Hi: I have moved from using attachment_fu with files stored in the DB to Paperclip using S3. The trick now is to migrate the files from the DB to S3. I have tried a few methods like: SThreeFile.create(:file => AttachmentFuFile.first.data) and @attachment = AttachmentFuFile.first SThreeFile.create(:file => ActionController::Streaming.send_data @attachment.data, :filename =>

After a post on the Paperclip Google Group, someone suggested the :convert_options could be passed additional attributes, like ''quality'',
