Image batch converter program

hi. i have a lot of images to upload for online gallery. total space and probably and more later, 1.1GB, which of them each photo is around 1, something MB.
i use archlinux. is there any batch converter program which gives me the option to convert many images together? if not on linux perhaps on windows?
ty in advanced

Yeah, I clicked here to post about mogrify.
It's very easy once you get a handle on what you want it to do (and work out the command), and if you do the same conversion often it is actually faster (for you) than having to click through some interface to select a batch of images and tell some gui-based application to process them.
I'm not one of these anti-gui guys, but mogrify is remarkably useful and convenient.
Here is some good info:

How open images from other programs & convert to tiff?

I am new to digital photography. I usually take 2 to 3 MB images with my Canon Rebel XT and use iPhoto as my basic program to organize images, create albums, and do very basic editing. I'm running on a G4 Powerbook with OS10.3. I expect to upgrade to iPhoto6 soon. I also use Canon's Image Browser (because it does a better job of compression for emailing that my present iPhoto) and an abbreviated version of ArcSoft PhotoStudio which came bundled with my Canon and has editing tools similar to Adobe Photoshop Elements.
So far I usually use iPhoto's "Preferences/Open in Other" command when I want to open one or more selected images in one of the other programs. I have not found any easy way to locate an image while working in ImageBrowser or PhotoStudio, because iPhoto assigns folder numbers by date, so I'd have to know in which of many numbered folders to look. Placing images into iPhoto albums does not help because while the album names appear in these program's tree view they appear unable to link to them. Canon refuses to answer questions relating to iPhoto and referred me to ArcSoft for any questions about PhotoStudio. ArcSoft says they provide no support for programs bundled with hardware. Typical. What I'd like to know is:
1. Is there any easy way to locate iPhoto images while I'm in one of these other programs?
2. Is there any way to copy an entire album from iPhoto to one of these other programs?
3. I've attended two different digital photo classes in which instructors felt it desirable to convert jpegs to tiffs. One felt it was necessary to reduce the loss of pixels during editing, and the other does it for any image he plans to print, claiming it improves print quality. They recommended getting a special conversion program. Based on responses here to the topic: "Want to save jpeg file as tiff before making edits to photos", others feel that for most amateurs like me this is a minor issue, especially with iPhoto. Testing this I have found, as Kevin Wolfe1 says Feb 12, that compression of a jpeg appears to occur primarily on the first edit and does not sognificantly degrade the image. The programs I mention above appear able to save an edited jpeg as a tiff if desired, but I've noticed also that iPhoto's Export command includes the option to export a jpeg (to desktop or another folder) as a tiff. When I tried this, it did create a file identified as .tif, and I can drag that file back into the iPhoto Library where it remains named as a .tif, and according to iPhoto, this file contains about 5 times the MBs the original jpeg had. What I'm curious to know is, is that a true tiff file or is iPhoto kidding me?
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Typical. What I'd like to know is:
1. Is there any easy way to locate iPhoto images
while I'm in one of these other programs?
In iPhoto 06 you have the option to NOT move imported image file in to the iPhoto library. So they images stay in the place where you put them. With this option the iPhoto library only contains "pointers".
2. Is there any way to copy an entire album from
iPhoto to one of these other programs?
Can't you open an album, select all the images then then use "export"
3. I've attended two different digital photo classes
in which instructors felt it desirable to convert
jpegs to tiffs.
If you are worried about this then you should be shooting RAW format. In your case the camera is doing the JPG conversion and the "damage" is unrecoverable.
iPhoto 6 and Tigeer (10.4.x) has a little bit better supportfor raw format images i yu are worried about something that makes such a small difference then you should be woried about the stuf that makes a large difference first.
You might want to concider this workflow:
1) use Canon software to download files from camera
2) use Canon software to convert to TIFF
3) Import TIFF to iPhoto (using option to NOT consolidate library
4) specify arcedit, PS or Gimp as your external editor
Others might want to lt iPhoto do the import and raw conversion but you said you wanted thr photos to be stored outside of iPhoto's library system you you can find them with out having to do an export.

Can I batch convert images in a folder hierarchy?

I can't seem to be able to create an Action or Droplet in Photoshop CS5 that will batch convert images in situ in a hierarchy of folders. In the Photoshop Actions you have to specify an explicit destination, and there's no "save back to the same place" option that I can find.
I used to be able to do this with ImageReady CS2, but Tiger is going to kill that. Help!

If you want to give it a try, paste the following text into a new file in ExtendScript Toolkit (part of Photoshop’s installation, Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities/ExtendScript Toolkit CS4 or /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities-CS5/ExtendScript Toolkit CS5) and save it as a jsx-file into Photoshop’s Presets/Scripts-folder.
After restarting Photoshop the Script should be available under File > Scripts and can be assigned a Keyboard Shortcut directly, recorded into an Action, (in CS4 and CS5) be used in a Configurator-Panel or started from ExtendScript Toolkit directly.
// 2011, use it at your own risk;
#target photoshop
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
// get document-path and -name; thanks to xbytor;
     var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
     var myDocName = myDocument.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
     var myPath = myDocument.path;
// save for web options;
     var webOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
     webOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.COMPUSERVEGIF;
     webOptions.optimized = true;
     webOptions.colorReduction = ColorReductionType.ADAPTIVE;
     webOptions.dither = Dither.NONE;
     webOptions.quality = 100;
     webOptions.includeProfile = true;
     webOptions.matteColor = new RGBColor();
     webOptions.matteColor.red = 255;
     webOptions.matteColor.green = 255;
     webOptions.matteColor.blue = 255;
// export;
     myDocument.exportDocument(new File(myPath+"/"+myDocName+".gif"), ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, webOptions);
Edit:
The Script could be recorded into an Action.
It would also be possible to create a Script that offers a dialog for File- or Folder-selection and subsequently operates on all selected/contained files of specified formats, but that would be a different approach from the Droplet.

How to batch convert RGB images to CMYK

Hello,
Can anyone explain in a step-by-step way how to batch-convert many RGB images to CMYK?
Thanks in advance

If you do want to use Photoshop for the bact conversion there are a few ways, including Batch and Image Procesor under the File>Automate or File>Scripts of PS.
However, my preference is to use Russell Brown's script: Image Processsor Pro, via Bridge:
http://www.russellbrown.com/scripts.html
As similar one is Picture Processor:
http://www.scriptsrus.talktalk.net/
Both allow you to do multiple conversions simultaneously, to different sizes and file types, and running actions before or after the conversions.

Using Aperture to batch convert images from tiff to jpeg

Hi there
My first question - here goes:
I wish to batch convert several thousand tiffs (of various sizes) to a standardised jpeg (A4 @ 300dpi). I'm looking for software to automate this process as much as possible; ideally, it would search designated folders and place the new jpegs in a (matching) new folder structure.
Would Aperture be suitable for this, or should I consider Adobe Lightroom (or other)?
Many thanks
BR

No filters.
Solution I used was to create new project. Copy images to it. Delete old project.
Aperture would not let me copy images from old albums to old project.

How to batch convert pdf to jpgs, crop to trim and save?

I'm trying to figure out how to take a couple of hundred PDFs, Crop them to trim, then convert them all to JPGs using any of the adobe programs.
In bridge I was able to Batch convert all the PDFs to JPGs but it wouldn't crop them to the trim also...
I thought I could use the Photoshop Image Processor to batch action crop and save them again but I always get one of two errors... "There were no source files that could be opened by Photoshop." or "Please Specify a destination folder."
I don't know why this is coming up since I have it selecting the folders with the JPGs that I converted in Bridge and saving to another folder..
Does anyone know if I can do all of this at once? Or how I can somehow get this to work so that II don't have to open,crop and save for each individual file?

Corel's WP has not / does not use anything of Adobe's to create PDFs.
With Acrobat installed you can "file - print" WP files to the Adobe PDF virtual printer that is installed with Acrobat.
Perhaps an OS based "batch" printer job would be possible. Something for you to look into.
As well, if you have WP installed there may be something WP can do.
To learn of such you'd want to visit Corel's WP customer support.

How do I batch convert .ai to .jpg or .png in Bridge CC 2014?

I have found where you could "Export" them out in older versions of Bridge but no "Export" function exist in CC 2014.

You could do it like this: http://www.santoshgs.com/blog/189/how-to-batch-convert-png-to-jpeg-using-photoshop-cs2/
But can I be honest? I'd do that with a more efficient and far faster conversion utility like IrfanView. Photoshop is incredibly slow for this type of work. For example, I did a quick test to demonstrate the difference in performance:
folder with 10 images in jpg format, 5600px by 5600px. Simple jpg to png batch.
Photoshop: over six minutes.
IrfanView: one minute and 40 seconds.
That's a rather big difference - and with large numbers of images I just do not have the time to wait for Photoshop to finish the job. It's too slow.
Another issue is that during the conversion process Photoshop cannot be used - while with a simple conversion utility you can leave it running in the background, and continue to use PS for other work if required. This matters if you have hundreds of images to convert.
Btw, Irfanview (windows only) is free to download @ http://www.irfanview.com/
The batch processing you can find under File-->Batch Conversion <b>
ImageMagick is also free and open source. It is a command line tool, and easy to use for conversions.Will also work on a mac. But it is much slower than IrfanView, a tad faster than PS.

I have downloaded the converter program and the conversion from PDF to Word is terrible. Is there a better solution or setting?

I am trying to convert a PDF to Word without re-typing. I downloaded the converter program onto my MAC but the conversion was terrible. Unusable. Is there a better way. I also have a PC so I could try that as well if would make any difference.

"Scanned" Scanned anything starts you with an image / picture of the page content that was on the source paper.
There is no "renderable" text. OCR can provide an output of text that can be exported. Without that all that is exported is the image.
As to OCR, Acrobat's ClearScan lends itself to repurpose via the export process.
Regardless, anything sourced from a scanner output is the "pig's ear" and that'll not yield the "silk purse".
Export is dictated by the input (GIGO). Export output identifies input quality.
As a C Student stated a Word file (being well-built helps) that sourced the PDF will yield workable export back to Word.
PDF's sourced for FrameMaker export rather nicely.
For optimal export always start with a well-formed Tagged PDF (ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant).
Two core design considerations of tagged PDF are (1) support Accessible PDF and (2) support export (repurpose) of PDF content.

Best WMA to MP3 batch converter for MacBook Pro

Half of the music that I've collected over the years, and now transferred onto my new MacBook Pro, is in the WMA format.
I am looking for a program that can batch convert ALL of these files to MP3, putting the MP3s in the same folders as the WMA files currently are, and then I will delete the WMA files.
Is there any program that can help me with this? At the moment I can only listen to half of my songs in iTunes!
Many thanks

EasyWMA is a popular one for the Mac. Switch can also do it.
Or, if you happen to have access to a PC, iTunes for Windows can convert WMA to MP3, after which you can bring the MP3 files to your Mac on a flash drive..
then I will delete the WMA files.
It's about time.
Steve - one additional note: Make sure your files are normal unprotected WMA files, since protected WMA cannot be converted. Protected WMAs could have happened if you ever ripped a CD using the default settings of Windows Media Player, or if you ever bought tracks from one of the many (now-defunct) online stores that sold songs in protected WMA format.

Do images imported to Keynote retain their previous color profile? In other words, if the Keynote presentation will be shown using an sRGB profile projector, should the images be converted to sRGB prior to importing?

Do images imported to Keynote retain their previous color profile? In other words, if the Keynote presentation will be shown using an sRGB profile projector, should the images be converted to sRGB prior to importing or can they be batch adjusted in Keynote?

While I feel your comment doesn't directly address my question, why I am worrying is this.
This presentation is to a camera club. Color is important. Images shown in meetings are projected by an sRGB color profile projector. Most serious photographers us a color profile with a bigger space than sRGB (typically RGB1998). If you project an RGB1998 image on an sRGB projector the colors go to crap. More precisely they become dull and lifeless. Thus, I am trying to determine whether I need to convert the images I plan to put into my Keynote to sRGB and boost the saturation PRIOR to importing them or whether Keynote has a way to do this as part of the software.

Is there as easy way of batch converting RGB files to CMYK in OS Lion?

Is there as easy way of batch converting RGB files to CMYK in OS Lion?
I was using a photoshop droplet on my desktop but this no longer works due to the fact it requires rosetta support.
Thx P

From another forum after googling:
Your computer came with everything you need, because ColorSync can do that and Apple provided AppleScripts for it. Go to your Applications folder and look for the AppleScript folder. Double click on the 'Example Scripts' alias and then open the ColorSync scripts. Drag and drop your images on the the 'Match to CMYK' script.
You can open AppleScript Editor from Launchpad (it's in Utilities). Go to Help to Open Example Scripts Folder. In the ColorSync folder is a Match application. Double click to make it run.
Now you know what it does you may need to change it for batch conversion.
Go to AppleScript Editor and open what you've just found. And I'm sorry that's as far as my knowledge goes, hope some one can fill in the gaps.
Or you may just want to look at something like Graphic Converter?
