** Warning : This service depend on Krita and Imagemagick **

== WHAT ? ==
Artscript is a TK GUI wrapper for convert ( Imagemagick ) and calligraconverter ( Calligra suite, Krita ) written by Iván Santa María.

== WHY ? ==
Artscript allow you to do in a batch fashion :
- Convert complex layered image format ( open raster, PSD, Gimp Xcf ) to simple PNG or JPG
- Resize and compress
- Do collage of multiple documents
- Add watermark
etc...
The ideal companion of the Linux artist, to publish is work ( layered ) on internet ( Flat, compressed ) without having to edit each picture individually.

== INSTALL ==
Extract the content of the archive to ~/.kde/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/

Via Get Hot New Stuff (doesn't appear for now ): Go to your Dolphin filebrowser, Setting > Configure Dolphin > Services > Download New services > search for Artscript and accept.

== USAGE ==
Select 1 or more image files in Dolphin , right-click then select Artscript in the menu. This will launch Artscript GUI. Do your choice, then apply. Done
Note : if you want to edit the presets, write this in a terminal :
kate ~/.kde/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/artscript.tcl
Then edit from l.47 to l.68 with your watermark preset and sizes, suffix...etc...
