File Conversion?
I want to change all of the images to .JPG. Then I want to transfer them to another Windows computer. I might put the saved file on my external hard drive and then retrieve them using the Windows computer. It has MacDrive 7 so it can read the files on the external hard drive.
I do not want to do this manually. Two years ago I needed to transfer all of my bookmarks from one browser to another. There were approximately 1100 and it took a week of evenings to do it. There must be a way to do this automatically.
I have heard of the Automator application but I can't find a tutorial on the Apple site to show me how to use it.
There is a third thing I would like to do but it isn't critical. The .BMP files are about 3 MBs each. I would prefer to shrink all those large files to approximately 250 KBs each and keep the image the same size. These images are very unlikely to be printed so they don't need the maximum detail of a 3 MB file.
If anybody knows how to accomplish these tasks with iPhoto or any other software please let me know.
Thank you.
