NAME

       batch_image_convert  - use VIPS to convert a set of images to a new type

SYNOPSIS

       batch_image_convert type image1 image2 ...

DESCRIPTION

       The  first  argument  is  the name of an image type, subsequent arguments are the names of
       files to be converted to that type. VIPS can usually read almost any image  type,  but  it
       can  only  write  VIPS,  PNG,  TIFF,  PPM/PGM/PBM  and  JPEG.   You can specify conversion
       parameters in the type name.

       For example:

         batch_image_convert tiff fred.jpg jim.png

       will convert fred.jpg and jim.png to TIFF format.

         batch_image_convert jpeg:95 jim.png

       will write jim.jpeg with a 95% quality factor.

RETURN VALUE

       returns 0 on success and non-zero on error.
