Converting multiple vector images into JPEG

Post by damek »

This is my first post so hi everybody.

I have a folder with over 500 subfolders containing vector images (such as .ai, .ps, .cdr) and some previews in .jpeg of several vectors inside their folders. I want to create a preview of each vector inside its folder with the use of XnView or XnConvert but didn't know how to do it. When I try to import the master folder to the converting process window it only finds these .jpeg previews, is there any sort of script or sth to make it automaticaly?

yes, 'add folder' add only images not all files...
The only way is to use in xnViewMP, recursive display, select all and batch convert

Sorry for such a long delay :)

I'm not sure how to do it. I can't find the recursive display option, so when I click batch convert with all folders marked it does not add them to the input window.

In the folder tree, right click on a folder to open the context menu. There you will find "Show all files (recursive). After selecting "Show all files (recursive) all files in that folder plus its subfolders will be shown in XnView MP's browser. You can select the files and then start a batch conversion, for example.

(For displaying Vector graphics, you will need Ghostscript. Just asking myself and wondering whether Ghostscript works together with XnConvert).
