Photoshop :: Batch File Size Conversion
Jun 19, 2009
I have an older version of Photoshop, (7.0), but I'm sure the Batch Conversion Process is similar with all versions. I have a folder of photos, (large file sizes), I'd like to reduce each file size to a little bigger than a Thumnail size. This is hopefully something I can do bysetting the same parameters to all the photos. Here's what I've figured out (so far)FileAutomateBatchChoose Source FolderChoose Destination Folder That's about it - when I choose both folders, I can't seem to pull up the parameters to reduce the file sizes.

Whenever I open the batch conversion window a file always appears in the main file list window; I have to manually remove it (pressing clear) before using the browse button.

I've to inseart a color overlay in a 200 icon set.
Till last week the batch tool was working properly to do this action. Since yesterday, when I use the same action the batch works but the files are with 25KB (before they were between 100 to 200 bytes).

I have about 1000 images that need to all be resized to 5MB. All the images are in different color modes, have different resolutions and pixel sizes. Is there any way to make an action to resize image to 5MB? I don't care about pixel dimentions or resolutions, I just need all the images to be 5MB.
I'm running Photoshop CS 2 on Mac OS X 10.4

does anyone know if it's possible to export a desired (fixed) file size with a batch automation in Photoshop? For example:
I have 50 images (*.jpg) that have different file sizes (25k, 15k, 45k etc) now I would like to export a fixed file size to 10k for all images...
I have tried this in Photoshop and in Fireworks, but the Programs exported 10K or less and sometimes even greater than 10k
I would really be happy if someone knows a way to do this or if there are any stand-alone programs that can automate and export targeted file sizes.

I'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...

Up until a month or so ago, using photoshop CS5 - windows, a batch psd conversion of nummerous files say fred1. psd through fred10.psd gave me fred1 jpeg through fred10.jpeg. I saveconversions to a dump jpeg folder on another drive where there are also, dump psd and dump tiff with tiff not being much used.
Â
Using actions, the first conversion of a series will be fred.jpeg but thereafter it will be fred1 copy.jpeg through fred10 copy .jpeg. No big deal for a few files as the word copy can be deleted. However, if a jpeg file say fred.jpeg needs to be updated in say a slide show or web site then the new conversion of the updated file as fred copy.jpeg causes identity problems.
Â
how can I return to the situation where fred.psd becomes fred.jpeg and not fred copy.jpeg. This does not seem to happen for individual conversions the manual way. I tried to convert to jpeg 2000 but the same happened. I'm not sure about jpeg 2000 and how it would work if taking to a phot processor for "photographic" prints.

I have a folder full of images and I'd like them all to be in the 8x6 ratio, with white as the background if any canvas size needs to be changed. I can do a batch and make every picture a canvas size of 800x600, but if the original is 1100x240 that doesn't help me much, I'll loose alot of the image's width.
So I just want to convert the image's canvas size to be in the ratio of 8x6. Is this possible with Photoshop CS or Photoshop CS2?

>ap alterations. I have collected many (over 100k) screeenshots of census data. In the interest of not using the actual captures (intelectual property restrictions), I have extracted the data alone to a new multi layered file with each address as its own layer. Some have 1 person, some have 200 people.
Can I export each layer to file in such a way that the canvas will not be the 75 inch canvas in the parent image? I needed to use such a large transparent background because population density is very high. Is ther an autodetect feature?

I've tried to convert several files using "Process multiple files" in Photoshop Elements 10. Input files are CMYK psd files with one layer and transparent background. They should be resized and converted to PNG. It works excepting the transparency in the PNG files is missing - the background is white instead. The conversion works however if I open a single file, convert it to RGB after prompt and save it as PNG. The background is transparent as it should.
Â
So why my pngs are not transparent when using batch conversion?

I have about 500+ idws that has to be converted to dwg. No problem I thought... just use the task scheduler and create a task (Convert IDW to DWG) to do it.
That works.... but there is a small problem. The DWG that it saves has the data in paper space. Of coarse, the customer requires it to be in Model Space.
Is there a way to do this with the Task Scheduler? or some other way, short of manually opening/saving each idw. I don't own KwikBatch Runx64 and was hoping we could do this without purchasing something else.

I need to convert from bitmap images to PNGs with the command line. I've tried looking into script-fu, but lisp is one of those languages I could never figure out.
I've tried using imagemagick, but it did not properly convert the images. The images are apparently 32bit Windows Bitmap V3 files with an alpha channel; according to a page I found on google, imagemagick will not preserve the alpha channel in this particular case. I don't know for certain if that's the actual reason why imagemagick isn't working, but it definitely isn't working. It does, however, work if done manually in gimp.
This is going to be part of a python script, so I need it to convert a specific bitmap file rather than all the ones in a directory.

In 2006 I started a vector-based comic using CorelDraw, made for posting on the web in RGB. Over the years I've made the transition to a more CMYK-friendly palette that works on the web, though a handful of heritage characters still have the old RGB profiles. I'm looking to do a book collection now and, as such, want to convert these characters' specific colors to their fitting CMYK counterparts.
Is there a batch process that allows me to convert a specific handful (maybe 2 dozen) colors RGB --> CMYK across a number of files? I'm looking at hundreds of pages of artwork here, so even Corel's Object Find/Replace would be a tedious slough.

I need to convert a large number of drawings from Imperial to Metric (I have copied that drawings and intend to save as a metric set, so I'll be overwriting (and possible appending "-METRIC" to the file name.) So I wrote a batch file to collect the drawings then apply a conversion (autocad) script.
I also created a script to close the drawings that would run after a batch (i.e. subdirectory (say 20 drwgs)).
If I open the drawings manually and run the scripts, they work fine, however I have been unable to automate the procedure.
Batch to collect files:
SET ACAD2013PATH="C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2013"
FOR /R c:ACADCrosby-Converted_to_Metric est %%f in (*.dwg) do start /wait %ACAD2013PATH%acad.exe%%f /b c:ACADscale-imperial-to-metric.scr
start /wait %ACAD2013PATH%acad.exe c:ACADCloseACAD.scr
[code]...

I need to export many library elements (conveyors) which are saved in individual blocks to mass objects. I need to convert them to IGES after that.
Until now I have to open every single block and convert all of it to a mass element. This simply takes too long.
Is it possible to write a small script or program which converts all blocks or the selected blocks to mass elements?

I have a text layer with width given at its creation. When I later open text editor and enter some wider text, it is wrapped to second line. So I would like to enhance the width of the layer to prevent this. When I add width to the layer using "Layer Boundary Size" menu item, text layer gets converted into standard bitmap layer . I don't understand the logic why a text layer isn't preserved on change of its size .
Is there a way how I can adjust size of text layer without its conversion to a bitmap?

I have 115 files that I need to create six files respectively from each, a total of 690 files. Each of the batched six files are different sizes and the last two numbers need to change. For example, I start with 781.08, from there I get 781.08_1, 781.08_2. 781.08_3 up to _6.
I made actions in Photoshop, but they did not keep the current file name I was working on such as 782.08, it defaulted back to the file name in which I build the actions in such as 781.08.
This seems easy enough, but not sure what the solution is to both re-size and rename the files in a batch process.

I have a folder of images that range in size... but for the most part they are all smaller than the actual size I wish them to be. (For example: some are perfectly at 250 x 250. Some are 65 x 250. Some are 128 x 180. The point being that they all vary. )
What I need to do is have these images created and outputted at a size of 250 x 250. Every single one of them. Unfortunately I have 5000 that need to be resized. What I would normally do is create a new image at the size of 250 x 250 (background white) and import the smaller one (let's say 128 x 180) and center it. Then save the new one. Easy.
However, I would like to know how to do this "en batch". I'm sure it's possible, but I have very little experience with Photoshop.

I do know how to batch resize photos using adobe bridge and then tools>photoshop>image processor.... and resize but what i want to know is how to batch resize images to a specific size width and height without having to keep proportion.
Because right now i have a bunch of photos that are 2896 x 1944 pixels but i need it to resize to 1920 x 1080 for a stop motion clip. However photoshop wants to keep it in proportion and resizes it to 1608 x 1080 which is not what i want but i dont want to have to do them one at a time.
