It is possible to use AZImage as a batch converter by passing parameters in the command line. The following parameters are supported:

files=<source images list file>

<source images list file> is normal text file containing on each line one source image to convert (file name including the absolute path, e.g. c:\temp\a.jpg).

formats=<format list file>

<format list file> is a file that was saved for example from the format tab using "Save ...". The simplest way to generate the format list file is to add all required formats in AZImage then save the list.

options=<option file>

<option file> is a typical ini file containing one or more of the following options (0 stays for false, 1 means true)

[Generic]

Start Immediately=0

Turn Off=0

Hibernate=0

[Options]

Quit When Ready=0

Check For Updates=0

/forgetsettings

Do not save anything before exiting the program. For example the file list and the format list are saved automatically by default (to provide the data for the "Load last list" and the formats on startup). Since the batch mode is normally used to perform a completely specified operation over and over, there is normally no need save these settings.

For example:

azimage.exe "files=c:\program files\files.txt" "formats=c:\temp\formats.azf"
