rawtherapee: An advanced cross-platform program for developing raw photos.

OPTIONS

-o <output file>|<output dir>: select output directory.
-O <output file>|<output dir>: select output directory and copy the PP3 file into it.
-s: use the PP3 processing profile located next to the input file (which shares same name as the input file) when building the processing parameters, e.g.: for IMG001.NEF there should be a IMG001.NEF.pp3 in the same directory. If such a file is not found, the default values are used.
-S: like -s but skip processing that image if its corresponding PP3 file is not found.
-p <PP3 file>: specify a PP3 processing profile to be used for all conversions. You can specify as many -p options as you like (see note below).
-d: use the default raw or non-raw PP3 file to build the image's parameters (specified in the options file).
-j[1-100]: specify output to be JPEG (default). The compression value can be in the range 1-100. If none was specified, the default compression value is 90, balanced subsampling (4:2:2).
-t: specify output to be uncompressed 8 bit per channel TIFF.
-t1: specify output to be zip-compressed 8 bit per channel TIFF.
-n: specify output to be 8 bit per channel PNG with a compression value of 6.
-Y: overwrite output if present.

Note:

You can use partial PP3 files, in which case RawTherapee will set the missing values as follows:

  The PP3 file is first built with internal default values;

  then overridden by those found in the "default raw" or "default non-raw" photo

profile (if -d has been set);

  then overridden by those found in the PP3 files provided by -p, each one

overriding the previous values;

  then overridden by the sidecar file if -s is set and if the file exists;

  the time when the sidecar file is used depends of the position of the -s

switch in the command line relative to the -p parameters (e.g. "-p first.pp3 -p second.pp3 -s -p fourth.pp3").
