Description
This patch accompanies http://drupal.org/node/269327. It modifies the ImageMagick toolkit to use the 'identify' command to identify images, and allows it to convert between image types.

#1
Here's the patch.
#2
this would need to happen in D6 and then be backported
#3
#4
This should use http://api.drupal.org/api/function/file_get_mimetype/6 instead.
Also, I'm not sure what to do with this issue and #269327: Support for more image types (PDF, TIFF, EPS, etc.). Both seem to depend on the core patch in #269337: Support for more image types (PDF, TIFF, EPS, etc.), which has not been committed yet and would only be available in D7.
#5
I believe that imageapi is heading for core:
http://lists.drupal.org/pipermail/development/2009-March/032407.html
, so I wonder if it would be worth seeing if this patch would have a good home at: #416254: Add equivalent of image_get_info() at the toolkit level
But I'm not 100% sure exactly what is going on with image stuff in D7.
