          set the expected maximum output size in bytes

      --width <WIDTH>
          width of the output image, if height is not set will preserve aspect ratio

      --height <HEIGHT>
          height of the output image, if width is not set will preserve aspect ratio

      --long-edge <LONG_EDGE>
          sets the size of the longest edge of the image

      --short-edge <SHORT_EDGE>
          sets the size of the shortest edge of the image

  -o, --output <OUTPUT>
          output folder

      --same-folder-as-input
