untagged jpg images

647 views3 repliesLast post: 3/18/2011
I am trying to find a way to batch process a lot of .jpg pictures that don't have an embedded profile. Bridge makes it very easy to find them, but I don't know how to assign an srgb profile to the untagged ones bridge finds.
Any help would be appreciated.

Create an action to run in batch.
===========================================
Edit -> Convert to Profile (select sRGB)
Save
===========================================
or this action
===========================================
File -> Automate -> Image processor

[x] Save as Jpeg
[x] convert to sRGB
===========================================

Good idea, but don't use 'Convert to profile', use 'Assign Profile'. 'Convert' would first asign your default profile (because Photoshop needs to use *some* color space) and then convert that to sRGB. That would change the colors, unless your default profile happens to be sRGB too.

Thank you for the correction, Johan!
