Convert a bunch of images from svg to png

I need to convert from svg to png all the images in a folder. Lets say that images are called test1.svg, test2.svg, ... , testn.svg. Using the following script:

for i in *.svg
do
    convert "$i" PNG24:"$i".png
done

does the job correctly, and the images are called test1.svg.png, test2.svg.png, ... , testn.svg.png. My questions are:

1) Is it possible to make the output images be called test1.png, test2.png, ... , testn.png, essentially removing the 'svg' part from the name?

2) Is it possible to send them directly into some other directory?

Thanks!

Yes. You can make another directory and send them there like this:

mkdir other
for i in *.jpg; do
   convert "$i" PNG24:other/"${i%jpg}png"
done

If you have lots of images to do, and you are on macOS or Linux, I would recommend GNU Parallel to get the job done faster:

mkdir other
parallel convert {} PNG24:other/{.}.png ::: *jpg
