6 mogrify - resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on,
7 flip, join, re-sample, and much more. Mogrify overwrites the original
8 image file, whereas, convert(1) writes to a different image file.

14 The mogrify program is a member of the ImageMagick(1) suite of tools.
15 Use it to resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on,
16 flip, join, re-sample, and much more. This tool is similar to con‐
17 vert(1) except the original image file is overwritten with any changes
18 you request.

240 By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic num‐
242 ber. To specify a particular image format, precede the filename with
243 an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the image
244 type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps). Specify 'file' as '-' for
245 standard input or output.
