulman888888]

I have had a look on Google and there's a few things about image converting.

 

But they all use ImageMagick.

 

1) How can i find out if Imagemagick is installed on the serve (I don't own the server)

2) I know i have the GD install so can i convert images use the GD library?

 

 

Thankyou

I think PHP info will tell you if imagemagick is installed

Thankyou

 

I know that imagemakick is not install.

Plan B;

can The GD lib convert image filetypes?

 

 

thankyou

Change a png to a jpg

 

Note: Any transparency is lost in this case as jpg does not support transparency

You can change from different formats by changing the imagecreatefrompng and the imagejpeg functions.

 

<?php
// Create a new image in the memory from the file 
$png_image = imagecreatefrompng( "input.png" );
// Save the image as output.jpg
imagejpeg( $png_image, "output.jpg" );
// Clear the memory of the tempory image 
imagedestroy( $png_image );
?>
