ImageMagick Transcoder for Cloud
iconik deploys it's own ImageMagick transcoder for your use for transcoding images. You can additional define a new transcoder using the ImageMagick Type for use with your storage, or to change the default parameters.
Dimensions of the image
You can define the Max Width and Max Height in pixels of the image generated by the transcoder - which gets used depends on the aspect ratio of the image i.e Portrait images would hit the Max Height setting before they reach Max Width. images are typically created at 72dpi.
Larger images will give a better preview for review, but take up more storage space and will take longer to download and display. A size of 2048 for both width and height for each is a good starting point if you are unsure what to set these parameters to.
Please note we do not upscale images
