Answer» I have a function that doesn't work in context, but does as an independent program. One of the 3rd party external commands I am using (convert) is throwing a Invalid Parameter error. Any ideas why?
Both montage and convert are from imagemagick = http://www.imagemagick.org/index.php

convert pg_2.jpg 2.pdf
::del *.jpg
popd
goto :eof
would giving the full name with file extension help SINCE the system might not know that convert is an EXE for example so if convert is an exe you can change it to:
T:\mtg\packs\pack_1>..\..\convert.exe pg_1.jpg pg_1.pdf
T:\mtg\packs\pack_1>..\..\convert.exe pg_2.jpg pg_2.pdf
Not sure if you would also have to place the pg_1.jpg pg_1.pdf within " " or not as well, but I'd try first without the " "
I have run into similar issues with some perl scripts that I made that call to other utilities etc to perform processes beyond that of batch etc, and adding the full name with file extension fixed it for me.
CONVERT is an internal command to Windows. So you need to specify the full path to the convert program you are using.

I will try that, but I don't think that's the issue as the program is executing. It just isn't recognizing one of the inputs that It would normally recognize.

Yes it is executing Windows Convert command. See my output. LOOKS just like your error.
Code: [Select]C:\Users\Squashman>convert pg_1.jpg 1.pdf
Invalid Parameter - 1.pdf
QuoteIt just isn't recognizing one of the inputs that It would normally recognize.
Do the files have to be within " " MAYBE?
such as
T:\mtg\packs\pack_1>..\..\convert.exe "pg_1.jpg pg_1.pdf"
T:\mtg\packs\pack_1>..\..\convert.exe "pg_2.jpg pg_2.pdf"Oh, I didn't realize windows had a convert command. That fixed it, thanks!
Quote from: Lemonilla on December 14, 2014, 06:08:40 PMOh, I didn't realize windows had a convert command. That fixed it, thanks!
Been there for almost 20 years. Basically since Windows NT came out.

I got caught by this when I first started using Image Magick. In batch scripts you have to run the batch from the same folder as the IM convert.exe program, or provide the full path to it, or rename the IM program, e.g. to imconvert.exe, or you can rename the Windows c:\windows\System32\convert.exe to something else (it converts FAT volumes to NTFS and if you have bever heard of it, you probably don't need it, and if you subsequently do, you can rename it back).
