Thumbnailer Converter

Thumbnailer creates small images or Thumbnails of the original image. This is done by using these images wherever required as it could save more bandwidth. For example, when we need to display a preview of the photo, which will then be opened into a new tab when the user clicks preview image. We can use a small image here, rather than forcefully scaling the image to display in a small size.

To use the Thumbnailer converter, we can open the application by clicking on the Thumbnailer link from the images section. We will get a similar dashboard as shown below.

Step 1 − Navigate to the desired directory from which you wish to create Thumbnails, to navigate within directories use the folder icon on the left-hand side.

Step 2 − Select the folder from which you wish to create thumbnails, by clicking on the name of the folder displayed in the middle.

Note − Thumbnailer is a bulk thumbnail creator tool, a single image cannot be used in these tools.

Step 3 − In Scale Percent, text inputs enter the percentage by which you wish to shrink the image. Select Keep aspect ratio to maintain the original proportion of the Image.

Step 4 − Finally click on Thumbnail Images to create thumbnails.

The system will automatically create a subfolder, Thumbnails into a selected folder, and all files in that folder will be converted and saved there with the prefix tn_. For example, if you have an image abc.png, then it will be saved into tn_abc.png
