To run the tool, you need to configure bftools and vips. To do that, follow the instructions below for the operating system of interest:
-
Download bftools (click here)
-
Install vips and JDK
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
sudo apt install libvips-tools
To install bftools and vips, I recommend using Powershell as much as possible to automate the installation steps.

- Uncompress downloaded file and place it at an appropriate place, like at home
unzip ~/Downloads/vips-dev-w64-all-8.15.3.zip
mv ~/Downloads/vips-dev-w64-all-8.15.3/vips-dev-8.15/ ~/vips-dev-8.15/
- Add path to
vips.exe
to the PATH (requires powershell administrator)
$Env:PATH += ";$HOME/vips-dev-8.15/bin/"
