I am new to this list so please do not get upset if this query has been answered before.

We require a Dos Util for batch conversion of

  1. TIFF uncompressed to TIFF Lzw
  2. TIFF G4 to TIFF Lzw
  3. TIFF G4 to PCX

If anyone in the mailing list knows of any utility that can perform the above we would be grateful if you could let us know.

Get libtiff from ftp.sgi.com /graphics/tiff/. It includes tools for doing the conversions you want to do with command-line tools, so it should be simple to write a bat file in dos to do it in batch. something like

for %f in (*.tif) do tiffcp -c lzw %f \tmp\%f
move \tmp\*.tif.

would work from the DOS command-line, using the tiffcp program that comes with libtiff.
