Secure Image Command Line Operation
Secure Image Pro version 5.0 can be operated from the Desktop
as a normal Windows application or it can be used in command-line mode, enabling it to be used server-side and integrated
with web pages for encrypting images uploaded to websites.
Installation
Copy the "SecureImage" folder to your computer. If
you are using a server
environment, it is recommended to install and save at C:\SecureImage. The command
line converter (CMD) uses ProDefaults.dat for default settings,
such as the watermark image to use, for example, if those options are
required.
First run
Before running CMD in command-line mode you need to set the ProDefaults.dat file for your default settings.
1. Run the Windows GIU by double-clicking on SecureImagePro.jar
2. Add an image
3. Highlight the image and then click the Configure button
4. Run through the wizard for Targeted Link
5. Set Watermark for Mac and Linux only
6. Set watermark image (watermark.gif in the same folder as
SecureImagePro.jar)
7. Click Finish
8. With the image still highlighted, click on the Protect
button
9. Select the output folder and click Open
10. The converter will save all new files to that location
11. Close the converter GUI and select YES to "Save new
settings"
The ProDefaults.dat now contains your default settings.
Command line operation
Secure Image Pro CMD is designed for high-end users or those who encrypt images in volume for fast deployment. The CMD converter will encrypt single images or batches of images that are nominated by folder. The recommended parameters to use are:
• Targeted Link as nominated display style
• Watermark image to use
• Background and text colors
• Border size, if required
The parameters to use in the command line:
• i <input folder> or -f <input file>
• o <output folder>
• s <settings file> (optional)
• v <viewer folder>
If no settings file is nominated, the converter will use its
inbuilt defaults. The viewer folder must be present to provide
some of the resources that are delivered in the final output.
For example:
For batch conversion by folder using ProDefaults.dat settings:
java -jar SecureImagePro.jar -i c:\SecureImage\in -o c:\SecureImage\out
-v c:\SecureImage\Viewer -s c:\SecureImage\ProDefaults.dat
For single file conversion using ProDefaults.dat settings:
java -jar SecureImagePro.jar -f c:\SecureImage\in\myimage.jpg -o
c:\SecureImage\out -v c:\SecureImage\Viewer -s c:\SecureImage\ProDefaults.dat
Windows Server DLL Interface
For Windows servers, a ready-made DLL interface is available
to enable users to upload images from a web page for automatic processing by
the converter server-side. ArtistScope can provide a system DLL to provide
an interface between website pages and the Converter installed to the
computer that is running as a server.
- Upload and encrypt GIF, JPG and PNG images
- Create new web pages for the images and add/edit copy
from a web page
The only requirement is .NET Framework 4 for support on:
- Windows Server 2003
- Windows Server 2008 R2
- Windows 7 Ultimate and higher
