public class ImageMagickTransformer
extends AbstractTransformer
implements ProvenanceSupporter

Converts an image using ImageMagick.
In order to make entering of commands easier, they can be spread over multiple lines and line comments can be inserted as well (a line comment starts with '#').

NB: Uses im4java, i.e., ImageMagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/) executables must be available on the PATH.

Input/output:
- accepts:
java.awt.image.BufferedImage
- generates:
java.awt.image.BufferedImage

Valid options are:

-D <int> (property: debugLevel)
    The greater the number the more additional info the scheme may output to
    the console (0 = off).
    default: 0
    minimum: 0
 

-name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
    The name of the actor.
    default: ImageMagickTransformer
 

-annotation <adams.core.base.BaseText> (property: annotations)
    The annotations to attach to this actor.
    default:
 

-skip (property: skip)
    If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded
    as it is.
 

-stop-flow-on-error (property: stopFlowOnError)
    If set to true, the flow gets stopped in case this actor encounters an error;
     useful for critical actors.
 

-commands <adams.core.base.BaseText> (property: commands)
    The ImageMagick commands to execute.
    default:
