MikhailG Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 (edited) Hello. Can you help me create a script, plugin, or another method? I have many scanned documents that I need to correct the levels on and then save as 1-bit PNG. I have tried various methods, such as searching for a plugin for scripts, batch processing plugins, and even trying neural networks, but my knowledge is below zero, and nothing has helped me. I hope someone can help me. Edited February 18, 2023 by MikhailG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Hello @MikhailG - welcome to the forum In short, there isn't a way to automate this. Here's a workaround using keyboard shortcuts to make it as painless as we can. Open the image (or a group of them). For each image... Ctrl + L open Levels. If you've already run levels and the setting don't need to change, Ctrl + F runs the adjustment again. Ctrl + Shift + S (save as) Make sure PNG is the filetype and confirm the filename In the PNG configration dialog, press Tab three times Press the down arrow until 1-Bit is shown as the bit-depth Press Enter to save. Repeat for all images.

MikhailG Posted February 19, 2023 Author Share Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) Thank you, that will speed up the work a bit, but editing 500-600 pages is still quite difficult. I have come across mentions of batch processing using plugins, scripts... are these just rumors, or did this work in older versions?

BDP Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 XnView has a great batch conversion built in, which will do what you require on single and multiple images, and you can save actions to a script, and then re-use it Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
