That would be really useful when you must decide which pic can make it into a publication based on tech specs such as - filename - x-y resolution - x-y size at 4 resolutions (user definable) : 72-96-225-300 dpi - total area expressed in square inches and square centimeters for each 4 resolutions - image type - color space - bit depth - weight of image - more... The script could give the people working on a project a very rapid overview of the quality of the images they intend to use, technically wise. This could be ideally sorted by a user definable field, depending on what suits better the needs for screening out pics. For instance, displaying the pics sorted by ?Total area at 300 dpi? would allow to immediately flag images that are suitable or not for a given need. Displaying them in order of ?image type? would allow to flag at a glance if some GIFs made it into the image folder, or some other unsuitable image type, etc. Another approach would be to have the pics imported by their name in alphabetical order as a visual reference and from that file an export to csv would allow all sorts of reports to be produced in a breeze. Finding the images that don?t suit the needs would be easy for the users. Transmitting this valuable info to the various people working on a project would then be a breeze. Export to PDF and a Calc sheet and voil?. No more discussions about the usability of an image at a desired size.
