tips

  1. When creating multipage files, the order of their pages is specified by the order of converted images (that is, the way they are sorted with the help of -sort key).

  2. If interlace parameter is activated, output files are created as follows: rows # 1, 5, 10 etc. are written first, rows # 2, 6, 11 etc. are written next, etc. This results in small increase of the file size. The main advantage of this mode is the way such images are loaded (rows # 1, 5, 10 etc. during the first pass, rows # 2, 6, 11 etc. during the second pass). The loaded rows are stretched to fill whole image space, so that users could understand what this image is like without waiting for it to load completely. This option is mostly used on the Web.
