Well it was worth the shot, but this has officially gone beyond the "is the juice worth the squeeze" test. Thank you for all the great help.

Thank you for the help Fred. in the code below, it does remove the meta. and also removed the Clipping paths from the PSD's. is there an easy way to retain that info? list=`ls | egrep ".psd"` for img in $list; do echo "$img" magick $img \ \( -clone 0 -alpha off -fill black -colorize 75 ...

Thanks Fred. i ended up playing i little to get here, to add a little layer overlay to help make it clear magick $img \ \( -clone 0 -alpha off -fill black -colorize 75% \) \ \( -clone 0 -alpha transparent -gravity center -pointsize 900 \ -fill red -annotate +0+20 "MANI" \) \ \( -clone 1--1 -flatten ...

Thanks this is a great working start, the only issue i see is that the changes aren't visible in bridge or in preview, so you can't see any update till you open the image. How do you get IM to regenerate the thumbnails?

Hi Fred, the 2nd works well. is this something i can batch a whole directory of files out as some side shell script by telling image magick where images will be, and where i want them placed?

Hi fred, here's some sample PSD's. i read more into it, i wonder if -draw is a better option to simply put a visual marker in my PSD files. its just something so retouchers don't grab these while they are out with someone getting retouched. here is a wetrasnefer of files to view. https://we.tl/t ...

Do your two PSD files have multiple layers or just one layer. You can composite the flattened PSD with each other. But I don't think you can composite multi-layer PSD files in ImageMagick. composite -gravity center /Users/flieckb/Desktop/MANI.psd /Users/flieckb/Desktop/Out/ -format psd "*.psd" This ...

Then this won't work if i can't composite on multi layer files. let me see if its easier to just add a text layer.

i have the following script, but i don't seem to understand why its not working. i CD into a directory with hundreds of PSD's and i need to simply over lay that one image and save them back out to a different directory, keeping them as layered PSDs. when i run it as below, it simply takes the last ...

ahh thank you that makes sense. i could convert one file, but it it would change the name to "*.jpg" and stop. the last bit of code seems to work great. i'll have to pick that apart more and play with it. thank you very much.

Hi all, i'm super noob at IM, and i'm just trying to convert a directory of images. cd /Users/flieckb/Desktop/from list=`ls *.tif` echo "$list" for img in $list; do convert "$img" jpg "/Users/flieckb/Desktop/to/$img" done The above code simply copys the TIFF's to the 2nd directory without actually ...
