Suppose you ai images are in folder1. Set up a new directory, folder2, to hold the output images so that you do not write over the originals.
Then do
However, I fear, in hindsight, that this will not work, because I do not think it will apply the density before reading the ai files and will try to set it afterwards.
You may have to write loop over all the files in folder1, process them with convert, and write them to folder2
If your files have no spaces, you can do
The -format "%t" info: gets the filename without the suffix. See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/escape.php
This can be put into a bash shell script with arguments for density and input and output directories.
Then do
Code: Select all
cd folder1
mogrify -path path2/folder2 -format tiff -density 300 -background white -flatten -compress lzw *.aiYou may have to write loop over all the files in folder1, process them with convert, and write them to folder2
