It can also +perform some rearrangements of the image data, for example turning an image +from landscape to portrait format by rotation. +.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. +.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 +.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. +.PP +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. +.PP +Another not-strictly-lossless transformation switch is: +.TP +.B \-grayscale +Force grayscale output. +.PP +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 excess baggage present in the source file. +.TP +.B \-copy comments +Copy only comment markers. This setting copies comments from the source file, +but discards any other inessential data. +.TP +.B \-copy all +Copy all extra markers. This setting preserves miscellaneous markers +found in the source file, such as JFIF thumbnails and Photoshop settings. +In some files these extra markers can be sizable. +.PP +The default behavior is +.BR "\-copy comments" . +(Note: in IJG releases v6 and v6a, +.B jpegtran +always did the equivalent of +.BR "\-copy none" .) +.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 . +.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 . +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR cjpeg (1), +.BR djpeg (1), +.BR rdjpgcom (1), +.BR wrjpgcom (1) +.br +Wallace, Gregory K.
