vjsouza Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Hello, guys at Serif. I am a happy user of Affinity Suite 2.0.4 (Publisher, Photo and Designer) But, today I wasn't so happy with the Affinity Photo program In the past, in version 1, I needed to convert an entire folder from WEBP to PNG. It worked! But today I need to convert a folder with PNG files into JPEG XL files. I was sad to see that Affinity Photo only Batch Jobs JPEG, PNG, TIFF and EXR. Currently, Affinity 2.0.4 can export to PNG, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PSD, PDF, SVG, WMF, EPS, EXR, HDR, TGA, JPEG XL and WEBP. I cannot understand why Batch Job exists only for JPG, PNG, TIFF and EXR. Why is there no Batch Job for the other formats? Did you guys at Affinity forget to include these formats? I have a folder with 261 PNG files and I urgently need to convert them all to .JXL and converting one by one is going to be an arduous and super tedious job. Oh! What a good batch job is missing! Unfortunately, Xnview MP crashes when doing a batch job, and so does IrfanView. GIMP doesn't even have a Batch Job. I can only appeal for the help that only the guys from Affinity can provide. Help! Please! PaoloT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Klaus- Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 The thing I miss most is the ability to select the PDF save format when batch processing. What is wrong with adding this feature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomi02118 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I would like to convert a large amount of clipart from eps to AD or SVG and was surprised that batching doesn't do that! PDF would be nice as well. I assume there som technical hill to climb to do that but it would be wonderful not to have to so 1000s of files one by one!

Honesty I briefly thought about that and then discarded the idea thinking it might not work. It makes more sense coming from you than my own brain! *edit. Just remembered what I was thinking. I didn’t want to open Photo instead of designer when double clicking. Edited October 20, 2023 by nomi02118 Remembered something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
