Version 0.1.0
Convert one or more PSD files to JPG format. Thumbnail and optimize them, or don't.
I keep many of the assets I use for web development in PSD format. This lets me perform non-destructive edits and crops in Photoshop and come back to edit the originals later. I built psdtojpg to make it easier to generate, downsize, and optimize JPGs from my asset PSDs.
This is a Python 3 script, so use pip3 to install:
pip3 install psdtojpg
After this, run psdtojpg --help from your terminal to verify it's installed properly.
psdtojpg my_file.psd
my_file.psd ➔ Converted/Original/my_file.jpg(original size, default quality: 80)
psdtojpg -w 640 -t 480 my_file.psd
my_file.psd ➔ Converted/Original/my_file.jpg(original size)my_file.psd ➔ Converted/Resized/my_file.jpg(max size: 640x480 px)
psdtojpg -w 640 -t 480 -n my_file.psd
my_file.psd ➔ Converted/Resized/my_file.jpg(max size: 640x480 px)
psdtojpg -q 60 my_file.psd
my_file.psd ➔ Converted/Original/my_file.jpg(original size, quality: 60)
psdtojpg -o my_file.psd
my_file.psd ➔ Converted/Original/my_file.jpg(original size, optimized with ImageOptim)
psdtojpg -w 800 -t 600 -g orig -r thumb/sm my_file.psd
my_file.psd ➔ orig/my_file.jpg(original size)my_file.psd ➔ thumb/sm/my_file.jpg(max size: 800x600 px)
