I think that is a great tool is there a way to change the dpi at the same time?
I save groups of photos as sets one is for print two sets for websites each a differents size.

Hello House,
Yes you can modify anything related to the image. During the recording steps above you can literally record any steps you take to modify an image so just record how you normally modify the DPI and it will perform that action on every image.
Thanks.

Adobe Photoshop is the best photo editing tool in my opinion.Photoshop has been my bread and butter software on my current job which involves a lot of photo editing.

Hello detoxjulie,
There is no question Photoshop is awesome. They just released a free stripped down version of Photoshop for the iPhone which is awesome. The application is available via the iTunes App Store as Photoshop.com. Anyway I love Adobe products.
Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks.

Stuck on one step. I do the save as it is recording and set the jpg size to 8 and then tell it to close the file. However, when I run my batch program, it always prompts me to hit ok for the file size rather than accepting what I told it to in the action step.

Hello Nicole,
Try without closing the file or also maybe try saving as a different type of file type. I know when I did this awhile back I had done so by saving for “Web & Devices” which was saving as a gif in a different method.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.

Hello Nicole,
Nicole
If you still cant get around the jpeg options box, try using the Image Processor >

It worked well for me, but i had to seperate my horizontal pics from my vertical ones, and run a process for each… So the proportions were correct.
Hope this also helps.

Hello Buddy,
Hey thanks for mentioning. I actually had to do the same thing and should have mentioned. I appreciate you taking the time to write the above to hopefully help others if they didn’t figure that part out.
Thanks again.

Thank you for putting this tutorial up. I used this a while back to batch resize for the web and it worked like a charm. BUT…..
I tried it again today (writing a new action so all the document windows close and save on completion of the action) and I keep getting
Image size not currently available (or export or close) every time I run the action.
So I want to open a RAW file (dng)
resize to 72 dpi
save for web
put in destination folder
save as jpeg
close all documents when done
Not sure where I am going off the beaten path here! Would love some direction thanks!

Hello Diane,
The above directions work for me so you might be missing a step or something. The main difference I can think of is you are attempting to do this with .dng files which I have never done. Can you do the steps you are taking manually on .dng files with success? If so then please list the exact steps you are taking along with links to images of the errors you are receiving and we will do our best to help out.
Thanks.

Ok I think I was batch processing this instead of using the script to and “run”. It really helps to re-read the directions. The only thing I want my action to do now is close the file when it is done making a jpeg of it – any way to do that?
Thanks for your help alex

Hello Diane,
No problem. Glad it got worked out… I miss stuff all the time when I read directions… or in fact sometimes I am just to stubborn to read the directions. :) Anyway all that matters if you got the issue resolved and it is working as expected!
Thanks.
