I can tell you how to batch convert files to a particular resolution. Save this batch program and run to change images to 600 pixels wide jpeg quality 85. It will take all files you list on the command line. #!/bin/bash for input in $@ do base=`echo $input | sed 's/\(.*\)\..*$/\1/'` ## echo "SUF" $SUF "base" $base suffix="600.jpg" /usr/bin/convert $input -resize 600x -quality 85 $base$suffix done -- Paul E.
