Batch Resizing

Hi everyone
Help please. VERY, VERY URGENT right on deadline.
This has probably been covered before so apologies.
Is there a simple way to batch resize .jpgs, perhaps a plug in? I am not proficient enough to write a script and a plug-in I downloaded which I think can possibly do the job is a py document and I don't know what to do with it.
Any help gratefully received either on this forum or direct to ericpart@aol.com
Thanks
Eric

Batch resizing

Hi Eric,

Perhaps you can use the photoprint plugin. You will find it on the contactsheet page. Follow the link just below the pictures. At the end of that page you will find for download photoprint. It has some nice features: fixed size, crop, etc. Remember that plugin is still experimental.

David's Batch processor works well, too

I just found this plug-in at

It works really well on my 64 bit Vista using GIMP 2.6.7

Phatch

google for phatch and you'll fine an easy way.

Imagemagick ..... (in a single command)

(Yeah, I know this is a GIMP site...., but.....) On Linux: ls *.jpg | xargs -I NAME convert NAME -resize 320x320 x320-NAME will create a new copy of every file ending in .jpg in the current directory, resized by either 320 in height or 320 in width, whichever is the largest size. All the resized files will start with x320-.. As always - read the documentation! It is worth looking at the Imagemagic home page, AFAIK there is a compiled version for Windows as well. FWIW, pyrenamer does a great job of renaming many files at once, something I often need to do with resized images. Hope this helps Casper
