Does anyone know how to automate (i.e., via "batch") setting a MAXIMUM (or MINIMUM) dimension for a group of images?

If the original images are all the same orientation (i.e., either portrait or landscape), it’s easy; but what if the originals are not the same orientation?

For example, I have a folder of images–some portrait, some landscapes–and I want to convert them all to thumbnails with a MAXIMUM DIMENSION of 150 pixels.

I can’t figure out how to do this with the several-hundred-dollar Photoshop (although I can figure out how to do it with the $49 LView Pro…).

???

Thanks!!

I’d just do a folder for landscape images, and one for portrait images. Run an Action with the dimensions that you desire on the respective folder.

OTOH, if you can do what you want in LView, why not use it?

PS sorry for the empty RE: mouse button stuck and I hit the wrong spot.

Use File-Automate-Fit Image instead of Image-Image Size. Use 150 – 150 values.
You may want to record the action first if you want to use it in a batch.
