This will allow you to batch convert images as well, might be another solution if PhotoResize doesn't work for you.
This option worked. I hope it still works when I get to work on Wednesday.

The images are coming from an artist. Autodesk Maya is one of the 3D programs I use at work.

Hi Deb, That is because the script JRL wrote is only looking for *.jpg files to re-save as *.jpeg files. Your now talking about a png file. Is there more than one file type? There are no PNG files in the folder, which is why it's weird that the error is coming up. I don't know how I can mess up the...

at my job we fix them, so the source doesn't really matter. Same Renaming it in the explorer and then opening it in Paint would be kind of backwards. It's not a better process than the current one. This was purely to see if it needs to be a *.jpeg extension or if its just a way of telling mspaint t...

Hmmm, one more quick question. Are the files larger than the desktop on the computer you're displaying them on? I'm wondering if we could create a dialog, display the image in the dialog then do a Macro Scheduler ScreenCapture> and save the result to a jpg. Then rename the Macro Scheduler file to ....

I don't think there is anything fancy with the file name. I think the program is looking for a jpg image in a certain format, eg where are these images coming from. http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/difference-between-jpg-and-jpeg-t2542018.html It looks like paint is just saving it to a proper image...

What About IrfanView Batch Convert / Rename. It Could Easily Be Done, Just Let Us Know What You Need. I've tried IrfanView to no avail. I don't know if there's a way to batch rename that reproduces what happens when you open it in Paint, but just adding the .jpeg extension in IrfranView doesn't work.

JRL wrote:Probably can help. What is the original file type?

The original file type is usually .jpg. When you go into Windows Explorer, and change it to .jpeg, they does not fix the problem. And just re-saving it in Paint doesn't work. It has to be opened in Paint and add the .jpeg extension to it.

Macro Scheduler Beginner

At my job, sometimes we have to change a large amount of images because they don't work well with the 3D program we're using. It's easy to do it manually when it's 5-10 images, but when there's 30 or more images, it can be time consuming. I want to write a macro where it looks in a folder, opens the...
