 Posted: Thu Apr 03, 2008 5:14 am Post subject: question about batch and actions |
 |
|
I've been looking for this one a long time, but I just don't get it to work properly. The problem is this, I need to save a whole lot of pictures into jpeg in my PS file. But the time it takes me for selecting every one of them and pushing ctrl shift s, then inputting the number and save as jpeg. Is driving me horribly insane.
So I looked up some things on google, but that didn't help, thus I landed here. I know you could do this with the automate - batch command but I simply don't get it to work. Using the action command doesn't help either, it saves the picture but always overwrites the former one (since it always saves with the same name)
Hope someone has an answer for me.
Hello btw  |

Hi,
Have you tried "file > Scripts > Image Processor"?
It's a bit simpler than the "Batch" and doesn't require any action for batch converting/resizing.
Regards,

Unfortunately I didn't get that to work either. I think I need to explain it better. All of the images I need to save as jpeg's are al in individual layers. So I need a way to autamatically save all the picture layers into seperate jpeg files. |

Hey rurouni_tidus,
Have you tried
File > Scripts > Export Layers to Files.
Hope this helps

Thank you so much! I can't believe I overlooked this ^^
This will save me a ton of work!
But what if I want them to be numbered? Layer 1 becomes 1, layer 2 becomes 2, ... Because now I do have all my seperate images, but I have to rename every single one of them. |

Glad it helped!
The export layers to files script isn't all that robust when it comes to the naming convention of the files it's creating. I'd suggest working with the script, and then using the batch rename command inside the Adobe Bridge to rename the files quickly and easily.
Hope this helps
