Batch command for ImageMagick to convert all files in a directory and sub-directories on windows

I have thousands of SVG's in a folder and sub-folders. What I want is to batch convert all of them to jpg or png images.

Can someone help me write a command for ImageMagick (windows), which can find and convert all the svg's to jpg/png with their original names and keep them in the same directories?

Here is the example structure:

C:\SVG\BusinessMan.svg
C:\SVG\Models\Home.svg
C:\SVG\Underlines\underline.svg

And I want it like this after conversion:

C:\SVG\BusinessMan.svg
C:\SVG\BusinessMan.jpg
C:\SVG\Models\Home.svg
C:\SVG\Models\Home.jpg
C:\SVG\Underlines\underline.svg
C:\SVG\Underlines\underline.jpg
Solution

  • Try with a FOR loop with /R flag from inside your root folder:

    FOR /R %a IN (*.svg) DO convert "%~a" "%~dpna.jpg"

    this command will convert all the .svg files in your sub-directories under the root folder you launched your command from.

    Above command works for command line, if you plan to use the command inside a batch file (.bat) remember to use %% instead of %:

    FOR /R %%a IN (*.svg) DO convert "%%~a" "%%~dpna.jpg"
