more detailed documentation

Post by xntest »

Hello

Is there a more detailed documentation for nconvert anywere?


I want to resize some picture with nconvert in a batch but I do not find information about -c and -q.


It would be nice to see some examples with a short description.

Hello

-q is OK for my understanding but I do not understand the funktion of -c.

I do not use -c at the moment and it works fine. Can I optimize resizing with -c?

Unlike most file formats, the file formats PDF and TIFF allow for using various compression types (RLE, LZW, ...). To set a specific compression type you use the -c parameter. -c is only needed if your output files are saved as PDF or TIFF.
