57<p class="lead magick-description">ImageMagick uses an ASCII string known as <var>magick</var> (e.g. <code>GIF</code>) to identify file formats, algorithms acting as formats, built-in patterns, and embedded profile types.  Support for some of the formats are delegated to libraries or external programs. The Installation Guide describes where to find these distributions and any special configuration options required.</p>
58
59<p>To get a complete listing of which image formats are supported on your system, type</p>
60
61<pre>
62identify -list format
63</pre>
64
65<p>On some platforms, ImageMagick automagically processes these extensions: .gz for Zip compression, .Z for Unix compression, .bz2 for block compression, and .pgp for PGP encryption. For example, a PNM image called image.pnm.gz is automagically uncompressed.</p>
66
67<h2 class="magick-header"><a id="colorspace"></a>A Word about Colorspaces</h2>
68 <p>A majority of the image formats assume an sRGB
69colorspace (e.g. JPEG, PNG, etc.).  A few support only linear RGB (e.g. EXR,
70DPX, CIN, HDR) or only linear GRAY (e.g. PGM).  A few formats support CMYK.
71Then there is the occasional format that also supports LAB (that is CieLAB)
72(e.g. TIFF, PSD, JPG, JP2).  To determine the colorspace of your image, use
73this command:</p>
74
75<pre>
76-> identify -verbose image.jpg
77Image: image.jpg
78Format: JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group JFIF format)
79...
80Colorspace: sRGB
81</pre>
82
83OR use the appropriate percent escape
84<pre>
85-> convert image.jpg -print "%[colorspace]\n" null:
86sRGB
87</pre>
88
89
90<p>When processing an image, be aware of the colorspace.  Many image
91processing algorithms assume a linear RGB colorspace.  Although you may get
92satisfactory results processing in the sRGB colorspace, you may get improved
93results in linear RGB (essentially sRGB with the gamma function removed).  For
94example,</p>
95
96<pre>
97convert image.jpg -colorspace RGB -resize 50% -colorspace sRGB resize.jpg
98</pre>
99
100<p>As of IM 6.7.8-2 one can properly work in LAB colorspace whether or not
101Imagemagick is <a href="high-dynamic-range.php">HDRI</a>-enabled.  Essentually the A and
102B channels are stored with a 50% gray bias, to allow it to handle the
103negatives required by the format.</p>
104
105<pre>
106convert lab.tif -resize 50% resize.jpg
107</pre>
108
109<p>Again, it may not make sense for some image processing operators to work
110directly in LAB space, but ImageMagick permits it and generally returns
111reasonable results.</p>
112
113<p>Prior to IM 6.7.8-2, the A and B channels has a discontinuity, making them
114non-linear. As such to process such images, you needed to first convert the
115colorspace some other linear colorspace, before apply your processing
116operator. Afterward you can transform back to the LAB colorspace.  For
117example,</p>
118
119<pre>
120  convert lab.tif -colorspace RGB -resize 50% -colorspace Lab resize.jpg
121</pre>
122
123<h2 class="magick-header"><a id="supported"></a>Supported Image Formats</h2>
124
125<p>ImageMagick supports reading over 100 major file formats (not
126including sub-formats). The following table provides a summary of
127the supported image formats.</p>
