<br>
This python script creates an image grid by creating a new Document and<br>
importing a grid of your specified images. You can choose the document<br>
format, the number of columns and rows.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Nice.</div><div><br></div><div>Would it be possible to make this script add picture infos in a text frame attached to the image, including filename?</div><div><br></div><div>That would be really useful when you must decide which pic can make it into a publication based on tech specs such as </div><div>- filename</div><div>- x-y resolution</div><div>- x-y size at 4 resolutions (user definable) : 72-96-225-300 dpi</div><div>- total area expressed in square inches and square centimeters for each 4 resolutions</div><div>- image type</div><div>- color space</div><div>- bit depth</div><div>- weight of image</div><div>- more...</div><div><br></div><div>The script could give the people working on a project a very rapid overview of the quality of the images they intend to use, technically wise.</div><div><br></div><div>This could be ideally sorted by a user definable field, depending on what suits better the needs for screening out pics.</div><div><br></div><div>For instance, displaying the pics sorted by “Total area at 300 dpi” would allow to immediately flag images that are suitable or not for a given need.</div><div><br></div><div>Displaying them in order of “image type” would allow to flag at a glance if some GIFs made it into the image folder, or some other unsuitable image type, etc.</div><div><br></div><div>Another approach would be to have the pics imported by their name in alphabetical order as a visual reference and from that file an export to csv would allow all sorts of reports to be produced in a breeze. Finding the images that don’t suit the needs would be easy for the users.</div><div><br></div><div>Transmitting this valuable info to the various people working on a project would then be a breeze. Export to PDF and a Calc sheet and voilà.</div><div><br></div><div>No more discussions about the usability of an image at a desired size.</div><div><br></div><div>Louis</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
