Module for manipulating JPEG image Paul 01-04-2007

I have looked at the Image modules, but haven't found the function I am
looking for. I would like to open a series of JPEG image files, compress the
dimensions, and save the reduced image to the original file. Suggestions?

First suggestion: Don't do that if you can avoid it. Lossy compression and
all that, ya know - if you have access to a non-lossy original, like a PSD
file, it'd be better to load that, resize it, then export a new JPEG.

Second suggestion: ImageMagick.

Third suggestion: GD.

Thanks, ImageMagick is a charm.
