[Stones] Batch Convert jpg to tif / chat list

[David Shugarts]

There is also a feature expressly for this purpose, built into PhotoShop and
hardly noticed by most users. They call it the Image Processor, and you can
read about it under PhotoShop's Help menus.

Before you go through the entire batch, I would suggest one more thought--if
the files are in RGB mode and they are going into a printing process, they
will probably want them converted to CMYK as well.
