How to convert an image using Finder on macOS Monterey
Image Convert is one of the latest features that Apple has added to its macOS Monterey system. To get there we can do it via Finder. This quick action comes preinstalled with the operating system, so don’t worry, you won’t have to download anything more. In addition to converting the selected image, it will also allow us to change the file size, as well as modify any of the metadata of the image in question.
To convert the image, follow these steps:
- To use the function Convert image In Quick Actions, right-click on an image or select multiple images, then choose the Quick Actions option from the context menu.
- Once you are on Quick Actions in the context menu, click on the option Convert image.
- A dialogue window will open. In her, select format you want to export the image to and the size you want the final product to be. You can choose between small, medium, large and common.
- Touch the box to activate the option to keep metadata of the image.
- Finally, click on the button Convert to [FORMATO].
Ready. Already you should be able to see the newly converted image in the same folder where the originals are located. Of course, this feature won’t alter your original images, so don’t worry, they’ll be safe the entire process. One cool thing is that you can now see Quick Action in Finder while viewing the Pictures folder, so you can get to it even faster than before in case you need it once more at the to come up.
