Resize PSD first, then convert to PNG layers

[alexandervrs]

I am creating a node-webkit application. There is a module for it that allows executing imagemagick commands. So I am using the convert command to convert a PSD into PNG layers.

Problem is that a PSD with a large canvas (like 4000x4000) takes a very long time to convert and export each layer.

What I'd like to do is first resize the PSD (to its 30% for example, keeping all layers, just resizing the canvas) without exporting all the layers and as it is now smaller, then convert it to PNG layers.

Is this possible somehow?

As a command, you could:

Code: Select all

convert in.psd -resize 30% out-%03d.png

This will:
1. read the psd, so you now hve one image per layer;
2. resize each image to 30%
3. save the images as out-000.png, out-001.png, out-002.png etc.
