Batch conversion
Picture Converter isn't a photo editor, but a specialized tool to quickly and easily resize and convert batches of pictures at once. Shrink an entire folder of photos in one step and email, or prepare photos for the web. Plus, Photo Converter's versatility means you can automate situations where you would have had to edit each picture manually, saving you time and money.
Supports all popular formats
Picture Converter works with JPEG, Bitmap, GIF, TIFF, and PNG formats. Full control over compression and conversion options is available, including transparency. The source pictures can be in multiple formats and be converted into a single format.
Extensive resizing options
Picture Converter has extensive resize options, allowing you to create photos for any application. Photos can be enlarged or shrunk by percent, or by a specific number of pixels, with independent control over height and width. Three aspect options, including the exclusive Fit-to-Size and Letterbox options, give you more possibilities and lets your creativity shine.
Presets and templates
Extensive presets included with Picture Converter make it easy to prepare photos for common purposes. It's easy to create custom presets too.
Easy and Powerful
Whether you're preparing photos for the Web, DV, broadcasting, printing, or simply resizing your vacation photos, you'll find that Picture Converter fits perfectly with your existing toolset and skills. Picture Converter is very easy to use, but offers all the power professionals need. Switch seamlessly between Basic and Advanced mode depending on your requirements.
Scripting support
For advanced users, Picture Converter offers complete scripting support that can take advantage of every feature and option. This is useful for complex or difficult tasks which would be difficult or impossible to automate otherwise.
