[Trisquel-users] Method for converting masses of photos?
Does anyone know an easy way to convert lots of jpegs to png? I've been doing one by one in GIMP, but it's very tedious and time consuming. I would like it so i can convert all the files of a folder. Thanks.

There's a suite of command-line image processing tools that does exactly what you're looking for. It's called ImageMagick, and I'm pretty sure it's installed by default in Trisquel. Open a terminal, go into the folder with the JPEGs, and run the command 'mogrify -format png *.jpg' without the quotes. Also, replace *.jpg with *.jpeg or *.JPG, or whatever the actual extension is.

for file in *.jpg; do convert $file ${file/jpg/png} done I do this all the time. You need to install ImageMagick: sudo apt-get install imagemagick Joel

Sweet! Jusst found a solution. if i right click and enter mogrify -format png *.jpg as a custom application it works. Then the next time, all i need to do is right click and select the option. highlight a bunch of images and then selecting the option converts them all!

You can also use a GUI tool called PHATCH to do mass conversions/edits to images. sudo aptitude install phatch
