Photoshop :: Batch Action For Raw Files From Different Camera Models?
Oct 11, 2012I want to create a batch action that will process raw files by setting their workflow resolution option and image settings in camera raw.  I can create a batch action by recording an open command for a raw file, setting the workflow resolution and image settings, and then stopping the action recording.Â
Â
This creates an open action which captures the resolution , images settings instruction , and other settings for camera raw, but it also captures the camera model and workflow options are specific to a camera model.  If I then use the action on multiple raw files from different cameras, raw files from the camera specified in the 'open' step will get processed as I want, but raw files from any other camera model will get processed with whatever workflow resolution option was used the last time I manually opened a file from that model in ACR.
Â
I tried recording an 'open' step by bringing raw files from 3 different cameras into ACR and selecting to open them in photoshop, but that created three 'open' steps, one for each camera model, in the action. Running that action produced three versions of every image from every camera model. No good.
Â
How can I create an action that will set the workflow resolution option based on the camera model, when images from different camera models are being processed in the batch?
Â
I am using PSCS5 and ACR 6.7
Photoshop :: Batch Processing - New Files Created Inside Action Are Overwriting Each Other?
Sep 8, 2013I have 100's of flat images that I have to chop up into 3 parts and save as individual pieces to then load into a separate piece of software.
My problem is that when I start the batch, the 3 new images it creates for each image are simply overwriting each other when saving.
The options for serial numbers etc in the destination field of batch seems to only work for the original file opened, not the 3 new images the action creates/saves.
Illustrator :: Batch Action Delete Art From WMF Files
Feb 13, 2013I am running a batch action that deletes some art from WMF files, and then saves them. When I run the batch, I am prompted to save an .AI file which is named the same as the WMF files that I am processing. This occurs every for every file, stopping the batch to prompt for saving the .AI file.

Oct 3, 2011I created an Action to batch export a folder of .ai files to create 300dpi .png's of the .ai file's artboard. I did this by simply recording "Export...as png" with my desired settings then Batch running the Action on desired folder of .ai files. The files were successfully exported, the trouble is that the exported files lack a .png file extension. My intent is to take these PNG files and merge them into a single PDF using Acrobat Pro. Unfortunatly, without the .PNG extension, Acrobat Pro does not recognize the file types and does not let me use the Combine Files feature on them. Going back and manually adding a .png at the end of the exported files defeats the time-saving purpose of Batch Processing all together. Is there something I am missing or doing incorrectly? I have included screenshots of 1) My Batch Action settings 2) folders showing files without .png extension and 3) visual of what I see when I am trying to combine PNGs into a PDF.

Photoshop :: Batch Convert Several Thousand TIFF Files To Lossless JPEG-2000?
Jun 27, 2013I am trying to batch convert several thousand TIFF files to lossless JPEG-2000, but I can't get it to work.
Â
When I open a single file and "Save as" JPEG-2000 with the lossless option checked, the result is truly lossless. But when I record this as an Action and then Automate/Batch this action, the output is not saved as lossless.

I selected 4 RAW files (CR2) to convert to DNG via the Library modules 'convert to DNG' and then delete the CR2 file.

It converted only the last of the 4 files and left the other 3 untouched as CR2 files. Can LR not batch convert the RAW files in this manner??
CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Batch Convert DWG Files
Jul 28, 2011I've received quite a few DWG files and I would like to batch convert them into PDFs so I can share them with the sales staff. Also, DRAW deals with PDFs much better than DWG and the added feature that the PDFs will have all outlines converted to black.
My workflow now is to open each DWG in DWG True view and plot it to PDF using there built-in engine. It works but I have to convert all outlines to black inside DRAW plus I have to do each file one at a time. I've downloaded a trial version of deskDOC DWG to PDF with less than stellar results .

Feb 19, 2009Some years ago purchased CorelGallery 1,300,000. The vector clipart came in a .CCX format.
However, the Gallery browser no longer loads into my Service Packed Windows XP. Also XP and Vista cannot display .CCX thumbnails in their respective Explorers.
Today I discovered if I change the file type from .CCX to .CMX. the thumnail displays.
My challenge is how to covert about 500,000 files from one to the other en masse.

Nov 20, 2002I’m sitting here with 200+ images that I need to trim a little from the top and bottom. I really don’t feel like doing this one at a time so I though: “Hey, let’s make an action then use the batch function”. After been relived that I didn’t have to do every image one by one I realized that I had no clue how to make this action or how to use the batch function.

Photoshop :: CC 14.0 / Automate Batch Action
Jul 30, 2013I'm seeing a strange issue when I automate an action in Photoshop CC (14.0). I have a simple action that does three things in this order:
1. Flatten Image
2. Convert to 8-Bit
3. Add some standard file info
Â
When I run the action from the action menu it works fine. However when I have multiple images open and I want to run them all through the action using "Automate->Batch", it gets run in this order:
2. Convert to 8-Bit
3. Add some standard file info
1. Flatten Image

The same process in CS6 does not have the issue.
Photoshop :: How To Create Action / Batch
Feb 8, 2012I have 200 tiffs in one folder (each tiff is named 'image 1-200') all without an alpha channel.
I have 200 different tiffs in another folder (named 'luma matte 1-200').
I've have copied the first images of the 'luma matte 1.tiff' (a black and white image) and pasted it into a newly created alpha layer in 'the image 1.tiff' channel window.
I save this out as a new tiff called 'composite 1' and it works in the way I require it to work.
How would I automate this process rather than having to do it individually for all the 200 files. I'm not sure if this can be done with a series of actions/batch? I dont want to use After Effects luma key as this isn't giving me the correct results.
Photoshop :: Using Action And Batch To Reduotone
May 31, 2009Hey guys, I am working as a volunteer designer with an organization that publishes a guide listing sponsors that donate services of financial support. This guide is duotoned, and the colors of the duotone will vary with the season - light and dark blue for winter, light and dark green for spring, yellow and red for summer, etc. the colors for every season is different, and all of the graphic elements in the guide must be reduotoned to match the color scheme in order to be printed properly. I have been running into problems. I want to use the action and batch utilities in Photoshop in order to change the duotone colors of the pictures, but I want to keep the levels graph for each file. I don't want to change the levels graphs for each file, I just want to change the duotone colors I have been doing the following: 1. collect all graphic elements into a folder. these are all .eps format, and have been duotoned already. The darker pantone is the first color listed, the lighter pantone the second as a standard, so that the colors won't be assigned to the wrong levels graphs through automation. 2. Open one of the files. create an action and record image->mode->duotone, and change the colors of the duotone. stop recording. Close the file without saving. 3. go to file->automate->batch..., select source folder as in 1., select destination as another folder (empty). select action set and action as in 2. The pantone colors are changed properly. My problem is the following: the levels graphs for each of the files being duotoned are changed to the graphs that were present in the graphic that I used to make the action. Is there a solution to this problem? I don't have any real experience in writing scripts for Photoshop, but am willing to learn if it is not too complicated. I have photoshop 7 at home and CS2 at the office.

Jun 12, 2008I need to change the size of 200 pics, then save them for web at a certain format.
Problem is, that right now the batch saves the pics I want with the name I used previously, when I created the action, while I am actually aiming for it to save the file (in a new folder) with it's own name, so it would not have to ask me to replace the existing file.
Photoshop :: Did A Batch Action, But Where Are My Images Going?
Oct 5, 2006I ran a batch action. The action performed on all the images, I did a save and close, but then I open the folder and the change did not happen. Tried twice. So next time, I choose instead of save and close to save to new folder. the batch ran action on all images ,and the new folder is empty. I've tried the override save as checked and unchecked.

Sep 30, 2003I'm using Photoshop 7.01. I have a bunch of 16-bit TIFFs that I want to batch convert to 8-bit JPEG FINE.
I created a manual action, which works fine, hook it up to F2 and open up 50 tiffs at the same time. Start hitting F2 and the files disappear and I end up with a nice bunch of jpegs.
Now I want to automate it, so I create a new action.
Open TIFF
Change to 8-bit
Save as jpeg
Close
When I run a batch, choose a source folder and target folder, and kick it off, I see all the files open and close, but only the first one (used in my example to create the action) ends up as a jpeg, followed by a bunch of TIFFs.
As far as I can tell, the action opens all the files one after the other, but it always saves the same file.
So, in my output folder, I get 1 JPEG followed by 250 different TIFFs, but the JPEG always appears on my screen for a split second during the save sequence, so it looks like it is being saved 250 times...

1) convert to cmyk
2)save copy as JPG with 11 quality level
3) save to folder A
4) image size to 72 dpi
5) covert to RGB
6) save as JPG 6 quality level
7) save to folder B
8) close file and discard cahnges.

Everything runs like heaven, but the moment I want to batch several files everything stalls.
Â
I choose file > Batch > Choose my set > choose my action
Source > I choose where my files are (usually a PDF)
then I use "Supress file open options dialogs"
Destination>Â Since I already have set destinations y my actions, I choose here a "dump" folder
On errors > I hit Save As... and put a name for that log.
Â
Then photohop opens my PDF on Photoshop and does nothing! It keeps my file open. I ma about to work with 400 files to batch, and this batch system does not work.

Jan 4, 2009I am not sure if this is a change in CS4 or something that I am doing incorrectly. But when I run Bridge CS4 < Photoshop < Image Processor (running an action that I have been running since CS2) the files do not close in photoshop after running the action. In all prior versions of PSCS#, photoshop closed the file after finishing the action. The files all save properly. But having hundreds of files opened inside of photoshop causes the scratch disk to go low and slows everything down.

Photoshop :: Batch Action In CS6 Ignoring Destination Folder?
Apr 13, 2013I have an action I have been using once every year for several years in a batch automation process in Photoshop. Its purpose is to resize all the images in a specified folder and save the new versions (using the same filename) in another folder. Both folders are specified in the Batch dialogue, which is also set to override any Action 'Save As' commands. This procedure worked without any difficulties using CS4. Today, I tried running it for the first time under CS6 and it failed on the very first image.
Â
The problem is that it is triggering a request for my permission to save the image as a copy. The reason is that it is trying to save the modified file in the source folder and ignoring my specified (different) destination folder.
