Dear List,

I have just downloaded and installed imagemagick and am somewhat overwhelmed by it's functionality.

I really have only 1 task that I need to complete at this time but the list of options is daunting for me. I need to batch convert the contents of around 500 Kodak PhotoCD and ProPhotoCD disks to tiffs at the greatest res available in the imagepaks, that is 2048*3072 for PCD and 4096*6144 for PPCD.

The Convert or Mogrify commands seem to be the most appropriate but I cannot come up with a suitable syntax. Clearly I need to open the files from CD and save the tiffs on a local HDD.

Can some kind soul point me in the right direction, please?

Thanks in advance.

Ian.
