GraphicsMagick CgBI unknown critical chunk

问题

I am using GraphicsMagick and currently running into the following issue:

when executing

gm identify <filename>.png

I'm getting the following error:

gm identify: CgBI: unknown critical chunk (<filename>.png)
gm identify: Request did not return an image.

This is a png extracted from an iPhone. Though it may not contain an actual image, I do need the image info.

Tried opening it with several editors:

1. The png does open in Paint with the right height x width but as completely white.
2. The png does not open in GIMP, saying it might be corrupted
3. The png does open in Paint.net with the right height x width as a transparent image

Using the debug parameter provides the following line:

libpng-1.5.14 error: CgBI: unknown critical chunk

I'm running the latest GraphicsMagick (1.3.18).

Does anyone know what's going on, and how I will be able to get this to return the image info?

Thanks in advance.

回答1:

The PNG you are trying to read has been run through Apple's "Xcode" version of pngcrush, which creates files that aren't PNGs. I believe Apple's pngcrush also has the capability of undoing the damage and more-or-less restoring the original PNG, using the "-revert-iphone-optimizations" option, although it's not mathematically possible to restore the color channels exactly for transparent or semitransparent pixels.

set in xcode build setting this flag to NO

Remove Text Metadata From PNG Files = NO
