Question

i want to bulk crop image so i thought i use imagemagick but when i run this command on the command line:

convert src.jpg -gravity center -crop '290×310+50+50' src_c.jpg

this’s error message:

convert: option requires an argument `-crop' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/1087.

what’s the problem here.

im on ubuntu 11.04 and i’m using imagemagick 6.6.2

any help.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

From my experiments your x in 290×310+50+50 isn’t actually an x (The letter X, rather than a multiplication symbol). Change it to an x (as in the letter) and it works for me
