If you're a Windows user, download the zip archive in that same section and unzip them to somewhere easily accessible (the desktop is fine). Batch image resizing. Unzip that file (simply called “dbp”) and place it in the folder at this location on your computer “C: Program Files GIMP-2.0 lib gimp 2.0 plug-ins.

For my MakeUseOf articles I’m constantly resizing images so that they will fit into our page template. As a result, I go through a lot of repetitive.

Gimp doesn't have built in batch resizing functionality, but it's pretty simple to add it via a plug-in called DBP (David's Batch Processor).
  1. Download Windows version of DPB from here.
    (For Linux version check DPB home page).
  2. Extract dbp.exe file and copy to: C:Program FilesGIMP-2.0libgimp2.0plug-ins
  3. Open Gimp and open Filters > Batch Process
  4. In David's Batch Processor dialog:
    • Input Tab: Add files you want to process
    • Resize Tab: Configure resizing settings
    • Rename Tab: Choose where resized pictures will be saved.
    • Output Tab: Select and configure image format.
  5. Click on Start to begin batch resizing.

As implied by the title, does anybody know how to use the gimp-console-[version].exe program to batch convert images between formats (with default settings) in Windows ?

Better than Gimp or Irfanview is ImageMagick.

There is also a wizard based batch processor available:

Is using Irfanview not an option? I keep both GIMP and Irfanview installed for precisely this reason...GIMP for image editing and Irfanview for batch conversion.

I am going to fall into the camp of using the right tool for the job and I have both Irfanview, and ImageMagick installed, and agree that both are fantastic tools. However let me throw in one more option for posterity. I don't use XnView on a regular basis, but keep a copy of the portable version around to keep on my usb so that I have a powerful easy to use very capable image tool available when I'm out and about. The beauty of the portable version is that you can use it and if you don't like it just delete the install directory. It along with dozens of other free and open source portable applications is available at http://portableapps.com/or specificallyhttp://portableapps.com/news/2009-12-06_-_xnview_portable_1.97The installer will create a directory that contains everything necessary to run the program. Just go to that directory, start the EXE, give it a test. As stated above, when you get tired of it just delete the whole directory. They all run just like that from a USB stick as well. I have about 80 apps I carry around with me and use on public or shared PC's.

Although I am not really answering the question here I have alternative solution that has worked for me quite well and works from within the GIMP.

Keep in mind this might not be best solution for very large number of images.

Export Layers plugin for GIMP (I am not an author of this plug-in)

  • uses native dialogs for file format export procedures to adjust file format settings.
  • uses layer names as filenames for the exported images.
  • supports layer groups and optionally treats them as folders.
  • can optionally export only layers whose file extension matches specified file format.
  • can use file extensions in layer names as file formats
  • can use layers with names in [square brackets] as background layers
  1. First make sure you have GIMP 2.8 or higher (I confirm it works on 2.8.14)
  2. Download the plug-in (make sure it saves as file with .py extension)
  3. Paste the plug-in into the GIMP_INSTALLATION_FOLDERlibgimp2.0plug-ins
  4. Import your images as layers (File > Open as layers).
  5. Select File > Export Layers.. or Export Layers To
  6. Dialogue window will pop up with export options that look similar to any other GIMP dialogue window and are very self descriptive.

NOTE: If you paste the plug-in make sure GIMP is not working, if it is restart it.
