Steve1 Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Hi, I have loads of wmf images I need to convert as Microsoft have stopped wmf from displaying, rather than have to open each one, one by one select export gif and save, I wish I could record those actions, then apply the named actions to a chosen folder with the wmf files in, as one can in photoshop. Is this possible ? else how does AD carry out such mundane tasks on hundreds of files in a folder ? Steve1 Quote
v_kyr Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 In APh you would use Batch Processing for the bulk conversion of images, to those batch jobs also simpler macros (not the same level as Actions in PS) can be applied. - See: Batch Processing Batch Processing with Macros For macros see: Macros Macros: Equations Macros: Layer Behaviour Batch Processing with Macros inspiredmac 1 Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan ☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2
Steve1 Posted February 15, 2019 Author Posted February 15, 2019 I have AD but not APh which I presume is Affinity Photo, but wmf is a vector file and I have it open in AD a vector prog. I use Pshop for rasters. Would I need to buy Affinity Photo just to convert wmf files ? Can I get AD to batch convert or not ? I can export individual wmf files from it, but batch convert would be quicker. Steve1 Quote

Yes only Affinity Photo offers that Batch Processing and macros usage so far. - And NO Affinity Designer can not Batch process a bulk of files!

v_kyr Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 @Steve1 On Win you can use for batch conversion also other free tools (just ask the Google search engine) ... XnConvert Bulk Image Converter ... and so on ... A very fast and good one is IrfanView here which also can bulk convert WMF into other formats ...
