Save as on multiple files at once (GIMP)

user8363 picture user8363 · Feb 26, 2012 · Viewed 15.7k times · Source

I have a series of .xcf images which I want to save as .png. I can open each file and save as .png but since there are a lot of images it would take a fair amount of time.

Is there a way to convert all images at once, or another way I have to spent less time on this job?

Thank you in advance.

Well if you have imagemagick installed, you can do it like:

mogrify -format png *.xcf

This converts them automatically in the same directory. Also read man mogrify or this for other options.
