JConvert - BMP/JPEG Converter

This program is actually a viewer and converter of BMP to JPEG files and vice versa.

Some hints:

To convert an image, select the file (the image appears), click "Convert" and give the name for the new file. If it's a BMP image you need to enter the compression-quality ratio.

Press Del to delete the selected file.

Everytime the program is executed, it associates itself with folders, and the option "JConvert" is shown in the right-click menu.

In (My Computers -> Control Panel ->) Add/Remove Programs you may remove JConvert. That will only remove the Registry entries.

You may pass a file as a command-line parameter. See command.txt in the zip for more details.

If you wish to open BMP or JPG images with JConvert do the following:

  • Run Windows Explorer (Start -> Programs -> Windows Explorer)
  • Go to: View -> Options -> File Types
  • Select Bitmap Image (or JPEG Image) and click Edit. If that doesn't exist, select New Type, enter bmp (or jpg) for extension and Bitmap (or JPEG) Image for description.
  • Select New
  • Enter action: JConvert
  • Click Browse and find jconvert.exe
  • Add: (space) "%1" (WITH quotes) to Application used...
  • From now on, JConvert shows up on the right-click menu.

There is no copyright, do as you wish with the program.
