# imagecreatefromjpeg

(PHP 3 >= 3.0.16, PHP 4, PHP 5)

imagecreatefromjpeg -- Create a new image from file or URL

## Описание

resource imagecreatefromjpeg ( string filename )

imagecreatefromjpeg() returns an image identifier representing the image obtained from the given filename.

imagecreatefromjpeg() returns an empty string on failure. It also outputs an error message, which unfortunately displays as a broken link in a browser. To ease debugging the following example will produce an error JPEG:

Пример 1. Example to handle an error during creation

`<?php
function LoadJpeg($imgname)
{
$im = @imagecreatefromjpeg($imgname); /* Attempt to open */
if (!$im) { /* See if it failed */
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(150, 30); /* Create a black image */
$bgc = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$tc = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 150, 30, $bgc);
/* Output an errmsg */
imagestring($im, 1, 5, 5, "Error loading $imgname", $tc);
}
return $im;
}
header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");
$img = LoadJpeg("bogus.image");
imagejpeg($img);
?>`

Результатом выполнения данного примера будет что-то подобное:

> Подсказка: Для этой функции вы можете использовать URL в качестве имени файла, если была включена опция "fopen wrappers". Смотрите более подробную информацию об определении имени файла в описании функции fopen(), а также список поддерживаемых протоколов URL в Прил. M.

## Список параметров

`filename`

  Path to the JPEG image

## Возвращаемые значения

Returns an image resource identifier on success, `FALSE` on errors.

## Примечания

> Замечание: JPEG support is only available if PHP was compiled against GD-1.8 or later.

Внимание
Версии `PHP` для Windows до PHP 4.3.0 не поддерживают возможность использования удаленных файлов этой функцией даже в том случае, если опция allow_url_fopen включена.

`If imagecreatefromjpeg() fails with "PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromjpeg()", it does NOT necessarily mean that you don't have GD installed.
If phpinfo() shows GD, but not JPEG support, then that's the problem. You would think that --with-gd would do the right thing since it does check for the existance of libjpeg (and finds it) and add that feature to GD, but it doesn't in v4.4.4 at least on RHEL v2.1, RHEL v3, CentOS v2.1 or CentOS v4.3.
On those platforms, it's *important* that --with-jpeg-dir be *before* --with-gd. If it's not, GD won't build with jpeg support as if --with-jpeg-dir had never been specified...`

`In a post by Angel Leon, an example script was given that forms a thumbnail gallery using imagecreatefromjpeg. I am fairly new to php scripts, but I found that the script did not display the table of thumbnail images if the row wasn't "filled" with images.. i.e. if there were 5 images in the folder and the script specified 3 rows in the table, then the page would only display the thumbnails for the first row and only three images were shown. I found that if you specified the variable row with this equation, then the table would display properly:
$row = intval(count($files)+($row_size-1));
(This is the first line in the createThumbTable function.)`

`regarding e dot a dot schultz at gmail dot com post
i tried the script (with the bugfixes posted later) and still got memorytrouble. most often it is still not enough memory to upload big images, even if it seems to calculate right. so this helped my perfectly:
$newLimit = $newLimit+3000000; (before passing it to the ini_set() function).
extremly simple and maybe not the best solution, but it works for now (you sure can give it less than an additional 3mb, just try what works for you).`

`When working with uploaded jpeg files it is usually a good idea to execute a little but very useful program called jhead
( http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/ ).
This will clean up unnecessary jpeg header information which can cause trouble. Some cameras or applications write binary data into the headers which may result in ugly results such as strange colors when you resample the image later on.
Usage:
<?php
exec("/path/to/jhead -purejpg /path/to/image");
// for example when you uploaded a file through a form, do this before you proceed:
exec("/path/to/jhead -purejpg ".$file['tmp_name']);
?>
I didn't have the chance to test this but I guess this might even solve the problem caused by images that were taken with Canon PowerShot cameras which crash PHP.
This is from the jhead documentation: "-purejpg: Delete all JPEG sections that aren't necessary for rendering the image. Strips any metadata that various applications may have left in the image."
jhead got some other useful options as well...`

`Matt reported that PHP crashs using imagecreatefromjpeg() - that's true and it took me a lot of time to find the error - but not only the Canon PowerShot S70, also the Canon PowerShot A400 lets PHP (5.1.2) crash, without any chance to catch it!

`Additional note on allocating memory: The 1.65 in the formula provided below by yaroukh and Karolis is evidently a "fudge factor" arrived at through experimentation. I found that I had to nudge it up a little bit in order to accurately predict the memory that would be needed, otherwise the allocation still failed. In my case, I went right to 1.8 and that has worked so far. Your mileage may vary, so experiment as needed.`

`Hello Karolis
My solution was intended to solve situations when your webhoster puts a limit on the memory usage; in such a situations ini_set doesn't work ofcourse (even for variables that have 'PHP_INI_ALL' flag in a typical PHP-installation).

`In addition to yaroukh at gmail dot com comment.
It seems that even a small image can eat up your default memory limit real quick. Config value 'memory_limit' is marked PHP_INI_ALL, so you can change it dynamically using ini_set. Therefore, we can "allocate memory dynamically", to prevent those memory limit exceeded errors.
<?php
$imageInfo = getimagesize('PATH/TO/YOUR/IMAGE');
$memoryNeeded = round(($imageInfo[0] * $imageInfo[1] * $imageInfo['bits'] * $imageInfo['channels'] / 8 + Pow(2, 16)) * 1.65);
if (function_exists('memory_get_usage') && memory_get_usage() + $memoryNeeded > (integer) ini_get('memory_limit') * pow(1024, 2)) {
ini_set('memory_limit', (integer) ini_get('memory_limit') + ceil(((memory_get_usage() + $memoryNeeded) - (integer) ini_get('memory_limit') * pow(1024, 2)) / pow(1024, 2)) . 'M');

`Estimated memory needed for ImageCreateFromJPEG
First I supposed simple width*height*bpp will be enough, it isn't though; there is some pretty big overhead.
$imageInfo = GetImageSize($imageFilename);
$memoryNeeded = Round(($imageInfo[0] * $imageInfo[1] * $imageInfo['bits'] * $imageInfo['channels'] / 8 + Pow(2, 16)) * 1.65);
With memory_limit enabled running out of memory causes script to crash; above written will tel you how much memory you're gonna need for creating an image-resource out of image-file. So in conjunction with Memory_Get_Usage() and Get_CFG_Var('memory_limit') you can avoid the mentioned ending. (Yet there won't be too many images blocked from processing that would still fit in the memory, as the results of this are pretty accurate.)`

`Under some configurations imagecreatefromjpeg will create files that are owned by the webserver rather than the php user. For example, php may be run as phpuser and the image will be created under apache.
This can lead to permissions problems - only a +0777 will be enough to be able to create a picture.
My solution was to chmod over ftp to 0777 just before the picture is written then change back to 0755 when the image has been created.
The alternative of course would be to have a properly configured system...`

`Another thing to note, is the file not might actually be a jpeg , even though the filename ends in .jpg. If this is the case the command won't work. You will need imagecreatefromgif()
The easiest way to check is to use your favorite editor like vi.
On Line one it will tell you if its a gif or a jpg..
I took a quick look at a few image files. the gifs say GIF87a and the real jpegs should say JFIF or something like that.`

`I have to say recompiling PHP from the sources and enabling JPEG support in gd took me awhile to figure out.
Somewhere especially configure --help should have stated that --with-jpeg-dir is MANDATORY if you want to have JPEG support. And even if you did so, it doesn't mean you'll get it. If it's wrongly configured, no error is going to be output, all you get is "no JPEG support". What's more confusing is when JPEG support is disabled phpinfo won't say "JPEG Support: disabled", but just omit the entry so you won't even realize something is wrong.
If you recompile PHP or gd, make sure:
- rm -f config.cache FIRST
- make clean (this helps A LOT), actually you can just delete modules/gd.*, and every *.o in ext/gd. this part actually gave me the best headache
- ./configure --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib OR any other directory which contains the BINARY library of libjpeg
- make, make install
phpinfo should now display jpeg support... good luck.
(you lucky guys who already have PHP 5 installed on your server... you don't have to go through all the mess I had)`

E.g. including file A into file B, and then executing file A. Now calls made in file B will act as if they actually are made file A, due to the inclusion. So a well designed filesystem is very important. Also moving a file might lead to this type of path related problems.
Hope this made any sence! :)`

`I have noticed that Nokia's old camera-phones create non-standard JPEG's.
Nokias' JPEG doesn't end with 0xFFD9. Add 0xFFD9 end of file and image works fine with imagecreatefromjpeg(). Willertan1980 already sent code to do that.`

`This function DOES accept paths in the filename, just make sure they're absolute paths. A relative path won't work, at least it didn't for me. This is in response to jonlup's comment from june 25:
"I played with "imagecreatefromjpeg()" function and, after a few tests, I found that the filename that it requires as parameter should be only a simple filename: the function does not work if in the string of the filename is specified a path to that file."`

you can check how it works on http://www.jetevents.pl
<?php
$maxx=100; // maximum width
$maxy=75; // maximum height
$name=strtolower(substr($_FILES['file']['name'],0,-4)).".jpg"; // name of file - must be jpg
$size = GetImageSize ($_FILES['file']['tmp_name']); // params of image
if ($size[0]>$size[1]) {$sizemin[0]=$maxx;$sizemin[1]=$maxy;};
if ($size[1]>$size[0]) {$sizemin[0]=$maxy;$sizemin[1]=$maxx;};
$im=@imagecreatefromjpeg($path); // path to your gallery
$small = imagecreatetruecolor($sizemin[0], $sizemin[1]); // new image
ImageCopyResampled($small, $im, 0, 0, 0, 0, $sizemin[0], $sizemin[1], $size[0], $size[1]);
// below is main function resampling image
ImageDestroy($im); // free memory
if (ImageJPEG($small,$path,100)) // try to save image
{
echo "File $path has been written<br>\n"; // success
echo "size: ".$sizemin[0]."x".$sizemin[1] ."<br>\n";
}
else
{
echo "<font color=red><b>"; // failed to write file
echo "Error ! File has not been written.";
echo "</b></font><br>\n";

`I played with "imagecreatefromjpeg()" function and, after a few tests, I found that the filename that it requires as parameter should be only a simple filename: the function does not work if in the string of the filename is specified a path to that file.
The quickest workaround found: do a chdir() to the directory of your image file before try to use "imagecreatefromjpeg()" with your file as parameter.
I did not test the other functions (imagecreatefromgd2(), imagecreatefromgd(), imagecreatefromgif() etc.), but I suppose that they work in the same way.
I think that little trick should be specified in the manual.`

`ImageCreateFromJPEG() as of GD 2.0.15 (as bundled with PHP 4.3.4) doesn't handle 4-channel (with alpha channel) JPG images well, the function fails and emits message 'Unsupported color conversion request' to stderr. The solution I found for this is to use NetPBM tools - 'jpegtopnm < orig.jpg | pnmtojpeg > new.jpg' creates a JPG image PHP GD library can open just fine.`

`For Windows users who wants to enable the GD libary:
It took me some while to figure this out, but in the end it worked (and still does) great.
1. First download the latest (stable recommended) version of php
2. Unzip to f.ex c:\php\
3. Now you should have a file in c:\php\ that's named php.ini.dist (or something like that). Rename that to php.ini and copy it to the root of you Windows directory.
4. Open the php.ini file (the easiers way is to open the run promnt at your start menu and just type php.ini and hit enter).
5. Search (ctrl+f) for extension_dir. The default value is set to "./", make it to "./extensions"
6. Now you need to find where in the php.ini the modules for Windows is located. Search for gd.
7. Remove the ; char infront of this line: extension=php_gd2.dll
8. Try make a php script with some image functions and see if it works. F.ex $im = imageCreate("test.jpg");
If you get a message that says something like imageCreate function doesn't exist the gd libary is not loaded.
9. That's all. Have fun using GD in Windows :)`

`As jpsy sugested Windows users can download the zip to get the gd2_dll extension
OR
If you already installed with the windows installer and are too lazy to get the zip you can go here
http://www.coupin.net/gd-freetype/windows.php
Download the php_gd2.dll file put it wherever you want, and change the
extension_dir=C:\php\extensions
Wherever you saved the dll to is the path you put in, remember to uncomment
extension=php_gd2.dll
Do not uncomment the one above for gd.dll (the one without the 2)`

This seems to work pretty well. Displays in browser and QT Picture Viewer but for some reason Photoshop won't open it. Translation error. Since I'm just using it to cache the image for when the our content provider goes down no biggie there.
$si = fopen($imagePathURL, "r"); // open URL
$serverImg = fread($si, 1000000); // read contents
fclose($si); // close file
/* open file to save to (w+ creates if file does not exist || b opens binary safe [Win32]) Seemed to work fine with out the 'b' on Windows NT but just to be safe. */
