I wrote a bit of perl to process "multi-16" mode pictures from a Nikon camera, where a 4x4 grid of images is stored in a single frame. This uses ImageMagick identify and convert -crop to separate the 16 images. I'm not sure if you're referring to a 3x3 grid(s), but if so then perhaps this might be useful. $ cat `which multi16-split` #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my $image = shift or die; my $identify = `identify $image`; my ($sizex, $sizey) = $identify =~ m/(\d+)x(\d+)/; my ($cropx, $cropy) = ($sizex/4, $sizey/4); printf "%sx%s, %sx%s\n", $sizex, $sizey, $cropx, $cropy; my $n = "00"; my ($out) = $image =~ m{([^/]+).jpg}; for ( my $y=0; $y<$sizey; $y+=$sizey/4 ) { for ( my $x=0; $x<$sizex; $x+=$sizex/4 ) { my $outfile = sprintf "$out-%02d.jpg", $n++; print "convert -crop 25\%x25\%+$x+$y $image $outfile", "\n"; system "convert -crop 25\%x25\%+$x+$y $image $outfile"; } } I don't think you need to have separate images for html mapping to work, though. -- Ken Irving -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
