convert monochrome/bitmap
« on: February 04, 2009, 03:04:22 PM »
Hi,

I'm in need to convert a monochrome/bitmap image to gif with php.

I've been searching the web for a while, and All I found was this :
http://www.captchakiller.com/php-convert-monochrome

that it makes jpg to monochrome gif (not even bitmap).

Any help how to achieve that?  (monochrome/bitmap -> jpg, gif whatever readble by html)

I'm Not sure if this is what your answer is, but I would suggest:

ImageMagick

It can convert image very quickly!

Thanks for the reply.

I do not have access to my php folder and I don't think my site admin allow to install such thing. (I'll ask though)
However, I think this would a bit big for my purpose. 

I was looking if it was possible with a function like that url I gave, or something similar.
