Notes: |
Meta image files can often be authored at very high resolutions (sometimes in excess of 10,000 units for both the width and height)
and this would lead to very large converted image sizes. To combat this it is possible to set the maximum total area of the rendered image
as a value in megapixels (similar to the way that digital cameras have their resolutions quoted). If a meta image file's
width x height is greater than the specified number of mega pixels then it is re-sized to be within this value. It is
important to note that this "re-size" is actually a meta image file rendering transformation and not a "re-size" in the
strictest sense (see the -MetaImageScale command below for this option).
Here is a list of common mega pixel sizes and an example of an image size that just fits within this limit:
1.3 | = 1300 x 1000 |
2.2 | = 1800 x 1200 |
3.1 | = 2000 x 1600 |
4.3 | = 2400 x 1800 |
5.3 | = 2700 x 2000 |
6.1 | = 2900 x 2200 |
8.2 | = 3400 x 2500 |
10.0 | = 3700 x 2800 |
The default setting is 2.2
