Hi all,
I've written about this on the Lightroom forums but I thought I'd mention it here too, since this is my "main" forum
Frustrated by Alamy's 48Mb image size requirement, and the fact that Lightroom's export feature can't automatically resize images by the minimum amount necessary to guaranty that the requirement is met, I've written a plugin to solve the problem and improve my workflow.
The plugin applies ImageMagick's mogrify command to exported images. ImageMagick is a set of powerful, freeware command line utilities for Mac or PC.
Although my motivations were very specific, this plugin could be used by anyone who needs to further post process images using mogrify, and I've therefore decided to release it free of charge. The plugin currently allows the user to resize images using a choice of resizing algorithm and reconvert the resulting image to another format. Users can also enter their own command line parameters to control all the other aspects of mogrify.
I'm willing to improve the plugin to expose other mogrify features via the user interface if enough interest is shown.
It's been tested on Mac. It should work on PC but I can't test it - feedback's appreciated.
