Batch save as jpeg

I have my work done and need to save images to the desktop as jpegs (currently raw files). Do I simply export the images or is there some sort of batch process that would be better.

Just select all the images you need to export, hit export, and set what file size and destination from export dialog box. I might recommend putting them in a folder on your desktop. A little less messy.

  • Batch Process Export As and Save As JPEG Question?

    What is the method for creating scaled JPEGs from PNG files with batch processing (File | Batch Process...)?
    Application environment: Fireworks CS4.
    Using History panel, I manually captured instructions
    Modify | Transform | Numeric Transform (13%)
    Modify | Canvas | Fit Canvas
    File | Save As (JPEG)
    History panel's saved JavaScript file script:
    fw.getDocumentDOM().scaleSelection(0.11999999731779099, 0.11999999731779099, "autoTrimImages transformAttributes");
    fw.getDocumentDOM().setDocumentCanvasSizeToDocumentExtents(true);
    fw.saveDocumentAs(null, true);
    Running this sequence as a batch job requires manually selecting JPEG and "okaying"
    CS4 documentation for saveDocumentAs is defined with different argument list: fw.saveDocumentAs(document) .  CS4 documentation also has: fw.exportDocumentAs(document, fileURL, exportOptions) to export JPEG (80% quality).  CS4 feature File | Image Preview... | Export does not create a history record for guidance.  I cannot find an example of either instruction save a file to a local folder in JPEG format.  My objective is to add an additional batch step Rename (prefix) for the JPEG output, and script this a a batch process.

    Joyce,
    Thank you.  Your suggestion helped clear my mental log jam.
    Fireworks batch scripting seems to work in reverse.
    Using "Batch Process..." scripting interface 'Export' (as JPEG) option first, 'Rename' (add Prefix) option second, and then follow these by using the history panel's 2 previously saved steps (Numeric Transform, Fit Canvas), batch process now works.  PNG file (list) is saved in targeted folder as a reduced scale JPEG with a prefixed file name.
    Batch Process allows the entire newly defined command sequence to be saved (script.js).  Placing this (renamed) file into Firework's batch look-up directory for scripts (C:\Documents and Settings\account_name\Application Data\Adobe\Fireworks CS4\Commands) does not work.  The file name does not display in "Batch Process" window "Batch options:" Commands drop-down list.
    Batch Process only works by recreating the above steps each use.
    The new (JavaScript) file is 26 KB.  Is script file size limited in Fireworks "Batch options:" feature?

  • Batch pdf to jpeg using action

    Using CS4 I am attempting to batch a group of pdf files to jpeg. My goal is to create an action/batch that will open a set of pdf files from a source folder, flatten each image, resize each image to 25%, save as jpeg with setting 6, and save each file to a destination folder under its original filename plus the jpg extension. I have been successful automating the process of opening each pdf, applying the flatten, and image resize but every jpg file is then saved over the same name identified in the action. I cannot get the batch Override Save As Command and File Naming scheme to name each processed jpg file with its original filename. I seem to have exhausted all available options. Help Is Greatly Appreciated.

    You are almost there. Go back to your single Action, that just did the Save in the wrong place. Note its name. Go to File>Automate>Batch and point to that Action. Set your Source Folder and Destination Folder, choose whether to bypass Open command, and hit OK. Done!
    Here's a look at the dialog screen:
    You do not need multiple Actions, just the one that "almost" worked.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - if this does not work, then there is a problem with the Action.

  • How to default save as JPEG?

    My current workflow has been placing rectangular photos onto white square backgrounds and then saving as JPEGs. Each time I have to save the resulting image, I have to manually opt for JPEGs. Is there any way of making this a default? Thanks if anyone knows.
    Richard

    When you have several layers, a jpeg format can't save your work, you have to create another file in psd or tiff format to keep the original unchanged and a new file with layers as a copy.
    The normal use of the 'save' command is to overwrite the original image. What you really want is not a single step, it's to:
    - flatten the layers
    - save (overwrite) the original image file.
    Allowing a default to automatically do that when you are editing a layered file would be a disaster in most cases. So you have two ways to tell the software to do that:
    - specify the jpeg format as output and if you want to overwrite the original or create a copy or version set
    - do a 'flatten image' before trying to do a 'save' or 'save as'.
    (If you use 'save for web', you are implicitly telling you want to flatten and save as jpeg).

  • My images won't save as jpeg unless I go to Save As... what is happening to my images?

    My images look great when edited in photoshop and when I got to close and save it won't give me the option to save as a jpeg so I have to go to File Save As and then save to jpeg. But when I go to order them in Roes they look drab and awful but the thumbnail looks great. Am I saving it wrong somehow?

    Go to Image --> Mode and set image to 8 or 16 bit. If the image has 32 bit, it won't export through the save for web dialog.
    Let me know if this fixes the issue.

  • I edit my photos in Photoshop, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto.  But if I add text to an image in Photoshop can't save as jpeg but as psd. Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?

    I edit my RAW photos in Photoschop CS3, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto 11.  If I add text in Photoshop I can't save as jpeg but as psd.  Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?

    Yes you can. But you need to flatten it as jpeg doesn't support layers.
    While the final JPEG can't have layers, it is not necessary to flatten the original Photoshop file to create a JPEG. There are two ways to make a JPEG while not losing the flexibility of preserving layers, and they both flatten on the fly while saving.
    I just tried this in Photoshop CS3 myself. When I add a text layer, and choose Save, the Save As dialog box comes up and defaults to PSD as was described. But... that is just the default! Go ahead and choose JPEG from the Format pop-up menu down below the file list. JPEG is in there. So what happens to the layers? Notice when you choose JPEG, the Layers box grays out and the "As A Copy" box grays out and is checked (i.e. you cannot uncheck it). What is going on here is Photoshop will gladly make a JPEG of your layered file, but it will force the JPEG to be a copy, so as to not overwrite the original layered file. This is good, because your Photoshop file with its editable text layer is preserved, and you get a JPEG copy to put in iPhoto.
    The second way is, instead of doing Save or Save As, choose File/Save for Web and Devices. This will also give you a JPEG choice, and also create an exported copy. Because this way makes files for the Web, they will be smaller than JPEGs from Save As because they will lack built-in previews (which you don't really need these days) and other extra metadata that take up space.
    Either way you get a JPEG you can toss back into iPhoto.

    The Export menu in Photoshop CS3 does not have any direct choices for JPEG.

  • One-click 'Save as jpeg' shortcut script please! - saved in the same folder

    Hi, I've been re-directed here because I was told a script could solve my problems - but I have no scripting experience/knowledge/ability! Below is my original problem and post. I got as close as 2 button presses, but I'm after that sweet, sweet single-button, double-my-productivity shortcut! Thanks!
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1106992
    I use 'Save as .jpeg' ALL the time (Photoshop CS6, Mac ML), and it really feels like I should just be able to press one button (a shortcut) and the name/quality dialogs don't appear and it just saves a .jpeg into the folder that my original .PSD/file is in.
    So basically:
    - Press one button to save my open .PSD/file as a .jpeg
    - Automatically save it in the same folder as my .PSD
    - Save it as '10' quality in the jpeg settings
    - No dialog boxes, as soon as I press the button, it saves it - if there's already a .jpeg of the same name, it creates a '-1','-2' etc.
    I've tried using 'Actions', but it seems to save it wherever my original Action folder was - it doesn't change to whatever the current folder the .PSD is in...
    Thanks!

    File -> Scripts -> Script Events Manager
    Click Enable Events at the top
    Select Save Document from Photoshop Event  drop down
    Select Save Extra JPEG from Script drop down
    Click Add
    Click Done
    EVERY document you save, except JPEG files, will save a jpg file. Saving will be slower.
    You will need to modify line 62 of the Save Extra JPEG.jsx file located here: <YOUR_PHOTOSHOP_INSTALL_LOCATION>\Presets\Scripts\Event Scripts Only
    In order to boost your quality to '10'. Here is the line in question
    jpegOptions.quality = 2; // really low
    Change it to
    jpegOptions.quality = 10; // really high
    You will need to modify the script to get this problem solved as well: it saves it - if there's already a .jpeg of the same name, it creates a '-1','-2' etc.
    You can steal code out of Image Processor that finds a file name that is unique for the folder so you don't get overwrites.
    Are you sure you want that? If you do lots of saves you are going to fill up your disk fast.

  • Can you batch save as pdf's to excel files

    I was wondering if there was a way of batch saving a number of PDF documents to EXCEL files so then we can collate and graph the data from there.

    Hi Chris ,

  • XY Graph Won't save to JPEG when Black and White...and run from TestStand.

    I am creating an XY graph and manipulating the colors of the plots, background, etc.  I am saving this graph to JPEG using the Write JPEG File vi and after it is saved I import it inot a test report.  This works fine in color, but when I create a B&W plot, it won't save to JPEG.  Let me clarify:  It won't save to JPEG when I run the VI from TestStand.  It does save to JPEG when I run the VI as a stand alone application in LabVIEW. 
    Problem:
    Run VI from LabVIEW ~ Saves the JPEG in both Color and B&W.
    Run VI from TestStand ~ Saves the JPEG in Color, but does not save the JPEG in B&W.    
    Here is how I am making all the plots and background B&W in my code:
    Change all Active Plots to Black using property node.
    Change all Active Cursors to Black using property node.
    Change the Plot BG colors (major/minor grids, etc) to lighter colors using property node. 
    Does anybody have any suggestions? 
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    A few questions: What version of LV are you using? How are you getting the control image that you are sending to the JPG? Third what exactly happens when you try to save the B/W image under TestStand? Error?

  • Batching SaveAs in CS6 will not save PDF Compatible

    So I'm using a script that I wrote to bring in files that were converted from CorelDraw to EPS (this is the best conversion process to preserve text and drawing assets).  Basically the script takes the art in the EPS, groups it, places a rectangular border around the art and centers them.  We do this so that they come into InDesign correctly sized.  The problem is, it used to be 100% automated, just about, however now the saveas action command will not remember that "Save as PDF Compatible" needs to be set to true.  When I do a saveas command, it's check by default, but when the saveas command is batched, it does NOT do it that way.  When I try to bring batched AIs into InDesign, it's text that says it was not saved as PDF Compatible.  Am I going to have to script a save function to get control of the saveas settings?  I don't understand why PDF compatible is checked by default, yet batching saveas saves as if it unchecked it.  Any help would be much appreciated as this is throwing a wrench in my automation.

    I know that I can handle the saveas via script and avoid this issue, however I'd prefer let the action portion handle the saveas.  You understand what I'm saying though, right?  The record action button apparently isn't logging the checked box for PDF compatible, though when you click saveas so the record records your action, the dialog shows it as pdf compatible.  In the batch function, if I say override save functions, it works perfectly, but I have to click yes or no on a dialog every single drawing it goes through.  So are you saying I just need to script it because the actions setup is bugged?

  • How can I batch save my adjusted raw images as jpgs in Lightroom 4

    I have a job that I imported to Lightroom 4.  I made adjustments to 40 of the images and would like to batch save these as jpgs with the LR adjustments saved.  So far I know I can save the raws as jpgs but the adjustments are not being saved.  I would hate to have to open each image individually to save these changes.  Thanks for any help!

    Highlight the 40 images, and then open the export dialogue and set your options. There is no "save" option or "save as" option in Lightroom. Since Lightroom doesn't alter your original images, it is necessary to export derivative copies for whatever use you need.

  • How do I edit RAW photos and save as jpeg?

    HI! I have some RAW photos that I want to edit and save as jpeg. Will the edits compromise the file and how do I then save these edited files as jpegs and will that compromise the files? THANKS!

    What do you mean by “Will my files be compromised“?
    When you edit a photo with iPhoto you’re Original file is preserved exactly as it is, there are no changes made to it whatever.
    will I be able to make a readable disc?
    Why not? But what do you mean by “readable” Readable by who?
