Hi Everyone!
I'm new here and was wondering if you gurus out there could give me a few tips on scanning multiple photos. Basically, I want to have a shortcut key to import the photos (from my scanner), apply the 'crop and straighten' filter and finally save the files using a numbering system. If this can't be done in one step, how would I go about doing this with 3 seperate shortcut keys. For some reason, the auto-crop/straighten filter doesn't seem to work with my photos which are very contrasting and scanned straight (maybe there's a way to set tolerance). Oh, and I'm using Photoshop CS2.

Thanks,
Jenny :P

Well, you say you're scanning them straight, so I don't understand why you'd need to aut-rotate. Cropping isn't a big deal. Go to edi>keyboard shorcuts and put hotkeys in for rotate 90 deg. Save with whatever names come up aoutomatically, but put them all in one folder. When you're done, go to bridge, right-click on your a scan and go to batch rename.

You scanner might have an option for batch scanning, which will allow you to scan multiple photos and save them to a folder. I don't know of any shortcut or action for file>import. If you go file>import, then go to your scanner, you should be able to batch scan then send them right to photoshop. Once in photoshop, you should be able to make an action for whatever else you want to do to your images.
