Batch resizing images with preview

When I try to batch resize images in Preview I have an error message: not enough space reduce volume?

File - Automate - FitImage
or
File - Scripts - Image Processor
Both should do what you want.

How do I batch resize images with different aspect ratios?

How do I batch resize images with different aspect ratios?

Landscape: I want result to be 1960 x 1103 px and 72 ppi whether the original is 300 ppi or 220 ppi and wether it is 2Mb or 10 Mb. Cropped centered top and bottom.
There will be a set of Landscapes that that have a narrower aspect ratio the 1960:1103 that would also need the top and bottom cropped like all Portraits would could be. You need to realize that center cropping Landscape image that have aspect ratios near 1960:1103 will usually produce acceptable compositions. However Cropping wide panoramas and portraits will only produce acceptable landscape 1960:1103 composition occasionally.
Here you will see what happens when image have aspect ratio the do not fit the desired aspect ratio. Where Landscape are forced to portrait and portrait forced to Landscape. Here are two Collage I populated with a mixture of image with different aspect ratios. One collage has all 3:2 Landscape places and the other 2:3 Portrait places.
I create a 1 image 1960x1103 collage 72dpi and create those too. Note the landscape boy foot is cropped off 3:2 is narrow compared to 1960:1103

Problem trying to batch resize images from bridge.

I am trying to batch resize images from bridge. I am on windows 7 desktop and using CC, I select the images in bridge, tool bar>tools>photoshop>image processor. After doing this, photoshop CC opens but no images open.

open photoshop, open actions pallette, click new action (windows > actions (or Alt+f9)), click record, open your image, resize it, click stop action.
then use file> automate > batch
the action you just recorded will be ready to use, select the folder with all your photos (wise to work on a duplicated folder incase you mess up)
run the action. wait while photoshop opens and resizes the images one by one.
check in folder if the images resized how you expected.

Resizing Images with Photoshop programatically (SDK) ?

Hello,
We have more 100,000+ master images that must be resized down programatically (over a nightly batch job). We are losing photoquality when resizing these images (JPEGs). However, when I resize these images in Photoshop, it produces very high quality images.
This needs to be done programatically, is there an option to buy an SDK from Adobe where we can programatically resize these images on the fly?
Basically, we need to use the same mechanism that photoshop uses to resize images, because it does a wonderful job of preserving the image quality, but we need programatic access to it.
Thanks,
Raman

The SDK is free, and downloadable by anyone.
But it sounds like all you need is an action and the batch command, or a javascript -- which don't require the SDK.
But these are not libraries - they use the Photoshop application.
There are no libraries to do what Photoshop does.

Muse resizing image on Preview

Here's a new issue bugging the h-e-double hockey sticks out of me!
Recently I switched domain hosts and decided it was the best time to update my mobile site. I made a copy of the old site and completely redesigned the Desktop copy of the new site. Then, when starting to revise the mobile site something strange happened.
I copied my Mobile "Master" page objects from the old site to the new site. After pasting them in place I wanted to preview the layout for any necessary tweaks. The background image in the header, as well as the menu and my logo resized to about 75% upon displaying the page.
I went back to the old site and verified my top of page and leader locations were exact duplicates, as well as the bottom of the page. I clicked Preview and the Master page displayed perfectly. Went over to the new site and the error repeated. I opened the original website template I purchased from Musegrid.com and copied all elements from that Master to my new Master -- same issue.
OK, so maybe there's a problem with the image. I deleted the old image and placed a copy of the original image from the assets folder. Same issue. Maybe I messed up something in the header? I moved all objects other than the background image off of the canvas. Same issue. I recorded a quick screen cap so you don't think I'm crazy. Actually I'm only minutes away. Care to stop in and join me?
My wife made a fresh batch of her award winning chocolate chip cookies. I'll send 2 dozen to whoever helps me resolve this issue!
BTW this is the new November release!

Thanks for your efforts to help me!
First, here are the first three screen shots of the original temple from the package I bought from musegrid.com:
As you can see the template previews fine and scrolls top to bottom as it was designed.
Next, I duplicated the page properties, Top of Page/Header settings from the working template to my new template with the exception of the logo that would be replaced anyway:
Next, I clicked preview and every element from the bottom of the page up was resized. The white rectangle serving as the background being resized allowed the elements on the bottom of the page to become visible in this view without scrolling:
This is what’s so frustrating. I’m am relatively new to Muse so naturally I’m certainly not an expert; but regarding technology in general I’m far from a novice as I have MCSE, Apple 10.7 and FCPX certifications. Anyone with a solution is welcome to call!

Best way to batch resize images in nested folder hierarchy?

Hello,
I'm looking for help on [what is probably] a classic problem related to content sites.
I'm launching a content site that has numerous articles, and attached to each article is a number of images. The raw site assets are currently set up in a folder hierarchy like this:
Overall site assets folder
Category One folder
Article One folder
Unmodified images folder
Resized, production-ready images folder
Article Two folder
Unmodified images folder
Resized, production-ready images folder
Etc..., etc....
There are hundreds of articles in this hierarchy.
I'm looking for a script that will take every image in each "Unmodified" folder and save a resized copy to the "Resized" folder, preferably with different settings for vertical and horizontal images (though I'll be OK with just fixing the width if need be).
I realize that I can do this manually and locally within each folder with a droplet, but between droplets / actions / plug-ins or third-party tools, is there an easy way to accomplish this across a large nested hierarchy with many folders as long as the Unmodified and Resized folders are nested together? And what about horizontal vs. vertical images?
THANKS!!!!!!
Scott

Ahhh, I understand what you're saying. I'm downloading and installing this CS6 script, which might be along the lines of what I'm looking for:
Dr. Brown Services - Image Processor Pro
http://www.e-zest.net/blog/photoshop-cs6-save-for-web-images-batch-processing-keeping-nest ed-folder-structure-intact/
Photoshop supports recording the actions and the facility to run that action for batch processing. But it also has a couple of limitations up to Photoshop cs6 as mentioned below –
Photoshop does not maintain the source, hereditary/nested folder structure for the output (destination) images. Save for web only saves all the files to the folder specified when you record the action.
In case of some file handling issues, Photoshop action throws an error & pauses/stops working, wherein we need to skip these errors manually.
I I tried to Google it to find answers and also tried couple of JavaScript solutions such as the – SFW Batch Processor, SFWCS4-5, Picture Processor etc., but unfortunately all of them didn’t work for me. Either it gave up or stopped working or even threw errors for PhotoshopCS6 and CS2.
Thanks to Russell Brown for providing new CS6 Extension script to resolve the ‘save for web’ batch processing issue like maintaining the images nesting folder structure.
Not sure if it does exactly what I need, but checking....
Best,
Scott

How to batch resize images in Photoshop? [was:request information and courtesy]

Good evening, my name is gianluca. Let me ask you this information and courtesy : you could write me step by step procedures (or email me the link to the instructions in Italian or alternatively in English) to be followed in Photoshop to resize in one fell swoop with the same height and width in cm all jpg file (containing passport photos) present within the same folder, thus avoiding open every single jpg file and resize it?
I hope for your help
Best Regards

A process can be automated in Photoshop in different ways using one of Photoshop batching feature ther are more then one and it can be done by other image processing programs. However in all cases your image files will need to to opened decoded into an image processed to produce the images files you want and output files saved.
It not possible to give you a step by step for you left out much needed infomation. Like will all files being process have the same aspect ratio and if its the same aspect ratio as your desired passport images. Passport images should not be distorted. If Aspect ratios differ will a centered crop be OK. etc

Batch processing images with different dimensions

Hi all!
I've been trying to do this for a while and I'm stumped, so I'd like to know if it's even possible. I'm trying to fathom out how to create an action which…
Takes a jpg
draws a shape
masks the image
adds another shape
So I can batch process a ton of images.
I managed to do something like what I'm after but the thing I'm having trouble with is that the original images will have different dimensions.
I have attached (via link) an example image which would be the original (start.jpg), one which would be the desired end result (done.jpg) and the .psd
IF there needs to be a step in the middle of the action where I need to intervene and resize the flat image slightly to fit the canvas it'll still save a load of time.
I know that opening and saving will be taken care of using the batch feature and the result only needs to be a jpg.
Any input will be welcomed!
Here are the working files - http://mikeebee.com/dl/action-test.zip
Many thanks

That's an interesting action, but I thought the expected output was different than what this action produces. First, I didn't think image cropping would have been ok (maybe the OP expects this or is ok with cropping). Secondly, I kept getting caught up in how the right edge was going to actually be skewed (as decreasing in size perspectively off into the distance). This action appears to just visually trick the eye (again which may be what the OP wanted or is ok with). Like I said, just that aspect alone is where I kept getting stuck in how this would be possible without some manual manipulation.
If you take this image http://www.shan-dysigns.com/userForums/photoshop/stripes.jpg and perform this action, you will see how the right side doesn't actually get skewed (as I thought was part of the visual effect wanted). Still, this action is quite nice.

Batch resizing images, etc. not as an export

What I'd like to do is take all the images in a catalog, resize them into tiny thumbnails, place those thumbnails in some directory, and then FTP them to a web server. Some of this is covered under the SDK's "export" functionality, but what I'm proposing isn't something I want to handle as an export (I don't want to do it from Lightroom's export menu). I've looked into addDevelopPresetForPlugin and strangely I'm not seeing a provision in there for resizing an image, so clearly that system wasn't intended for resizing. How might I proceed, what pitfalls do I face, and am I even asking the right questions?

Indeed, this function is not reliable if user is in develop module. If I remember correctly, it just won't work on a photo selected for develop. I think I discovered later that it will work on other photos in filmstrip, if not most-selected (in develop module I mean). And of course one has to wait for a fresh preview, so could take as long as an export. I wish Adobe would have made more than a half-baked implementation for this function. There are some other issues too with this function - it hangs forever if Lr needs to get in there and create the same preview before function is finished, or something like that.
Option #3: use reverse-engineered access to preview subsystem - it works regardless of module, and is easy to get immediate preview - hard to assure a fresh one. Biggest problem is handling orientation and icc-profile and metadata if desired. See PreviewExporter for example:

Batch processing images with histogram info

I am using photoshop 7; I would like to know if I can batch process a group
of images and generate the Histogram info of the images in a different directory then the images. I have tried to make a action to do this
procedure but with little success. When I run the automate script all that I get is the histogram info of the first image. Is there a process for doing this or am I trying achieve something that can not be done. Any advise would be appreciated.
thank you, Mark

Batch resize images

Hi. Is it possible to resize more pictures using same settings? I have 1000 pictures and I wish to resize all to 800X800 px. Must I use a batch?

Welcome to the forum.
For such Scaling, if Noel's Script does not do it for you (I think that it will), you can also just record an Action with the Scaling, then Automate>Batch, pick the Source Folder and the Destination Folder and the Action (if you just recorded it, it will be listed by default), and hit OK.
Good luck,
Hunt

Handle image documents in Sharepoint Online as images with preview of the image

Hi
When I'm uploading an image(jpg,png,...) into an document library in Sharepoint Online(Office 365) and then search after this image, the search result shows only the file name and a link like .../Forms/DispForm.aspx?ID=1
I have no preview of the image(also not in hover-view).
When I go into the document library, I can see the image preview in the hover-view.
What can I do to show the image preview also in search result?
The template on this item is the default-item and not image-template. Postings like http://stevemannspath.blogspot.ch/2013/02/sharepoint-2013-image-preview-in-search.html couln't help, perhaps I'm using SPO?
Image Library is not a solution, Users have to use word, excel and images in the same directory/library.
best regards
Christoph

Hi Christoph,
From the article you mentioned, it needs add JPG file type to Search Service Application, which was not supported for SharePoint online.
I tried to add Picture content type to normal document library and tested the issue, it still displayed as item in Search results.
However, if I created a Picture Library and add Document content type to it, both image and document can be previewed in search result.

How does one pan an image with Preview??

There doesn't seem to be a hand tool in order to pan a zoomed image. Help would be appreciated.

On my magic mouse I can just swipe (up, down, left or right) with my finger. The arrow keys seem to work for me too.
What kind of pointing device do you have (trackpad, magic mouse, apple mouse, etc.)?
Edit: If you have a mouse with a standard scroll wheel try holding the shift key to scroll horizontally.

Batch placing images with filename as an editable caption?

Howdy! Does anyone know if there is an easy way to place about 300 screenshots into ID CC on a multi-page document (obviously) AND capture each filename associated with the image as a text frame above it (or close to it)? I named my files as reminders for the copy I need to write to describe the screenshot and - boy - would this help a lot to avoid back and forth to refer to file names. I need to edit the copy associated with each image, which is why I need the text (filename) in a text frame. The file names are long. I know - not an ideal way to name files, but I had to do screenshots on the fly on someone else's computer and it's what popped into my head at the time. Thank you kindly!

You're in luck. You can use the Object > Captions > Caption Setup to pick Name as the metadata. Then when you place the file turn on Import Options and check Create Static Captions.
You also can create dynamic captions which pull other metadata from the images but it doesn't sound like that's what you need.
Also you can read more about Captions in InDesign Help.
