Trim an image using PHP and GD

Submitted by zavaboy on October 6, 2007 - 4:19pm.

I was looking for a way to trim images with the GD library. So I made a function to do just that. The function, which I only naturally called imagetrim(), trims a image much like Photoshop's trim feature. Additionally, you may add padding too if desired.

So, here's the function:

<?php
// Trims an image then optionally adds padding around it.
// $im  = Image link resource
// $bg  = The background color to trim from the image
// $pad = Amount of padding to add to the trimmed image
//        (acts simlar to the "padding" CSS property: "top [right [bottom [left]]]")
function imagetrim(&$im, $bg, $pad=null){

    // Calculate padding for each side.
    if (isset($pad)){
        $pp = explode(' ', $pad);
        if (isset($pp[3])){
            $p = array((int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1], (int) $pp[2], (int) $pp[3]);
        }else if (isset($pp[2])){
            $p = array((int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1], (int) $pp[2], (int) $pp[1]);
        }else if (isset($pp[1])){
            $p = array((int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1], (int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1]);
        }else{
            $p = array_fill(0, 4, (int) $pp[0]);
        }
    }else{
        $p = array_fill(0, 4, 0);
    }

    // Get the image width and height.
    $imw = imagesx($im);
    $imh = imagesy($im);

    // Set the X variables.
    $xmin = $imw;
    $xmax = 0;

    // Start scanning for the edges.
    for ($iy=0; $iy<$imh; $iy++){
        $first = true;
        for ($ix=0; $ix<$imw; $ix++){
            $ndx = imagecolorat($im, $ix, $iy);
            if ($ndx != $bg){
                if ($xmin > $ix){ $xmin = $ix; }
                if ($xmax < $ix){ $xmax = $ix; }
                if (!isset($ymin)){ $ymin = $iy; }
                $ymax = $iy;
                if ($first){ $ix = $xmax; $first = false; }
            }
        }
    }

    // The new width and height of the image. (not including padding)
    $imw = 1+$xmax-$xmin; // Image width in pixels
    $imh = 1+$ymax-$ymin; // Image height in pixels

    // Make another image to place the trimmed version in.
    $im2 = imagecreatetruecolor($imw+$p[1]+$p[3], $imh+$p[0]+$p[2]);

    // Make the background of the new image the same as the background of the old one.
    $bg2 = imagecolorallocate($im2, ($bg >> 16) & 0xFF, ($bg >> 8) & 0xFF, $bg & 0xFF);
    imagefill($im2, 0, 0, $bg2);

    // Copy it over to the new image.
    imagecopy($im2, $im, $p[3], $p[0], $xmin, $ymin, $imw, $imh);

    // To finish up, we replace the old image which is referenced.
    $im = $im2;
}
?>

<?php $imw = 500; $imh = 500; $im = imagecreatetruecolor($imw,$imh); // Create image // Create some colors $bg = imagecolorallocate ($im,0xFF,0xFF,0x00); // Background color (yellow) $ln = imagecolorallocatealpha($im,0xFF,0x00,0x00,110); // Line color (transparent red) imagefill($im,0,0,$bg); // Generate something a little random. $r = $imh/10; $t2 = array($r,0); for ($a=0;$a<360;$a++){ $noise = rand(-$r,$r); $t1 = $t2; $t2[0] = (($r+$noise) * cos(deg2rad($a))); $t2[1] = (($r+$noise) * sin(deg2rad($a))); imageline($im, ($imw/2)+$t1[0], ($imh/2)+$t1[1], ($imw/2)+$t2[0], ($imh/2)+$t2[1], $ln); } // Padding: 1px top, 2px right, 3px bottom, 4px left //imagetrim($im,$bg,'1 2 3 4'); // Padding: 1px top, 2px right, 3px bottom, 2px left //imagetrim($im,$bg,'1 2 3'); // Padding: 1px top, 2px right, 1px bottom, 2px left //imagetrim($im,$bg,'1 2'); // Padding: 5px top, 5px right, 5px bottom, 5px left //imagetrim($im,$bg,'5'); // Padding: 0px top, 0px right, 0px bottom, 0px left imagetrim($im,$bg); // Set the header and output image. header('Content-type: image/png'); imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); ?>
