Anybody managed to do a gimp batch execution of bitonal-converter-batch without starting the GUI? I am trying this: :\app\ocr\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\bin\gimp-console-2.8.exe -i -f -d --verbose -b (bitonal-converter-batch 'C:\data\perma\tmp4\ok1' 'jpg' 'tif' 20 220 0.67 6 1 1 1 33 240 120) -b "(gimp-q...
