Alright, not that I haven't done this about a billion times, but I can't get this to work and it's bugging me.

I've got a folder with a little over 100 images in it. I created an action to reduce the ppi of an image to 72 ppi. I then tried to automate the action and have it open, play the action, then save the image in a different folder. I believe that I have everything set right, and PS even plays the action.....I see the image open, get reduced and then close. I don't know why it's not saving it to the specified folder. I've run into this before, and fixed it....I just can't remember what I did to fix it Confused

I'll put a screen shot of PS-->the automation is in the middle and my action is to the right (set 2). I don't think that I have to make another step in the action "save", because I thought that the automation did that for me.

Thanks in advance!

NOTE: Where's cbadland at? He'd be proud of me for using "ppi" instead of "dpi"!!!!! LOL!!! LOL Big Wink

Well, I got it....I just added "save" to the action and it worked like a charm. Still, I thought that the automation did that for you anyways? It has that option, and I had it set to save in a folder and the "override save as command" box checked.....seemed like it should've worked. Oh well.
