Actions/Batch Hints

Actions

Actions help you quickly complete repetitive tasks

In this case we are sizing images

Open your file in Photoshop

Click window

And then Actions

Actions are essentially recordings that you will play back using Batch processing

You create a new action

Start recording

Every tool you use will now be recorded

Resize your image and save into a new folder

This will avoid you copying over your original file, which you may need to go back to.

Once you have saved the file and closed it make sure to Stop Recording.


Batch Process


Open up desired folder in bridge (this can also be done from Photoshop).

Go to Tools

Photoshop

Batch….

Choose action

Choose source folder (images you want to resize)

Choose destination folder (folder for newly sized images)
