In Irfanview helpfile:
/convert=filename -        save/convert input image(s)/file(s) to 
"filename" and CLOSE IrfanView 

          (see Pattern page for additional filename options)


So it appears you could automate conversion.  Irfanview has been in the 
wild for a very long time and is a free download: http://www.irfanview.com/
