- 2Bitmap.EXE is a full 32-bit Windows'9x/NT4/2000 application.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- You can launch the program several ways:
- 1. Press "Start=>Run", enter your command line (see the command line syntax below)
- and press "OK";
-
- 2. You can launch the converting from your program:
-
- 2.1. For launching the converting from Visual C++, use the "ShellExecute(...)" method.
- For example:
- ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "C:\\Program Files\\fCoder\\2BITMAP\\2bitmap.exe", "s=\"C:\\My Documents\\*.*\" d=\"C:\\BMP Files\" -sf -sep -w200 -h100 -prop", NULL, SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED);
-
- 2.2. For launching the converting from Visual Basic, use the "Shell(...)" method.
- For example:
- Shell ("""C:\Program Files\fCoder\2BITMAP\2Bitmap.exe"" ""s=C:\My Documents\*.*"" ""d=C:\JPEG Files"" -sf -sep -w200 -h100 -prop")
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Supported source graphic formats:
- BMP, DIB, RLE, TIFF, GIF, JPEG(RGB and grayscale), PNG, PCX, DCX, TGA, DXF, EPSF with embeded preview image, FPX,
- WMF, EMF, IMG, WPG, PCD.
- LZW algorithm licensed under US patent No. 4558302 from Unisys.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Command line syntax:
- 2bitmap.exe s=<SP> d=<DP> -w<W> -h<H> -prop -rot<ANGLE> -cd<CD> -sep -ov -sf -g -crop(X0;Y0;X1;Y1)
-
- <SP> - Source file(s) path. Can be mask:
- <folder path>\*.* - convert all graphic files from folder
- <folder path>\*.bmp - convert all Bitmap files from folder
- <folder path>\MyImage.* - convert all files with name "MyImage" from folder
- <folder path>\MyImage.bmp - convert only "MyImage.bmp" from folder
- <DP> - Destination folder path.
-
- <CD> - Destination file(s) color depth (24 by default);
- Must be set as 1, 4, 8 or 24.
-
- <W> - Destination image width (width of the source image by default).
- <H> - Destination image height (height of the source image by default).
- -prop - Scaling will be proportionally if this key set.
-
- -sep - Separate multipage images (GIF, TIFF, DCX) if this key set.
-
- -ov - Overwrite existing destination files if this key set.
-
- -sf - Scan subfolders if this key set. Converted files will be placed into destination
- folder with source folders structure saving.
-
- -g - Save image in grayscale palette if this key set.
-
- <ANGLE> - Destination image rotation angle (0.00 by default)
- Must be set within the range of -360.00..0.00..360.00. The angle step is 0.01.
-
- -crop - Crop image
- X0 - left border;
- Y0 - top border;
- X1 - right border;
- Y1 - bottom border.

- Command line examples:
-
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.*" d="C:\BMP_Files"
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.*" d="C:"
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.*" d="C:\BMP_Files" -w300 -h500
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.*" d="C:\BMP_Files" -w300 -h500 -prop
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.*" d="C:\BMP_Files" -w300 -prop
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.png" d="C:\BMP_Files" -cd8
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\name.*" d="C:\BMP_Files" -w300 -h500 -prop -rot30 -cd4 -sf -ov -sep
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\name.*" d="C:\BMP_Files" -rot30
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Some tips:
-
- 1. Please use full path only. For example:
- s="C:\My Documents\*.bmp" -- Ok
- s="..\..\*.bmp" -- please do not use relative path.
-
- 2. If you want to convert vector or large raster files which have large width and height
- (more than 2000 x 2000), and converting is not success, try to set less width and height
- of destination file with using -w<W> and -h<H> keys. Use -prop key to save image proportions.
- For example:
- 2bitmap.exe s="C:\My Documents\*.*" d="C:\BMP_Files" -w1000 -h1000 -prop
-
- You need ( 3 MB + source file size) free RAM to creating a file that has width and height 1000 x 1000;
- You need (12 MB + source file size) free RAM ===//====//====//====//====//====//====//=== 2000 x 2000;
- You need (26 MB + source file size) free RAM ===//====//====//====//====//====//====//=== 3000 x 3000;
- You need (46 MB + source file size) free RAM ===//====//====//====//====//====//====//=== 4000 x 4000;
- You need (72 MB + source file size) free RAM ===//====//====//====//====//====//====//=== 5000 x 5000.
- This memory should be really free. We recommend to close all another applications before
- converting large files.
