Batch Export .cdr to .jpg with Subfolders

Need to export all my .cdr in several hundred folders, out to .jpg with matching file name and -1 -2 for page listings, but I want to keep the same folder structure but put it in a folder Next my CDR folder.

Example
Artwork CDR/ folder/folder/folder etc
Artwork JPG/  folder/folder/folder etc

I tried the file convert macro, but Have to run this per folder and would be time consuming... plus it is failing after four files.

  • Hello Wayne; I don't know why you are wanting to export ALL your cdr files to jpg but that may take a while. I think i would use something other than a jpg if you need all your files in a raster. And you may need a lot of hard drive space.

    • I have 1.77 Terabytes free on a new WD mybook that I am using for artwork storage.

      I need to have all my artwork in jpg, for my salesmen to be able to view when doing orders with artwork that are repeats.

      I am also maybe going to be able to allow weblinks to a "schools" folder to allow them to view their old artwork.

      My WDmybook has all of this web function incorporated, so instead of exporting to a shutterfly/flickr type of site, I can keep in internally.

    • HI.

      Hmm. I did this on 130,000 plus files a long time ago with CorelDraw 12. It worked well but I had to divide it up into about 4-5 chunks because of memory. Back then I didn't have that much memory to work with. I would let it run for hours at a time and it worked well. I do remember keeping file structure. I'll have to do some digging to see what script I used.
