Write to multiple destination paths

Hello,

Is there a way to create one image using convert.exe, in multiple destinations?

I am using the latest build, running through a batch script on Windows 7.

Thanks for your help.

You can write an output almost anywhere in the command line:

Code: Select all

convert in.png {blah blah} -write a.png -write b.jp2 -write c.tiff d.jpg
Is that what you want?

ok, so i tried the above mentioned suggestion.

this is the code:

%imageMagickPath%\convert.exe -background blue -font C:\Windows\Fonts\ebrimabd.ttf -fill white -strokewidth 2 -stroke black -pointsize 40 -size 640X480 -gravity South caption:"%%o\n%%p" -write "%backUpDestPathUNC%\DSC00%%q.jpg" -write "%cardDestPath%\DSC00%%q.jpg"

the problem may be that i am using the "caption:" sub command.

what happens is that the first -write command works. while the second returns the error:

convert.exe: option requires an argument `-write' @ error/convert/ConvertImage Command/3085.

the last output should not have -write before it. Or add null: to the end of the command
