Batch processing is quite a tedious job if there are numerous files but Adobe Photoshop is a tool that simplifies this process to a considerable level. Below mentioned are the steps to be followed through the process.
-
We can convert the files using image processor. This conversion is easy and we don’t have to perform a lot of actions.
-
There is an action palette option in Photoshop through which one can prepare the photos and the same process of conversion can be applied to various images. This whole process is known as batch.
-
This can be a time saving job as zip folders can be easily created with the same task.
Now, to understand the process more clearly we will take an example, to resize the image that is taken from a digital camera. As the resolutions of digital cameras are very high with high number of pixels, here we will take a process how to reduce the pixel size:
We just need some digital camera images and Photoshop. For this, it is essential that one should know how to work in Photoshop and manage the process. The whole action is given as follows:
-
Firstly, open Adobe Photoshop and an image of larger pixels in the window of Photoshop.
-
Go to Actions option to get the action palette.
-
Open a new action and type “Resizing of Image”.
-
Now, click on the record button.
-
Then, go to the Photoshop menu bar and in image bar there is an option of image size, go for that option.
-
One can set the pixels from the drop down menu. You can also adjust the width if you want and click OK button.
-
Again go to the action palette and click on the ‘Stop’ button is there. The recording will be stopped.
-
Now go to the Play Header option and search for the ‘’Resizing of Image’’ in the drop down menu.
-
In source header, go to the ‘Original Folder’ that is created in some drive or desktop.
-
Lastly, click OK.
Now, Photoshop will save the original images in the original image folder and resized image in the resize folder. By just clicking on OK button, the image will be automatically saved in the folder and cursor will go to the next image. If one gets comfortable with the batch process, then he can also perform other operations in Photoshop easily and can edit images in a considerably lesser time span as otherwise.
