AutoCAD Inventor :: Batch IDW To DWG Conversion

Nov 1, 2012

I have about 500+ idws that has to be converted to dwg. No problem I thought... just use the task scheduler and create a task (Convert IDW to DWG) to do it.

That works.... but there is a small problem. The DWG that it saves has the data in paper space.  Of coarse, the customer requires it to be in Model Space.

Is there a way to do this with the Task Scheduler? or some other way, short of manually opening/saving each idw. I don't own KwikBatch Runx64 and was hoping we could do this without purchasing something else.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Batch Conversion From Imperial To Metric Not Working

Jul 29, 2013

I need to convert a large number of drawings from Imperial to Metric (I have copied that drawings and intend to save as a metric set, so I'll be overwriting (and possible appending "-METRIC" to the file name.) So I wrote a batch file to collect the drawings then apply a conversion (autocad) script.

I also created a script to close the drawings that would run after a batch (i.e. subdirectory (say 20 drwgs)).

If I open the drawings manually and run the scripts, they work fine, however I have been unable to automate the procedure.

Batch to collect files:

SET ACAD2013PATH="C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2013"

FOR /R c:ACADCrosby-Converted_to_Metric est %%f in (*.dwg) do start /wait %ACAD2013PATH%acad.exe%%f /b c:ACADscale-imperial-to-metric.scr

start /wait %ACAD2013PATH%acad.exe c:ACADCloseACAD.scr

[code]...

AutoCAD 2013 :: Batch Conversion Of All Or Selected Blocks To Mass Objects?

Sep 30, 2013

I need to export many library elements (conveyors) which are saved in individual blocks to mass objects. I need to convert them to IGES after that.

Until now I have to open every single block and convert all of it to a mass element. This simply takes too long.

Is it possible to write a small script or program which converts all blocks or the selected blocks to mass elements?

Photoshop :: Batch Conversion Action

Sep 30, 2003

I'm using Photoshop 7.01. I have a bunch of 16-bit TIFFs that I want to batch convert to 8-bit JPEG FINE.

I created a manual action, which works fine, hook it up to F2 and open up 50 tiffs at the same time. Start hitting F2 and the files disappear and I end up with a nice bunch of jpegs.

Now I want to automate it, so I create a new action.

Open TIFF

Change to 8-bit

Save as jpeg

Close

When I run a batch, choose a source folder and target folder, and kick it off, I see all the files open and close, but only the first one (used in my example to create the action) ends up as a jpeg, followed by a bunch of TIFFs.
As far as I can tell, the action opens all the files one after the other, but it always saves the same file.

So, in my output folder, I get 1 JPEG followed by 250 different TIFFs, but the JPEG always appears on my screen for a split second during the save sequence, so it looks like it is being saved 250 times...

GIMP :: Batch Conversion Of Images

Jan 25, 2013

I need to convert from bitmap images to PNGs with the command line. I've tried looking into script-fu, but lisp is one of those languages I could never figure out.

I've tried using imagemagick, but it did not properly convert the images. The images are apparently 32bit Windows Bitmap V3 files with an alpha channel; according to a page I found on google, imagemagick will not preserve the alpha channel in this particular case. I don't know for certain if that's the actual reason why imagemagick isn't working, but it definitely isn't working. It does, however, work if done manually in gimp.

This is going to be part of a python script, so I need it to convert a specific bitmap file rather than all the ones in a directory.

Photoshop :: CS5 - Batch (actions) Conversion Of PSD To JPEG?

Sep 26, 2013

Up until a month or so ago, using photoshop CS5 - windows,  a batch psd conversion of nummerous files say fred1. psd through fred10.psd gave me fred1 jpeg through fred10.jpeg. I saveconversions to a dump jpeg folder on another drive where there are also, dump psd and dump tiff with tiff not being much used.
 
Using actions, the first conversion of a series will be fred.jpeg but thereafter it will be fred1 copy.jpeg through fred10 copy .jpeg. No big deal for a few files as the word copy can be deleted. However, if a jpeg file say fred.jpeg needs to be updated in say a slide show or web site then the new conversion of the updated file as fred copy.jpeg causes identity problems.
 
how can I return to the situation where fred.psd becomes fred.jpeg and not fred copy.jpeg. This does not seem to happen for individual conversions the manual way. I tried to convert to jpeg 2000 but the same happened. I'm not sure about jpeg 2000 and how it would work if taking to a phot processor for "photographic" prints.

Photoshop :: Batch File Size Conversion

Jun 19, 2009

I have an older version of Photoshop, (7.0), but I'm sure the Batch Conversion Process is similar with all versions. I have a folder of photos, (large file sizes), I'd like to reduce each file size to a little bigger than a Thumnail size. This is hopefully something I can do bysetting the same parameters to all the photos. Here's what I've figured out (so far)FileAutomateBatchChoose Source FolderChoose Destination Folder That's about it - when I choose both folders, I can't seem to pull up the parameters to reduce the file sizes.

Photoshop :: Batch Conversion Of All Photos To 8x6 Ratio

Jan 19, 2006

I have a folder full of images and I'd like them all to be in the 8x6 ratio, with white as the background if any canvas size needs to be changed. I can do a batch and make every picture a canvas size of 800x600, but if the original is 1100x240 that doesn't help me much, I'll loose alot of the image's width.

So I just want to convert the image's canvas size to be in the ratio of 8x6. Is this possible with Photoshop CS or Photoshop CS2?

Photoshop Elements :: Transparency Lost In Batch Conversion?

Oct 24, 2012

I've tried to convert several files using "Process multiple files" in Photoshop Elements 10. Input files are CMYK psd files with one layer and transparent background. They should be resized and converted to PNG. It works excepting the transparency in the PNG files is missing - the background is white instead. The conversion works however if I open a single file, convert it to RGB after prompt and save it as PNG. The background is transparent as it should.
 
So why my pngs are not transparent  when using batch conversion?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Batch Conversion Of Specific Colors?

Aug 24, 2011

In 2006 I started a vector-based comic using CorelDraw, made for posting on the web in RGB. Over the years I've made the transition to a more CMYK-friendly palette that works on the web, though a handful of heritage characters still have the old RGB profiles. I'm looking to do a book collection now and, as such, want to convert these characters' specific colors to their fitting CMYK counterparts.

Is there a batch process that allows me to convert a specific handful (maybe 2 dozen) colors RGB --> CMYK across a number of files? I'm looking at hundreds of pages of artwork here, so even Corel's Object Find/Replace would be a tedious slough.

AutoCAD Inventor :: STL Scaling On Conversion

Oct 10, 2011

I am trying to print on a 3d printer and seem to have a bit of a scaling issue with inventor 2012.  I saved the .stl file in the same units but still get a scaling issue.  Under options when I save it shows a 1:1 scale as well as the correct units.

When printing a .stl file from another computer that has inventor 10 installed we do not have this issue.  Seems to be something with the files from 2012.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Parameter Units / Conversion

Aug 3, 2012

It seems that parameters can not mix units. You can not use in or ul in a deg parameter. I want to roll a cylinder using a contour roll but I want the cylinder to have about an 1/8 gap at the seam no matter what the diameter of the cylinder is. So in order to calculate the calculated rolled angle I need to use "360-((0.125/CYLINDER_DIAMETER)/0.017453292)". I can not seem to get this equation in the parameter value because it has mixed units or in the multi-value custom equation. I can make another parameter that is ul and have it calculate it but I can not feed this value back to the contour roll parameter. I assume that the calulated parameter is ul and the contour roll parameter is deg.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Conversion Of Assembly Files To Pro / E Compatibility

Jun 26, 2012

I'm running into a file conversion issue at work. I use Inventor 2008 and i need to have my assembly miodels analyzed by stress engineering via Pro/E Wildfire.

I've tried converting the assembly file to .iges and .step. However, the assemblies are jumbled in the conversion. All the parts are there, but the constraints are not.  In the past, the assemblies have been small enough that the stress engineer was able to reassemble the parts in Pro/E. This current project, however, is much to large to do so. 

If I were to purchase Inventor 2013, could I save the files with the Pro/E native file extensions directly?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Batch Part Selection

Mar 14, 2012

Is there any way in an Inventor Presentation file to select all identical parts of an assembly other than the obvious and  grueling process of manualing selecting each part in the model navigation panel?

I am looking for a more effective way to color code for a set of assemblies that I have to produce. If the ability to use a mass selection process for individual parts exists it could save me a tremendous amount of time and energy.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Batch Export To DWG Solids And Drawings

Nov 8, 2011

I have a client who is requesting that I send them ".dwg" files of a particular project. They are asking for both  3D solids AND 2D drawing files.

1.) I can export the assembly files to a 3D DWG easy enough but how do I do it for 83 files using task scheduler or something; I cannot figure it out?

2.) We have used ".dwg" as our native drawing format because we have people here who have a need to open our IV drawings using AutoCAD. Can I just send my client these files, without the supporting part files, and have them open them?

3.) If I just send them a copy of our native ".dwg" files are they going to be able to re-use that geometry somehow? There isn't a real IP concern as these are just pipe supports and platforms made from available steel shapes but I certainly wouldn't want them to be able to take our work and re-use it on a different project without us. If they have to do some crazy stuff like explode and scale and re-dimension these things in order for them to be re-usable on a different project, I would at least prefer that to them just being able to reuse them easily. I guess what I'm saying is that if they are going to re-use this content, I am not going to make it easy for them that's for sure!

AutoCAD Inventor :: Batch Rename Assembly Components Using API

Apr 16, 2013

I have a machine assembly with old part naming. Now we have a new part naming system. So i am supposed to rename all existing parts, assemblies to new naming system.

E.g. : A machine assembly with old names (lets say part1, part2..... part1000). It has to be renamed to new names (say item1, item2.....item1000).

"part1" should be renamed as "item1" and so on.

Design assistant is not a good option because its a lot of manual work, its same issue with using Vault.
