AS

/K

<output filename>

Specify the output filename when converting images. By default the output filename is the same as the input filename, with the possibility of an additional suffix (with the ADDSUFFIX argument) and a different file extension if the image has been converted to a different format.

Example: Image CONVERT=jpg AS=thumbnail.jpg WIDTH=128 HEIGHT=128

CONVERT

/O

(no value)

Displays the image conversion dialog in interactive mode when no other arguments are provided.

Example: Image CONVERT

jpg

Automates the image conversion function; the converted image will be saved in JPEG format.

Example: Image CONVERT=jpg

png

The converted image will be saved in PNG format.

Example: Image ROTATE=EXIF CONVERT=png

gif

The converted image will be saved in GIF format.

Example: Image WIDTH=128 HEIGHT=128 CONVERT=gif

bmp

The converted image will be saved in BMP format.

Example: Image CONVERT=bmp

FROM

/M

<filename> ...

Specify the image file or files to operate on. Without this argument the command will operate on all currently selected files. This is the default argument for the Image command and so you do not need to specify the FROM keyword. Remember that if the filename contains a space it needs to be enclosed in quotes.

Example: Image CONVERT=png FROM C:\MyPhotos\*.jpg HERE

HERE

/S

(no value)

Write converted images to the source folder. Without this argument converted images are written to the current destination folder.

Example: Image CONVERT=bmp WIDTH=128 HEIGHT=128 ADDSUFFIX HERE

NOENLARGE

/S

(no value)

Prevents images from being enlarged if the resize operation would otherwise cause this. Selected images that are already smaller than the specified size will remain untouched.

Example: Image CONVERT=jpg WIDTH=1024 HEIGHT=768 NOENLARGE

NOREDUCE

/S

(no value)

Prevents images from being reduced in size if the resize operation would otherwise cause this. Selected images that are already larger than the specified size will remain untouched.

Example: Image CONVERT=jpg WIDTH=800 HEIGHT=600 NOREDUCE

PRESERVEASPECTRATIO

/S

(no value)

Preserve the original aspect ratio when resizing images. The output width or height will be automatically adjusted to ensure the aspect ratio is maintained. Using this switch means you can resize an image by just supplying a new width or a new height - this missing dimension will be calculated automatically.

Example: Image CONVERT=png WIDTH=1280 PRESERVEASPECTRATIO HERE

QUALITY

/K/N

<quality>

Specify the quality (1 - 100) when an image is saved in JPEG format.

Example: Image CONVERT=jpg QUALITY=10 NOLOSSLESS

ROTATE

/K

<angle>

Rotate the image the specified angle (in degrees). Positive values rotate clock-wise, negative values counter-clockwise.

Example: Image ROTATE=90 HERE REPLACE

EXIF

Uses the rotation (orientation) information stored in the images' EXIF tags to rotate the image. The effect of this is to negate the original orientation of the camera, resulting in a "right way up" image. If the selected image does not have an EXIF rotation tag this operation has no effect.

Example: Image ROTATE=EXIF HERE REPLACE

RESET

Does not actually rotate the image data, but will clear out the rotation (orientation) field from the images' EXIF tags.

Example: Image ROTATE=RESET HERE REPLACE

TO

/K

<destination path>

Specifies the destination path for converted images. Remember to enclose the path in quotes if it contains spaces. If not provided, and the HERE argument is not specified, the current destination file display will be used as the target path.

Example: Image CONVERT=jpg WIDTH=80 HEIGHT=80 TO "C:\Photos\Image Thumbnails"

WIDTH

/K/N

Resize the image to the specified width.

Example: Image WIDTH=1024 PRESERVEASPECTRATIO CONVERT=jpg
