To: mailto:IMAGELIB@LISTSERV.ARIZONA.EDU

    <pre> We are currently working on a project to digitise a selection of microfilms It is expected to digitise the microfilm as greyscale images in JPEG format in the region of 300-400 dpi The images will be later hosted on the Internet and may need resizing down to smaller efficient file sizes to allow fast r access. I have experienced photoshop with 'quick keys' to resize the images but requires opening of each image

    Is there a more suitable proprietary application that can be 'run' over the files to batch this process seamlessly?

    the application Debabilizer comes to mind, any suggestions ?
