“linux jpeg to jpeg small”

 

Hello there!

Here are some tips to follow on how you could convert your Linux jpg image into smaller jpg image. I have used several codes that I found in the internet and these are one of the simplest one you could use :

 

• If this is a huge image file and you need to reduce it in image size then you need a command line tool like the 'convert' code from ImageMagick Package.

  

Here is the code:

 

su -c 'yum install ImageMagick'  

 

• Then to resize it you can use this code

 

convert <*.jpeg> -resize <reduce it by how many percent><*_new.jpeg>

 

FOR EXAMPLE :

 

convert stars.jpg -resize 50% stars_new.jpg

 

Your image should be reduced by 50%. Hope this helps!
