I have 200 jpgs that are the same size. I need to combine them in pairs, putting them side-by-side.
So
1.jpg
2.jpg
3.jpg
4.jpg
Should make 2 new jpgs, one containing 1 and 2, and the other containing 3 and 4. Side by side.
Think of each image as a page of a book.
Is there anyway to automate this using imageMagick montage?
I ended up using ImageMagick NuGet package in a .NET console application and did the following:
using (MagickImageCollection images = new MagickImageCollection())
{
for (var i = 2; i <= 210; i=i+2)
{
var first =
new MagickImage(string.Format("PATH-TO-IMAGE-FOLDER_{0}.jpg", i.ToString().PadLeft(3, '0')));
var second =
new MagickImage(string.Format("PATH-TO-IMAGE-FOLDER_{0}.jpg", (i+1).ToString().PadLeft(3, '0')));
images.Add(first);
images.Add(second);
using (MagickImage result = images.SmushHorizontal(0))
{
result.Write(string.Format("{0}.png", i));
}
images.Clear();
}
}
