tif2jpeg conversion. How to find tif or photoshop eps files which have layers or transparencies???

Report · May 19, 2015

hello

We have problem with growing used space on server and workstations and want in future use only jpg instead tif, where is possible.

I have 10000000000000000000000 tif and photoshop eps files on server which I need to convert to jpg. But only this which dont have layers or transparencies which jpg wont support.

How to find this images in folder and move it to some new folder? If bridge cant to this maybe some recommendation for other software.

Many thanks

I'm not aware of any way to do this with Bridge, or other software which can, unfortunately. You can search for tif, but not for if they are layered.

After many many copy/paste trial/error I have finished script. CS6 on Windows. Someone can clean code. Error log go to Windows/temp for easy clean.

Script convert layered images to pdf format which I think is better than psd and into source subfolder PDFs. PDF parameters is in the script.

Script convert non-layered images to jpg format and into source subfolder JPGs. JPG parameters is in the script.

1. Copy script "Layered PSD-TIF to layered PDF_Non-layered to JPG.jsx" to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Presets\Scripts

2. Copy droplet "Layered PSD-TIF to layered PDF_Non-layered to JPG.exe" somewhere on pc.

3. Load actions set1 into action panel

4. Drop images onto droplet and wait.
