Input File |
Input FileThe input file string allows you to select the source image file. You can either type in the name of the file, or you can use the Browse button to select a file from your computer. Only one file path\name can be entered in the Input File string field. If you want to process multiple input images at one time, you should enter the image names in an ASCII command file and select the command file as the input file. This is described in more detail in the section Batch Conversion. The basic input file type is determined by Image Convert based on the input filename extension. For MS or OS/2 Bitmap files, the filename extension should be .BMP. For GIF files, the filename extension should be .GIF, for JPEG files the filename extension should be .JPG, and for PNG (Portable Network Graphics) files, the filename extension should be .PNG. To process multiple input files, the filename extension should be .CMD, which is interpreted as a command file. Image Convert verifies that the file is truly of the type indicated by the file extension by attempting to read the file header information and verifying that the file header is valid for the indicated file type. An error is reported if the file header information and filename extension do not correspond.
