Image resize via batch

319 views2 repliesLast post: 6/9/2005
Hello group,

I have to resize a lot of images with different dimensions (8 and 24 bit, tif format).
I will resize all images to 2000 pixel on the longest side, so I can't use an action with a percent value.
The other problem ist that the images are turned in different positions (portrait and landscape format)

Is there a chance to do this automaticly with an action and how can I do it? Or is a plugin available which I can use for this work?

thx for the help and best regards from germany,
Rolf

See File->Automate->Fit Image... for the resizing step in the action.

For the saving step, it may be simplest to close the image and click "Yes" when it asks if you want to save it. The step in the action will be recorded as "Close with saving" so the file format will be preserved.
