Well now that you have manga scans and ImageMagick installed, I'm guessing you want to be able to process your scans into a kindle friendly format (proper screen size, dpi, white borders trimmed, etc...) and possibly make pdfs out of the scans.
Here are some of your options:
1) All of the scan processing can be done using ImageMagick. The commands for this can be found here:
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php.
2) You could use a program I wrote that automates the ImageMagick commands:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=75628. This is what I use to get manga on my DX. It will process a lot of manga at once and it can make a pdf of each chapter automatically.
3) Another option would be to use
Mangle. If you want a pdf then you can use ImageMagick to create one from the output of Mangle. The command would be something like:
convert *.gif out.pdf
If you have any further questions about preparing manga for the Kindle, please make another thread or post in my program's or the mangle thread as this thread is only supposed to be about fitting pdf to screen height.
