  Batch conversion from JPG to PNG
Posted by: pygmalion - 09-16-2020, 06:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (10)

I want to convert series of grayscale textual pictures from JPG to PNG.  Because of large number of pictures, I am using batching with BIMP.

Starting with 262k JPG file
- if I change manually I get 196k PNG file,
- if I change by batch I get 292k PNG file.

The difference is huge and I cannot figure what is wrong.  The one logical explanation I could come up is that when I use batch, I cannot set pixelformat.  In manual change I use default "automatic pixelformat".

Is my conclusion correct?  Is there a way I could convert to PNG by batch and get the same result?

Best regards.

  Printing in Black and White
Posted by: ArMaP - 09-16-2020, 11:39 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I know this has probably an obvious solution, but I couldn't find one.
Searching about it didn't help, as the key words appear in many other topics, so I decided to create an account and start by asking about it.

I am using Windows 7, Gimp 2.10.14 and a HP LaserJet 100 color MFP M175nw printer.

The printer is configured to always print in black and white, but whenever I print from Gimp it prints in colour, even when the image is in greyscale.

What am I missing?

I also noticed that the "Image Settings" section of the "Print..." menu doesn't show all the available options, as I can see that there's a radio button option just visible above the bottom of window.

Thanks in advance. Smile

  Changing Colour around an Image
Posted by: /jamie - 09-15-2020, 06:56 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

I hope that someone can help. I wish to make the area outside of the writing in the attached image clear, leaving the black outline of the writing and the green in-fill. However, I can only change all of the green to clear or none of it. Is there a way to fill in the writing without doing the background as well?
   
Thank you.

Jamie.

  Gimp + Gmic + AppImages
Posted by: CtrlAltDel - 09-14-2020, 08:30 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (10)

I am having some difficulty with Gmic filters not functioning while using the latest Gimp AppImage. 

GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.21-20200910-withplugins-x86_64.AppImage

If anyone else is using this version here could you tell me if a whole lot of your Gmic plugins that came with it are not working?  As an example, let's just pick the Artistic filters, maybe 5 out of all of them are functional for me.

I don't know if it's a Gmic issue, a Gimp problem, or an AppImage packaging problem and was hoping someone here may have some insight into it.

The lastest Gimp AppImage comes with the latest Gmic 2.9.2.

Anyway, I've still got Gimp AppImage version 2.10.19 that comes bundled with Gmic 2.9.0 and all Gmic filters work flawlessly with that setup, so it isn't any emergency or anything.  I'm just curious if anyone else has had this same problem.

  stretch / scale portion of image
Posted by: RealGomer - 09-14-2020, 12:49 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I have an image that I want to make taller. Using copy - paste - move leaves visible lines where even the paste portion falls. Clone will take "forever". Is there any way to stretch or scale just a portion of the image?
