pp20PDN Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 To whom ever reads this, hello! Is it at all possible to compress several images at once using Paint.Net? I love the function Paint.Net provides when you 'Save' a picture, and it gives you the slider option within 'Save Configuration' to change the quality of an image and therefore the file size of the image can be reduced. i.e. opening a 5MB image, then when saving this image Paint.Net gives you the option to change the quality of the image by using the slider, which can take it down to several hundred K without much difference to quality of the final saved image. Anyway!! does anyone know if this can be done to a batch of images all in one go? i.e. highlighting or importing 10x 5MB images, and doing 'one' Save to compress them all at once using the same quality? instead of having to open and save them individually, which can be tedious if you have 50 images like me. I hope that makes sense? 'Any' response is much appriciated! Thank you in advance! pp20PDN Quote
PyroTechniques Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 I don't think so. Maybe you could look online for some sort of image-compression software? Quote Photobucket Sucks!
david.atwell Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 This functionality is not built in to Paint.NET. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

pp20PDN Posted November 20, 2008 Author Posted November 20, 2008 Thank you for your replies! I like it when people respond quickly on forums, thank you all! Oh well, im not a programmer or software developer so I dont know how hard it would be but if possible it would be brilliant if the Paint.Net team made this an available feature. Oh well, Ill have a look around the web, there maybe something somewhere. Thanks once again. pp20PDN. Quote
david.atwell Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 There is. As I recall, some of our users have had good luck with a program called IrfanView.
