This has come up before, you just gotta find it --> Image::Magick bmp jpg site:perlmonks.thepen.com --> Image Magick JPG --> Image::Magick thumb site:perlmonks.thepen.com

update: when in doubt, super search ( http://shawn.apocabilly.org/PGP/)

IIRC, imagemagick picks up the format from the filename (or you can say ->Write(format:filename)) This ought to do it

my $im = Image::Magick->new;
$im->Read('file.bmp');
$im->Scale(geometry => '30x30'); # make a thumbnail, lol
$im->Write('file.jpg');

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
