RE: [Zope] Need help with ImageMagick or PIL with CMFPhoto for ph oto resize
Hmm, that I don't know. I am cc'ing the list - maybe someone else does. I have always used Photo 1.2.3, and CMFPhoto only just to 'have a look see'. When I uploaded a bmp, Photo 1.2.3 would not resize it, perhaps the same is true of CMFPhoto. Photo would resize a jpg. Seems like the thing to do is install jpg support for imagemagick. Perhaps bypass the Redhat version and install imagemagick from source?

Now then, my next question/issue that you might be able to help me is with Zope and Plone. Since I can use the command line "convert -resize" a bmp file, I would figure that I can go to my Plone site and add a bmp file as a Photo object and then view the different sizes. However, I can only see the Photo (or bmp) in its original size. This tells me that Plone/Zope/Python does not "know" to use ImageMagick as the engine to use for resizing. Is there another tweak I must do to get my site to use ImageMagick? --Jim --- "Meilicke, Scott" <scott.meilicke@intp.com> wrote:
sounds like imagemagick isn't installed correctly... I can't help you there, unfortunately.

Yes, I did try the convert after copying a jpg to my tmp folder and got the following results:
[root@localhost tmp]# convert Snowmen_Rabbit.jpg Snowmen_Rabbit.gif convert: No decode delegate for this image format (Snowmen_Rabbit.jpg).

Have you tried ImageMagick from the command line? Something like
convert -g 500x500 originalimage.jpg
This will resize originalimage.jpg to be 500 px max high or wide. It will maintain the aspect ratio.
If that works, then zope isn't seeing imagemagick... I'm not enough of a linux person to tell you want to do in this case.

I am using:
Zope 2.6.1 Plone 1.0.1 CMF 1.3
I can add a CMFPhotoAlbum as well as a CMFPhoto on my Plone site. I want to be able to view the photo sized differently than the Original Size. I tried to install ImageMagick using the rpm for Redhat 9 (i386). Since it asked for a lot of XFree86 modules, I used the -nodeps option and it seemed to install just fine. However, I still cannot resize the photos. I am a newbie but I am learning. Could you please help me?
Thanks, Jim Barbara
