## TL;DR
```sh
# Scale images to 50% its original size.
magick convert -adaptive-resize '50%' 'in.jpg' 'out.jpg'
# Create GIFs from single images.
magick *.jpg 'out.gif'
# Convert N images into individual PDF documents.
magick *.jpg +adjoin 'page-%d.pdf'
# Convert N images into pages of a single PDF document.
magick *.png 'out.pdf'
# Calculate the percentage of *similarity* between 2 images.
# Avoid saving the diff.
magick compare -metric 'NCC' 'in_1.jpg' 'in_2.jpg' NULL:
# Output only the differences between 2 images.
magick compare -compose 'src' -fuzz '5%' 'in_1.jpg' 'in_2.jpg' 'diff.jpg'
```
