I've converted all of my document pictures, and pictures that link from legacy from JPEG to tiffs. Of course Legacy cannot find any of the pictures or documents that I had link to because of the change in the file extension. Does anyone know of any way for legacy to automatically go through all of my document pictures, and pictures and change the extension only so that legacy can find the file names?
In case you're wondering why did this is that I have already had several pictures drop out their colors in the JPEG format due to the characteristics of JPEG. I didn't want to use PNG because there was no place within a PNG file to keep the comments that I had in the JPEG file, the same goes for gif file. I have plenty of room on my hard drive so I'm not concerned with the increase in size than a TIF creates. The only downside to the TIF file besides its size is that the web doesn't recognize it, but I don't plan on creating a webpage, at least not in the near future. There may be a better way of using the JPEG format without it dropping out pixels every time you mess with it, but I'd don't know how to do it if there is. I'd rather use the JPEG if anybody's got any good suggestions as how I can do this and avoid the flaws in its retention of pixels. Thanks in advance to anyone that has any suggestions, as how to automatically change the JPEG extensions to tiffs extensions in legacy without losing the file name other than the extension, or any tricks I could do with the JPEG and have the file remain as stable as a tiff or a PNG formatted file.
