I have got a script running to convert PDF to a JPEG but i need to get the resolution of the JPEG to 72dpi, as far as i can see image events only supports read only for resolution, does anyone know of another way to script changing the resolution.
Hi
Seems your right about the read only property!!
there was an scripting addition here: http://osaxen.com/files/graphicseffector1.0.html
which i guess could of added the functionality your after reading from past posts of a similar nature however i think the link might be dead.
there is other image editing apps that will do this including the mighty photoshop if you have it.
Hi
I’ve been working on a similar project and found a couple of helpful tools. The easiest is this http://osaxen.com/files/graphicsimporter2.2.html scripting addition, the only thing I found was that it changed the res to what I wanted but also converted my CMYK image to RGB if that’s not a problem for you then give this a try. If it is a issue I think your best option is ImageMagick http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#macosx this can do pretty much anything you can think over but can only be used via shell scripts which you can wrap inside you applescript. I think you also need Developer tools installed as well from what I’ve been reading, definately worth a look though!
Good Luck,
Nik
That was one of the things that dfoy wanted to do in this thread: Convert CMYK images to RGB, web sized images
