How to change the DPI of a photo in Python
Today we will use our convert API to easily change the DPI of an image file. Let’s begin by installing the client using pip installer.
pip install git+https://github.com/Cloudmersive/Cloudmersive.APIClient.Python.Convert.git
All that’s left is to call convert_image_image_set_dpi and input the image file and specify the desired DPI:
from __future__ import print_function
import time
import cloudmersive_convert_api_client
from cloudmersive_convert_api_client.rest import ApiException
from pprint import pprint# Configure API key authorization: Apikey
configuration = cloudmersive_convert_api_client.Configuration()
configuration.api_key['Apikey'] = 'YOUR_API_KEY'
# Uncomment below to setup prefix (e.g. Bearer) for API key, if needed
# configuration.api_key_prefix['Apikey'] = 'Bearer'# create an instance of the API class
api_instance = cloudmersive_convert_api_client.ConvertImageApi(cloudmersive_convert_api_client.ApiClient(configuration))
dpi = 56 # int | New DPI in pixels-per-inch, for example 300 DPI or 600 DPI
input_file = '/path/to/file' # file | Input file to perform the operation on.try:
# Change image DPI
api_response = api_instance.convert_image_image_set_dpi(dpi, input_file)
pprint(api_response)
except ApiException as e:
print("Exception when calling ConvertImageApi->convert_image_image_set_dpi: %s\n" % e)
And it’s really just that simple.
