Batch image conversion


Is there a program that will take a directory full of images and convert them all to a certain spec? I would like to be able to convert images from my camera to a different resolution so that they load faster on the web.

Check out ImageMagick and all the thing it will do.

Then put it into an executable script file such as this one.

for i in *jpg; do echo $i; convert -font helvetica -pointsize 144 -fill "#0432ef" -draw "text 600, 600 'Lazy Cat'" $i $i; done

In this case, convert is from the ImageMagick suite and this script writes a lite yellow 'Lazy Cat' across the middle of all the jpeg pictures in a directory.
