NAME Add-CropFilter SYNOPSIS 
Creates a filter for cropping images.
SYNTAX Add-CropFilter [[-filter] <ComObject>] [[-image] <ComObject>] [[-left] ] [[-top] ] [[-right] ] [[-bottom] ] [-passThru] [ ameters>] DESCRIPTION 
The Add-CropFilter function adds a Crop image filter to a filter collection. 
It creates a new filter collection if none exists. An image filter is Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) concept. 
Each filter represents a change to an image. 

Add-CropFilter does not crop images; it just creates a crop filter. 
To crop an image, use the Crop method of the Get-Image function, which uses a crop filter that Add-CropFilter creates,  
or the Set-ImageFilter function, which applies the filters. 

All of the parameters of this function are optional.  
Without parameters, Add-CropFilter creates an image filter collection. 
Then it creates a crop filter that is not specific to an image and will not crop image content (values for the Left, Top, Right, and Bottom parameters are 0).

NAME 
Add-RotateFlipFilter
SYNOPSIS 
Creates a filter for rotating images.
SYNTAX Add-RotateFlipFilter [[-filter] <__ComObject>] [[-angle] ] [-flipHorizontal] [-flipVertical] [-passThru] [] DESCRIPTION 
The Add-RotateFlipFilter function adds a RotateFlip filter to an image filter collection. 
It creates a new filter collection if none exists.  

An image filter is Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) concept.  
Each filter represents a change to an image.  

Add-RotateFlipFilter does not rotate or flip images; it only creates a filter.  
To rotate or flip images, use the FlipVertical, FlipHorizontal, RotateClockwise and  
RotateCounterClockwise methods of the Get-Image function, or use the Set-ImageFilter function,  
which applies the filters. 

Unlike other filter functions in the PSImageTools module, Add-RotateFlipFilter does not have an image parameter. 
RotateFlip filters are not specific to an image. 

All parameters of this function are optional.  
If you use Add-RotateFlipFilter without parameters, it creates a RotateFlip filter that does not rotate or flip the image.

NAME 
Add-OverlayFilter
SYNOPSIS 
Creates a filter for overlaying images.
SYNTAX Add-OverlayFilter [[-filter] <ComObject>] [[-image] <ComObject>] [[-left] ] [[-top] ] [-passThru] [] DESCRIPTION 
The Add-OverlayFilter function adds a Stamp filter of an image to a filter collection. 
The stamp filter lets you layer the specified image over another images. 
Add-OverlayFilter creates a new filter collection if none exists.  

An image filter is Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) concept. 
Each filter represents a change to an image.  
Add-OverlayFilter does not overlay images; it only creates a filter.  
To overlay the image use the Set-ImageFilter function, which applies the filters. 

The Image parameter of Add-OverlayFilter is required. You cannot create a stamp (overlay) filter that is not specific to an image.

NAME 
Set-ImageFilter
SYNOPSIS 
Applies an image filter to one or more images.
SYNTAX Set-ImageFilter [[-image] ] [[-filter] <__ComObject[]>] [-passThru] [] DESCRIPTION 
The Set-ImageFilter function changes an image by applying an image filter to the image. 
For example, to crop an image, you can apply a crop filter to the image. 
This strategy is particularly useful when you want to make the same change to many images, such as flipping them all vertically. 

You can change images without a filter by using the methods of the Get-Image function. 
For example, to crop an image, you can use the Crop method of Get-Image. 
Get-Image actually creates the filter for you and applies it.

NAME 
Add-ScaleFilter
SYNOPSIS 
Creates a filter for resizing images.
SYNTAX Add-ScaleFilter [[-filter] <ComObject>] [[-image] <ComObject>] [[-width] ] [[-height] ] [-DoNotPreserveAspectRatio] [-passThru] [ 
]
DESCRIPTION 
The Add-ScaleFilter function adds a scale filter to an image filter collection. 
It creates a new filter collection if none exists.  

An image filter is Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) concept. 
Each filter represents a change to an image.  

Add-ScaleFilter does not resize images; it only creates a filter. 
To resize images, use the Resize method of the Get-Image function, or use the  
Set-ImageFilter function, which applies the filters. 

The Width and Height parameters of this function are required and the Image  
parameter is optional. If you specify an image, you can specify Width and Height  
as percentages (values less than 1). If you do not specify an image, you  
must specify the Width and Height in pixels (values greater than 1).

NAME 
Get-ImageProperty
SYNOPSIS 
Gets the extended properties of images.
SYNTAX Get-ImageProperty [-Image] [] DESCRIPTION 
The Get-ImageProperty function gets properties of an image in addition  
to the properties of the object that Get-Image returns.  

The input to Get-ImageProperty is the COM object that Get-Image returns. 
To use Get-ImageProperty, use the Get-Image function to get the image file. 
Then submit or pipe the output from Get-Image to Get-ImageProperty. 

You can use the extended properties to search and organize your image files. 
You can also use the properties with Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolder to sort the images into file system folders based on their property values.

NAME 
ConvertTo-Jpeg
SYNOPSIS 
Converts an image to a JPEG.
SYNTAX ConvertTo-Jpeg [[-Image] ] [[-Quality] ] [] DESCRIPTION 
The ConvertTo-JPEG function converts image files to JPEG file format.

ConvertTo-JPEG takes only COM-based image objects of the type that Get-Image returns. 
To use this function, use the Get-Image function to create image objects for the image files,  
then submit the image objects to ConvertTo-JPEG. 

The converted files have the same name and location as the original files but with a .JPG file name extension. 
If a file with the same name already exists in the location, ConvertTo-JPEG declares an error.

NAME 
Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolder
SYNOPSIS 
Copies images into folders organized by characteristics that you specify.
SYNTAX Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolder [-Path] [-Property] [-Filter ] [-Include ] [-Exclude ] [-Recurse] [-HideProgress] [ monParameters>] Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolder [-Path] [-ScriptBlock] [-Filter ] [-Include ] [-Exclude ] [-Recurse] [-HideProgres s] [] DESCRIPTION 
The Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolder function uses properties or script blocks that you specify to create folders on disk.  
Then it copies the image files into the correct folders based on their property values. 

Use the Path parameter to specify the image files to copy.  
The Include, Exclude, Filter, and Recurse parameters qualify the Path parameter.  
These parameter work in Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolders in the same way that they work in the Get-ChildItem cmdlet. 

Use the Property and ScriptBlock parameters to establish criteria for organizing the image files into folders. 

Copy-ImageIntoOrganizedFolder calls both the Get-Image and Get-ImageProperty functions on every image that you submit. 
Therefore, you can use the basic properties that Get-Image gets or the extended properties that Get-ImageProperty gets to organize your images.
