![]() ![]() In any case, users will notice that the interface is pretty straightforward, although it does have a ton of options. ![]() We covered that app as well in a review, if you want to check it out. The only kind of application that even comes close to XnConvert is Phatch, but it has a slightly different approach. Just open a terminal and enter the following commands (root is needed) where the file is located: In Ubuntu, you can just double-click on the DEB file and let Ubuntu Software center take care of the rest, or you can install it from the terminal, which is the recommended method. This is a simple installer that should be pretty easy to use and should work without any issues on other distros as well. Users who don't have an operating system that reads this kind of file formats will also find a TGZ file, but it's not the source. The developers at XnSoft do provide DEB and RPM packages, and these cover many distributions. That might not be the case with other repos, which could have it, so be sure to check. In any case, if you're looking for it in Ubuntu Software Center, you won't find it. It's a free app, but it's not open source and that might have something to do with it. Strangely enough, it's not even present in the repositories. There are no strange dependencies and it takes only seconds. We tested XnConvert in Ubuntu 14.10 and the installation went on smoothly. In any case, you would expect to see many more open source tools with this type of options and functionality, but there are only two (if we also count XnConvert). The fact that there are so few applications of this type is noteworthy, but they address a rather small niche of users. It's a convoluted procedure that gets more complicated when you try to do multiple tasks at once. ![]() Sure, you can do batch conversion from the terminal, but not everyone wants to do that. It's hard to find an application that can do this task properly and the Linux platform is not exactly abundant when it comes to these apps. Let us now take a closer look at the application to see why it's incredibly useful.īatch conversion might not seem like something important, but it's actually quite the opposite. It comes with a Linux client and it's one of the few tools of its kind on this platform. XnConvert is a very useful application for users who want to use many functions to modify and process images.If your software doesn't have the features you want or the format doesn't support it, we recommend trying XnConvert.XnConvert is batch image processor that has been designed to work on multiple operating systems. Multifunctional and highly compatible image processing app You can specify format-specific parameters such as image quality, compression level, and interlacing for the output image.
