Google Scripts is a Javascript cloud scripting language (as opposed to Javascript being client-side only) which can make life easier for most of us (Or at least the tech-savvy ones). But if you are not a programmer, don't despair -- this tutorial does not assume coding experience but the ability to copy and paste in the right places. Now all Google products support scripting and this includes Google Maps. So for example, if you want to write a script which will import the restaurant data from Google Maps, then make it into a list in Google Sheets, and then sort the list by distance from home and email that list to colleagues, it is now possible to achieve all of this due to the support of Google Scripts.

But for those conversions we need Imagemagick (for convert ) sudo apt-get install imagemagick --fix-missing And we would need the djvulibre toolbox also sudo apt-get install djvulibre* After these softwares are installed we are ready to run the following script.

For tiff files replace  the TYPE with tif. Or you can call the script with the command line option of the file type. Just replace "jpg" by $1 in the script below. #!/bin/bash TYPE = "jpg" for x in *. $TYPE do y = ` basename $x . $TYPE ` convert $y . $TYPE $y .pbm cjb2 -...
