Batch immage processing

Dear all,

I have a series of image pairs (a couple of hundred) and I'd like to do the following operation on each of them:

(1) Open Picture A (2) Scale Picture A to either 900 pixel height or 500 pixel width (whatever is possible without needing to cut out sections) (3) Create a new file of size 1920 x 1080 pixel (4) Copy Picture A on the left hand side of the new file

(5) Open Picture B (6) Scale Picture B to either 900 pixel height or 500 pixel width (7) Copy Picture B on the right hand side of the new file (8) Save the new file as Picture C

I hope this is somewhat clear ...

Does anybody know how this is possible in a batch mode, that is without spending days doing this manually? At the end, I'd like to have a series of "Picture C" files which show comparisons of Picture A (on the left) and Picture B (on the right).

Thanks very much for your help in advance,

Best,

Michael

Quoting "Haenlein, Michael" :

I have a series of image pairs (a couple of hundred) and I'd like to do the following operation on each of them:

(1) Open Picture A (2) Scale Picture A to either 900 pixel height or 500 pixel width (whatever is possible without needing to cut out sections) (3) Create a new file of size 1920 x 1080 pixel (4) Copy Picture A on the left hand side of the new file

Given your description, it is possible to have each picture be 900 pixels tall with a width of 960 pixels and still need no "cutting out" (since two such pictures could sit side by side within the same 1920-pixel-wide image). If the width of each image is to be less than 500 pixels, do you really want them separated by 460 pixels (assuming each is centered within its half of the resulting image)?
