View Full Version : Image reduction software?
Hey all, Happy New Year.
What's a good program to reduce batches of photos into websize pics? Photoshop looks like it wants to do more than one at a time with "Save for Web", but I can't work out how...
Thanks

Create a Photoshop action using "Fit Image" (under file/automate) and
whatever else you want to add to the action. (Maybe sharpen, stroke, © etc)
Then run a "Batch" (under file/automate) using a folder and the action you
created....
HTH,
Cameron

The really simply way to do this is with Windows XP. You get the utility
from Microsoft's site and it's free. Right click a directory full of images
and it will resize them all to whatever you say.
