Rename files *.jpeg to *.jpg

Hi,
I m looking for a script that can detect if entering files extension is *.jpeg   then rename it to *.jpg
if its another extension, do nothing
Could it be possible with a photoshop script ?

Hi Try this..!!!!
var inputFolder = Folder ( ['/c/temp/'] );
var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles('*.jpeg');
for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
    var Filename = fileList[i].name
    var newFilename = Filename.replace ('.jpeg', '.jpg')
    var fileObj = File ( inputFolder+'/'+Filename)
    var newfile = fileObj.copy (inputFolder+"/"+newFilename)
    fileList[i].remove()
No need for photoshop to do this. this works well in all app.

  • How to embed/show an image file (.jpeg or .jpg or .png) into a Oracle 10g report file (.rdf)

    Hi All,
    Morning , have an urgent requirement and need some guidance regards this.
    we are currently having an existing Oracle 10g reports file (.rdf)  lets say with name : Testing1.rdf .
    The report output is getting generated in a pdf format . it opens up in a pdf format..
    Now we want to embed an image file lets say : (logo.jpeg or logo.gif  ) into the report output..at run time the image from the image file should show up in the report output.
    Could someone please help as to how this could be achieved..and what approach we could follow for this...
    with regards
    Thanks as always !!

    Hi All,
    Morning ...just a follow up question to this original post : embedding the image files at runtime into an Oracle Report..
    We were able to achieve this by entering the folder location where the image files are place on the server in the REPORTS_PATH env variable in the report.sh file.
    Then we update this filename like file1.jpg into a table and from there we fetch this in the Oracle Reports data model directly.
    for The layout field we select the option as Image.
    All this works fine..
    Issue : The resolution of the embedded image in the generated report output is very low ...means the image appears there but it is not very clearly visible ..is there any way we could improve the IMAGE RESOLUTION in the report output....?????
    With regards

  • After renaming a file extention from .jpeg to .jpg I can no longer type ...

    After renaming a file extention from .jpeg to .jpg I can no longer type in any of the finder related editable fields/boxes. I can still type in my open applications fields.
    This problem also happens when I happen to find a file that has been named, for instance, 2008jpg. When I add the period to have the file read correctly as 2008.jpg, a warning box appears asking - {*Are you sure you want to change the extention from ".jpeg" to ".jpg"?* If you make this change, your document may open in a different application.} Two radio buttons are available within this warning box that read - 1 - {Use .jpg}(it is not color coded, which means it must be selected manually. - 2 - {Keep .jpeg}(it is colored w/my Blue highlight color, which means it will be selected if the Enter Key is used.
    The warning box does Not appear if I remove the period from a file and not again when i re-add the period to that same file.
    After trying to make these types of edits to the name of any file, with any of the various extentions available for files in our digital world, I usually get an anomaly where myability to type in the Finder ceases to be a possibility.
    I have found that I can Force Quit the Finder for a quick fix, but, I'm not sure that this Typing problem should have to be dealt with at all by this quick fix. Is this an issue with the Indexing in Spotlight, which seems to be giving many users problems?

    I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
    As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
    I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
    Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
    TIA

  • Using the value "Image/*" for the accept attribute of the HTML input Element, how can I add .pdf to the array of preconfigured file types (.jpe, .jpg, .jpeg, .?

    On a form, using the value "image/*" for the accept attribute of the HTML input Element, how can I add .pdf to the array of pre-configured file types (.jpe, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, .bmp, .ico, .svg, .svgz, .tif, .tiff, .ai, .drw, .pct, .psp, .xcf, .psd, .raw)?
    Say I wanted to add .gif, .jfif or .ico. I find this array limited, how can I add types to image?
    <input type="file" name="file" accept="image/*" id="file" />
    mimeTypes.rdf does not seem to allow this.

    ''mimeTypes.rdf'' has nothing to do with web development. It's a file that stores your file handling preferences (e.g. if you want ZIP files automatically saved or opened).
    You can't change the file types of the pre-defined content specifiers (audio/*, video/*, image/*), but you can specify additional MIME types. To add PDF to your above example,
    <pre><nowiki><input type="file" name="file" accept="image/*,application/pdf" id="file" /></nowiki></pre>

  • Is it possible to ignore and not import JPG files when a JPG and raw file of the same name exist?

    Is it possible to ignore JPG files on import? I shoot raw + JPG and see no reason to keep the JPGs; I shoot JPG primarily as a backup (I back all the JPGs up online to my smugmug account then delete them before importing the raw files), but they're also occasionally handy if one wants to get a quick print in the field. I know that one can set a preference to "Treat JPEG Files Next to Raw Files As Separate Photos", but even then they still are imported.
    As an example, say I have this scenario (not on DSLRS, but on pNs cameras, sometimes a JPG but not raw is captured - I suspect this has to do with how the buffer is filling) with these files on a memory card:
    IMG_0001.JPG
    IMG_0001.CR2
    IMG_0002.JPG
    IMG_0003.JPG
    IMG_0003.CR2
    When I import pictures from this folder, I'd like 2 CR2 files and 1 JPG to be imported. I'm even willing to copy the relevant files and drag and drop them onto LR's Library module. But even if I do that, all five files get imported. Thanks!

    For this typical example 98% of the image files are transferred while LR is building previews, which is exactly what I was suggesting be avoided.
    No, I don't believe that's correct. As I said in my previous post, Lightroom's Import is a two-stage process.....first copy the files from the card, then when that is finished, render whatever previews have been requested.
    AFAIK there is nothing unusual about my system, Lightroom has always imported in this two-stage way as far back as I can remember. Based on this I see no 'safety' benefit from copying files first outside Lightroom, then using an ADD import process. On the contrary, as this takes away the possibility of using the "Second Copy on Import" option, as well as having to manually setup import folders, I see nothing but downside from that approach.
    Mea culpa, Jim is correct! I checked my Windows 7 system with LR4.2 and I monitored the 'Destination folder' during an import direct from memory card to hard drive. 'Copy and import' showed in the progress bar until all image files were visible using Windows Explorer in the 'Destination folder.' Only after all files had transferred did the progress bar change to ‘Render 1:1 Previews.’ I started using LR1.0 on a Pentium 3 single-core system with Windows XP 32 bit, which I think is when I made this observation. Regardless, it is clear that LR4.2 is using a two-step import process. Thanks Jim for being persistent!
    It still begs the question why some people are experiencing very slow imports, damaged image files, and other related import problems from memory cards? My guess (and it's only a guess) is that they have 1) 'Rename Files,' 2) 'Automatically write changes into XMP,' or 3) 'Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF and PSD files' checked in LR preferences. It would be a good idea for anyone experiencing import issues to try an import with these three (3) options unselected.
    My apologies to the OP DBarman for going off topic. Hopefully the extra information and observations are helpful.

  • Renaming Files In 2-Number-Steps ... how to? (w. or w/o Automator)

    Dear all,
    I have Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10 and a question: I have a 2-pages-per-sheet-PDF-document. I exported the file as single .jpgs in my Adobe Acrobat 11 program. Now I have 10 sheets (20 pages) as jpg. I want to batch crop them with Photo Batch for Mac which is not my problem. I now have 10 left pages (1-3-5-7-9-...) and 10 right pages (2-4-6-8-...).
    I made the left - hand - pages first, they are now 001.jpg, 002.jpg, 003.jpg etc.
    I thence made the right - hand - pages, they are now 011.jpg, 012.jpg, 013.jpg, etc.
    Now I could rearrange everything in one single PDF with 20 pages / 20 sheets, but then I had to manually sort everything in the right way. I need help for the following:
    How can I batch rename a heap of files to odd numbers in ascending order?
    How can I batch rename a heap of files to even numbers in ascending order?
    Then I could just hit the merge button in Acrobat and did not have to sort everything in Adobe :-)
    Thanks for help!

    Hi,
    Use this AppleScript to rename JPEG's files:
    set tFolder to choose folder with prompt "Select the folder which contains JPEG's file"
    tell application "Finder"
        set jpegs to document files of tFolder whose name extension is "jpg"
        set tc to (count jpegs) div 2
        set tmpF to make new folder at tFolder
        set rJpegs to move items (tc + 1) thru -1 of jpegs to tmpF -- move  right - hand - pages to new folder ( to avoid name conflict when renaming)
        set j to (tc * 2) - 1
        repeat with i from tc to 2 by -1 -- rename left, skip the first item because the name of the first JPEG is OK
            set name of item i of jpegs to (text -3 thru -1 of ("00" & j)) & ".jpg"
            set j to j - 2
        end repeat
        set j to 2
        repeat with i from 1 to (tc - 1) -- rename right, skip the last item because the name of the last JPEG is OK
            set name of item i of rJpegs to (text -3 thru -1 of ("00" & j)) & ".jpg"
            set j to j + 2

  • Need a script to do the following... rename files based on folder name...

    Hi. Macophile just starting to tread the waters of Applescript, trying to use Automator but don't think it will do what I need.
    I have many images stored with-in folders that I would like to extrapolate a given number of characters from the folder name and Add Text to the files within those given folders.
    Basically...
    Folder name is C00100_Descriptive
    Files within folder are just Descriptive_01, Descriptive_02
    Would like to make all files within a given folder take the first 7 characters from the folder and Add that text to all files and files within subfolders of that folder to make the resulting files shown as...
    C00100Descriptive01
    C00100Descriptive02
    Along with this I would also like to incorporate into the script, an added step to create Thumbnail jpegs of the image files in a Subfolder under C00100_Descriptive folder.
    I can see how to do that in automator but not specifying parameters such as taking a certain number of characters from the folder the file resides in and adding that selected text to the files.
    Ideally I would like a droplet or something that I could take a bunch of folders and drop them on the droplet to perform these actions.
    Any advice, help or guidance would be really helpful! Thanks in advance.

  • Export InDesign pages in jpeg, then rename the jpeg automatically.

    How to rename separated jpeg files automatically ?
    Exemple of my InDesign document :
    Page 1 :
         Product #26356
    Page 2 :
         Product #920009
    Page 3 :
       Product #910573
    I need to export them in jpeg after for a technical reason. But, how to rename the jpg with the product #, without writing them one by one ?

    I think a script would suit you best.
    You could InDesign apply the Product code via the Text Variables.
    And I think a clever scripter could use that variable to name your jpgs.
    There is the Batch Convert script http://www.kahrel.plus.com/indesign/batch_convert.html
    It's free - and it will convert your InDesign documents to JPEG.
    But there is the additional "Run Script" and I think it might be possible to do it somehow.

  • Batch rename files on the server?

    Can someone explain how to batch rename files on the server ?
    I have 1000 rows each containing these fields
    id (unique key)
    productCode
    filename1
    filename2
    For every row I need to rename the following fields:
    Rename [filename1] to [productCode]_[id]_1
    Rename [filename2] to [productCode]_[id]_2
    also I need to rename the actual file on the server using the above scheme
    Can someone show me the way ? I'm a little rusty with ColdFusion

    So far I've got everything working apart from CFFILE which works only if it finds a corresponding jpeg file on the server. In other words it works perfectly until row 20 of the database because the filename contained in the field doesn't have a matching jpeg file on the server, so CFFILE fails like this...
    Attribute validation error for tag CFFILE.
    The value of the attribute source, which is currently C:\images\DSCN1293.JPG, is invalid.
    The error occurred in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\link\htdocs\old_apps\psp\updater.cfm: line 63
    61 :                    action = "rename"
    62 :                    source = #my_source1#
    63 :                    destination = #my_destination1#>
    is there a way to carry on looping through the remaining rows and ignore the above fail ?

  • Sedname - Batch rename files using sed

    Renaming files using sed is nothing new, but this script makes the process a little more friendly and adds a few features, including insertion of sequential numbers and a simulation mode.  The output of any find command can also be piped through sedname.
    sedname version 1.0.0
    Batch-renames files using a sed script
    Usage: sedname [OPTIONS] SEDSCRIPT FILE ...
    Usage: find [...] | sedname [OPTIONS] SEDSCRIPT
    Example: sedname 's/\(.*\)\.jpg/\1.jpeg/' *.jpg
    Example: find /mypics | sedname 's/\(.*\)\.jpg/\1.jpeg/'
    OPTIONS:
    --sim simulate only
    --dir rename directories too
    Use #D to insert a number with D digits forming a unique filename
    Example: sedname 's/thisname.*/thatname#3/' *
    ( changes thisname* to thatname001, thatname002, ... )
    Use #0 in replacement name to insert a number if needed
    Example: sedname 's/thisname.*/thatname#0/' *
    ( changes thisname* to thatname, thatname1, thatname2, ... )

    What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing."   I am in the process of importing photos from iPhoto (don't really know what I'm doing....) and when I look at one of the imported photos that message pops up.  I know what "DSC_0088.jpg" is.  I don't know what it means that the file is "missing".

    CASpyr,
    Thank you so much for your reply.  I have a couple of bigger issues that I am dealing with: too many photos on my laptop: 40,000! (Of course I have to throw away many of them, but that is time consuming). I have a MacBook Pro and have primarily used IPhoto. I have recently purchased 2 external drives and have transferred my photos to those, but I need a basic education about how photos are stored, copied, etc.  I have recently been told that iPhoto only shows and deals with jpegs, not RAW.  About 1/3 of my photos are RAW, so I purchased Lightroom, so I could do more with those RAW photos.  I have been told by my local Mac store that I need to delete most of my photos from iPhoto, because it's causing problems.  I am reluctant to do so until I am sure that all of the keywords, descriptions and editing I have done to these photos is not lost when deleted from iPhoto. I just watched a tutorial about importing to Lightroom and got out of it that I needed to copy photos from iPhoto to a file on my desktop and then copy to Lightroom.  I did that, it seemed to work.  Then (because of my storage/memory issues) I deleted the photos (just a few as an experiment) from that desktop file.  I'm guessing that is why Lightroom doesn't recognize the the photos.  It seems that (learned from another tutorial) that one uses "Add" , Lightroom is only connecting to the source of the photo, not  actually copying it to the program.  Sounds like I need to use the "Move" feature instead.  My ultimate goal is to store the photos on the 2 external drives and eliminate most of them from my lapop.  So my basic questions have to do with what data (metadata??) is copied from iPhoto to an external drive (RAW???) and what isn't copied. Basic understanding issues,obviously….  I hope this isn't too much to ask.  If you can recommend a book or resource that can explain those basic issues to me I'd appreciate it.  I just got back from a trip and I can't download my new photos until I manage the rest!
    Thanks,
    Nancy

  • Why can't i save an edited .raw file as a .jpg

    I am using PSE 10 and with other catalogs i had no problem of editing my .raw files (6.7version) and then opening them and after further editing doing a "save as" and saving it as a .jpg file in a version set.
    now I am working with another set of picture files and when i try to save the final edited it suggests:
    ed-1.psd and the drop down menue also lists: psd, pdd, pse, .raw, png and TIFF.(there are no layers in the file)
    search of FAQ was unsuccessful. I have avague recollection of having this similar problem years ago with other earlier versions of PSE but can't remember the solution. This is my first instance of this problem. Other info that may help is i believe this is a "converted catalog" from PSE 8. I am running on WIN 7 Prof, 64 bit
    Appreciate any help
    Dan Y
    I went back to a previous different catalog>same computer, same PSE10 and selected a previous version set consisting of the original >raw file and the saved edited file ed-1.jpg and selected the original .raw file, opened full edit, it opens in ARW 6.7 as before, then opened the file in the PSE10 editor and tried to save as a .jpg ( which i obviously did in the last few days at most)(no changes made to computer or programs) and it WOULD NOT OPEN AS A .jpg AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
    HOPE THIS HELPS

      You are possibly working with a 16 bit image. Before clicking the Open Image button in the camera raw dialog change the drop down to 8 bit and you should then be able to save as jpeg.

  • Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text.  I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard.  What is the remedy for this.  If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

    I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
    If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

  • Using Automator to Rename Files

    I can't figure out how to rename files so that the number in the name is in parentheses. For example Dog 1.jpg should be changed to Dog (1).jpg. How can I accomplish this in Automator?

    ok. the following should work. paste it into AppleScript Editor. select the files you want to rename in finder and press "run" in script editor. you might want to test it on a small number of files first.
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
    font-size: 10px;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    width: 720px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #ADD8E6;
    overflow: auto;"
    title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
    tell application "Finder"
    set selected_items to selection
    repeat with this_item in selected_items
    set current_name to name of this_item as text
    set current_extension to name extension of this_item
    set length_extension to length of current_extension
    set name_no_ext to text 1 thru (-length_extension - 2) of current_name
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to " "
    if (number of text items of name_no_ext > 1) then
    set z to last text item of name_no_ext --get the number at the end of the name before the extension
    set name of this_item to do shell script "echo " & quoted form of current_name & "|sed 's/" & z & "." & current_extension & "/(" & z & ")." & current_extension & "/'"
    end if
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
    end repeat
    end tell</pre>

  • RAW  file converting to jpg?

    How to I convert a RAW file to a JPG format without opening the RAW file in ACR?
    Richard Cooper

    Colin, I started shooting RAW very near the beginning of my digital experience, way back in 2002 (!). Back then, I simply ran them through the Canon converter with no adjustments; ACR wasn't an option in Elements at the time. However, I did save all those RAW originals, and, on occasion, I've gone back to some of them, adjusted them with ACR and Elements, and wound up with a better edited photo.
    On the other hand, the ones I took in JPEG before discovering RAW....they are what they are, permanently blown highlights and all.
    Disk space, DVD's and even CF cards (1 GB are now $50 in some US stores) are so attractively priced now that I don't even think twice about whether or not to shoot in RAW. The camera is set on that 24/7.
    Just one person's approach...
