3 Olive Studios Quick tip: Photoshop and batching

1. In Photoshop cs4 go to windows>actions. This will bring up the actions palette.

2. In the drop down menu of the actions palette (the little down arrow in the upper right-hand corner), select "new action".

3. Name the action and assign a function key (for example,name: resize; function key: f1). Assigning a function key will allow the action or actions to occur everytime you press that key.

4. Press record

5.Everything you do after you press record will be part of this action until you press stop. So, for example, if you want to resize photos to 100x100, then (with one photo open) press record, go to object>image resize>100x100>ok> and then PRESS STOP. If you assigned the function key 'f1' to this action, then every time you have a document open in photoshop and you press f1, the action will apply
