An image converting script, that automates the convertion process using python.

Image-converter

This Python script provides a convenient way to convert images to a desired format and save them in a specified folder. It utilizes the sys and os modules to accept command-line arguments for the source folder containing the images and the destination folder where the converted images will be saved.

Features:

• Converts images from one format to another
• Supports various image formats (e.g., JPEG, PNG, GIF)
• Allows customization of the destination format
• Effortlessly processes multiple images in a folder
• Maintains the original file names during conversion
• Preserves image quality and metadata
• Automatically creates the destination folder if it does not exist

Usage:

1. Ensure that Python and the necessary dependencies are installed.
2. Run the script using the command: python image_converter.py <source_folder> <destination_folder>
   • <source_folder>: Path to the folder containing the images to be converted.
   • <destination_folder>: Path to the folder where the converted images will be saved.
3. Sit back and relax while the script efficiently converts and saves the images.

Example:

python image_converter.py /path/to/source_images /path/to/destination_folder

Note:

• Make sure to specify valid paths for both the source and destination folders.
• The script preserves the directory structure of the source folder within the destination folder.
• The destination folder will be created if it does not exist.

Dependencies:

• Python (3.x or higher)
• The Python Imaging Library (PIL) or Pillow library

Feel free to use and modify this script to suit your image conversion needs.
