I wrote about it in my previous post here. But this time I have improved it to work with directories. That’s right, it also adds to the folder context-menu, so when you right click a folder and select “Compress”, it will process all of the JPG files within it.
The utility does replaces the files. A folder named “compressed” is created and processed JPG files are put there, when compressing is done, all the images gets moved to the main folder and old files are replaced with new files.
Instructions are the same for it…
Download the archive below, extract it to a Windows folder and run convertimg.bat (by double clicking), when asked press “I” to install it into registry (for the context menu).
Simple as that and it works great.
Now whenever you will right-click a JPEG file, a context menu entry “Compress” will appear.
If you understand a bit of batch, you can modify the script as you please.
Default compression ratio is 60% (40% less quality). It replaces the source file.
