In Dolphin, by using an extension, I can do right-click to convert bulk PNG images into JPEG or any format. This is very effective (I use it very intensely) for my graphic design works. But how about Nautilus? Sure, you can do the same thing. You will need to install programs nautilus-image-converter (resizer) and nautilus-image-tools (converter). nautilus-image-converter created by GNOME team and nautilus-image-tools created by Atareao Team. Thank you!

Install The Resizer

To do this, install nautilus-image-converter from Ubuntu repository. I’m using Ubuntu 15.04 and the package is already there. Install it using Ubuntu Software Center or by Terminal:

sudo apt-get install nautilus-image-converter

Install The Converter

To do this, install nautilus-image-tools from unofficial repository. Atareao has created that unofficial in Launchpad PPA. Use these commands: Continue reading Add Right-Click Convert and Resize Images in Nautilus →

We hope this will help new users in Ubuntu. Enjoy.

Concepts

2. Recent Nautilus doesn’t have F3 (Split View) anymore.
3. Nautilus in Ubuntu doesn’t have normal Menubar, but has global menu like Finder in Mac OS X.
