Re: [Gimp-user] Does GIMP have automated macro / batch processing?

[Steve Kinney]

You may also find this useful, as you are working with a Linux OS:

https://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/crop/

Imagemagick is a very versatile tool for doing repetitive operations on
images.  In your use case, it would be possible to run the program
twice, to save cropped copies of the right half of every image, then
save copies of the left half of every image.

Determining the exact commands to use takes a little digging in the
documentation, but that's way easier than learning Scheme (or so I
imagine, not having learned Scheme myself).

If your scans don't need tweaking, and your target output is a PDF
document, Imagemagick covers that in one operation:

I would certainly recommend you post your requirement at GimpChat as there are 
a few people there who could create the script you require.

You have many examples installed with your Gimp, since Gimp itself uses 
scripts. Look into /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts


You can also write scripts in Python. See 
https://www.gimp.org/docs/python/index.html


Some examples of Python scripts here:

[Rick Strong]

If all you have are 10 pages it is faster to just do them manually. If you 
have many more pages, scripting in Script-fu may be the way to go. I know 
nothing about Script-fu but I did find this site. If you know programming or 
scripting it may be of use to you:  http://gimpbook.com/scripting/ .


It comes from a book which may be useful to GIMP beginners generally. 
"Beginning GIMP: From Novice to Professional ... by Akkana Peck"


Good luck.

What I need is a script as follows:
I have a book that I have scanned. It has both the left page and the right 
page.

When the script is run, it will open a copy of the file in a new
window and first select the right page, wait for minor alterations in
selection, when done, will delete the selected area and autocrop the
image to have the left page. Rename the page as "file name"_left.jpg
and close the new file.
Then it will open another copy of the file, select the left page, ait
for minor alterations in selection, when done, will delete the
selected area and autocrop the image to have the right page. Rename
the page as "file name"_right.jpg and close the new file.
Any advice?

GIMP doesn't do macros recording. You'd have to write scripts in an
interpreted programming language.

Sir,
Doesn't GIMP have such tools as I have mentioned that I require - like
batch processing / automated macros for a series of files?
Thank you for your advice.
