I am trying to convert a JPG image to a JP2 (JPEG 2000) format using the ImageMagick library on iOS. However, although the file extension is changing to .jp2, the format of the image does not seem to be changing. The output image is still being treated as a JPG file, and not as a true JP2 format.
Here is the code
- (IBAction)convertButtonClicked:(id)sender {
NSString *jpgPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Example" ofType:@"jpg"];
NSString *tempFilePath = [NSTemporaryDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Converted.jp2"];
MagickWand *wand = NewMagickWand(); if (MagickReadImage(wand, [jpgPath UTF8String]) == MagickFalse) { char *description; ExceptionType severity; description = MagickGetException(wand, &severity); NSLog(@"Error reading image: %s", description); MagickRelinquishMemory(description); return; } if (MagickSetFormat(wand, "JP2") == MagickFalse) { char *description; ExceptionType severity; description = MagickGetException(wand, &severity); NSLog(@"Error setting image format to JP2: %s", description); MagickRelinquishMemory(description); } if (MagickWriteImage(wand, [tempFilePath UTF8String]) == MagickFalse) { NSLog(@"Error writing JP2 image"); return; } NSLog(@"Image successfully converted.");
} @end
I can't help you with ImageMagick, but I think it's worth mentioning that calling Image I/O's CGImageSourceCopyTypeIdentifiers() and CGImageSourceCopyTypeIdentifiers() routines report that you can read and write jpeg2000 images in iOS 18.2.1. Maybe you might be able to use Image I/O instead of relying on a third party library.
