Image : center and resizing

[vvv]

Hi All,

i am trying to resizing the handwritten letter to 30x30 pixel using python.

In mspaint , i draw a letter "A" and try to resize the letter using the below code and it works.

I want to center the image  if my letter is on the left side then program should crop the right side and unwanted blank space]and resize the image. How can i achieve this.

from PIL import Image

input_img = Image.open('C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\letterA.jpg')
input_img.size

new_width  = 30
new_height = 30
input_img = input_img.resize((new_width, new_height), Image.ANTIALIAS)

input_img.save('C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\output.jpg')

output_img = Image.open('C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\output.jpg')
output_img.size

Two good answers here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14211...python-pil

You can also use ImageMagick "trim" operator: http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/crop/#trim

(You can use imagemagick by calling command line processes, but it also has several Python bindings: https://randomfoo.net/2013/02/21/python-and-imagemagick
