# JP2 Encoding Options @ ImageMagick
ImageMagick® is a software suite to create, edit, compose, or convert bitmap images. It can read and write images in a variety of formats (over 200) including PNG, JPEG, JPEG-2000, GIF, WebP, Postscript, PDF, and SVG. Use ImageMagick to resize, flip, mirror, rotate, distort, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves.

ImageMagick's JPEG-2000 image formats, JP2 and JPC, accept a plethora of encoding options as detailed below. As an example, suppose you are interested in these options:

- code blocks are 64 samples in width and 32 samples in height
- no multicomponent transform
- 4 resolution levels for each component
- compression is lossy at 64:1

Use this command to convert a JPEG-2000 image to the PNG image format:

    convert wizard.jp2 wizard.png

Let's convert a JPEG image to a lossless JPEG-2000 image:

    convert wizard.jpg -quality 0 wizard.jp2

Here we extract an area from the image:

    convert 'wizard.jp2[640x480+0+0]' wizard.png

Extract a particular tile from the image:

    convert 'wizard.jp2[2]' wizard.png

Specify a subsampling factor:

    convert wizard.png -colorspace YUV -sampling-factor 2,2 wizard.jp2

Save a tiled JPEG-2000 image:

    convert wizard.png 'wizard.png[512x512]'

Write a digital Cinema 4K profile compliant codestream:

    convert wizard.png -resize 4096x2160! -depth 12 wizard.jp2

Here is a complete list of JPEG-2000 decoding options:

jp2:quality-layers=x | set the maximum number of quality layers to decode.
jp2:reduce-factor=x | set the number of highest resolution levels to be discarded.

Here is a complete list of JPEG-2000 encoding options:

jp2:number-resolutions=x | number of resolutions to encode.
jp2:quality=x,x,... | set the quality layer PSNR, given in dB. The order is from left to right in ascending order. The default is a single lossless quality layer.
jp2:rate=x,x,... | the compression ratio values. Each value is a factor of compression, thus 20 means 20 times compressed. The order is from left to right in descending order. A final lossless quality layer is signified by the value 1. The default is a single lossless quality layer.
jp2:progression-order=x | choose from LRCP, RLCP, RPCL, PCRL or CPRL.
