Subject: Use MetaPost to distort images?
Date: Fri, 3 Sep 2021 12:28:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BA499834-4E4E-49C2-B3CD-06DBA1489FDB@fiee.net> (raw)
Hi, is it possible to apply geometric transformations to images using MetaPost?
This is again way over my head, but I’m still trying different methods to let a ConTeXt document look more “hand-made”.
In my example*, I added frame and shadow to a photo and _distorted_ it slightly to have it look like a postcard was glued on the page (with a piece of tape). I’d like to automate and randomize that process.
I guess I could achieve something similar with ImageMagick (not with GraphicsMagick), but if it would be possible inside LMTX that would be great.
