     1.5 +
     1.6 +.SH NAME
     1.7 +resize-gd \- resizes images using the gd library
     1.8 +
     1.9 +.SH SYNOPSIS
    1.10 +.B resize-gd <size> PICTURES
    1.11 +
    1.12 +.B resize-gd <width>x<height> PICTURES
    1.13 +
    1.14 +.SH DESCRIPTION
    1.15 +The program resizes given images to a specific size. The files are modified, so copy the files before if you want to keep the original pictures!
    1.16 +.PP
    1.17 +If <size> is given, aspect ratio of the images is preserved and only shrinking is done. Smaller images remain unmodified.
    1.18 +.PP
    1.19 +If <width>x<height> ist given, the images are resized to match that dimensions. The images probably get stretched and enlarged.
    1.20 +.PP
    1.21 +Only JPEG and PNG files are supported. The filetype is detected by the filename suffix which has to be either `.jpg' or `.png' (in lowercase letters).
    1.22 +Unsupported files get skipped.
    1.23 +.PP
    1.24 +This program is meant to be a small(er) alternative to the
    1.25 +.BR mogrify -resize
    1.26 +command of ImageMagick. Mainly because ImageMagick has lots of dependencies, while the GD-Library has less.
