Process multiple files and stack with originals

I have had an ongoing frustration with PSE.  After ranking my photos I use the raw import to post process multiple photos.  Almost all of my post processing occurs during the raw import of my NEF originals.  When done I save the files as stacked JPGs.  Unfortunately I have not found a way to process multiple files and have them stay stacked with the originals.  This results in me doing a "Save As" for every single photo in the photo bin.  VERY TIME CONSUMING!!
Has anyone determined a way to process multiple files into JPGs and have them stacked with originals?  I am sure this is possible and it is really driving me crazy!!  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
Ken
P.S.  I did search the forums for key words around this issue and wasn't able to turn up any hits.  My apologies up front if this has been addressed before.

Check http://photoshopelementsbyadobe.blogspot.com/2010/02/batch-processing-in-adobe-photoshop.h tml if it helps...
But you will have to stack them manually and Auto-suggest stack can also be helpful !
Give it a try and feel free to ask specific questions...

  • How do I process multiple files and turn them from raw to jpeg

    How do I process multiple files and turn them from raw to jpeg. Ive tried and it seems to go through the files but doesnt seem to process them or store them in the selected folder

    Yes that was the first thing I did. Then I used the process multiple files and selected a new folder to put them in and selected use open files and selected to turn them into jpeg. The images flash on the screen like they are being processed, but the folder never appears in library. Is it possible because there are a couple 16 bit files open that this corrupts the task. Do I need to create the folder first. Will elements not create the folder on its own.
    Thanks Vince

  • Sub folders and Process multiple files in Photoshop Elements 10

    I am looking to apply the same adjustments to numerous images in numerous sub-folders and overwrite the original images.
    Using the Process Multiple Files options,  I added the main folder (which contains no images) to the Source field, selected the Include All Subfolders tick-box, also selected the Same as Source tick-box (which warns you original files will be overwritten) and then completed the image adjustments I required.   However, after running the process all the adjusted images were saved in the main folder and did not overwrite the originals contained in each sub-folder.  Does anyone know if there is a setting I am missing to replace the images in the sub-folders or is this by design ?

    bossti a écrit:
    hi, so is it possible to keep the same subfolder structure as output location? regards! bostjan
    No...
    I think you are going to run great risks in trying to use batch process like 'process multiple files' or 'export' while relying on subfolder structures.
    - the organizer is much more powerful with its database and keywords management than a folder structure organization,
    - Batch processes are limited in Elements
    - 'Good practice' calls for keeping originals intact.
    What are you wanting to do exactly ? We might be able to suggest alternative workflows.

  • PhotoShop Elements 10...I need help with font size for watermark in Processing Multiple Files.....

    I have PhotoShop Elements 10, and I am trying to watermark some of my photos, I have successfully added them one at a time with a font large enough to be seen. Now I am trying to add it using the "process multiple files" , I can do that but the font even at 72 the largest setting is so small on the photo you can barely read it! Can anyone help me the size larger on my photos?

    Thank you, Michael. I just watched the Russell Brown video again for CS6 and looked real closely at his settings in ACR and he was using 240ppi. I changed my file in image size to 240 ppi and then ran the script and the layer didn't change size this time when I ran the script.
    It is kind of annoying to have to change the image size everytime I want to run this script and then change it back again as most of my files are 300 ppi. I used to run his script for edit in ARC in CS5 and recall that if I just remembered to change the settings in ARC to 300 ppi while the script was playing and before pressing 'open' that the image wouldn't change size during the raw processing, but this doesn't seem to be working in CS6. Do you know of a way to use this script and not have to change the ppi for the image to 240?
    Thanks again.

  • HOW TO - Create new from clipboard and process multiple files - please help

    Need help - have new version of photoshop on trial only ATM...
    Want to know - HOW TO:
    1. Create new from clipbaord
    2. Process multiple files
    Please help.

    For clipboard copy, I start with File > New and the size will be set to what's in the clipboard. Then once the new file is opened, Edit > Paste will place the clipboard contents as a layer in the new document.
    You must remember to use the command Layer > Flatten Image of you want to save as jpeg or any other file format that doesn't support layers.
    For processing multiple files,
    File > Automate > Batch or
    File > Scripts > Image Processor...
    Check the User guide or google information for those commands if you have specific needs.

  • Process Multiple Files in PSE 7

    I'm running PSE7.
    I'd like to take a group of images (jpeg's) and do the following to them:
    Run QuickFix on them.
    Save them as a new file with the name based on the original name plus some extra information.
    Resize the jpeg's to a size suitable for the web. Or possibly a little larger.
    It would really be great if:
    I could use a 'tag' to select the images I want to process.
    The tags on the new images are the same as the originals.
    The new files are written into the same folder as the original. Even if multiple folders are needed due to
    the tags bringing in images from multiple folders.
    The new images would become part of a version set or stack along with the originals.
    Well, that's what's I'm interested in doing.
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciatted!

    The Process Multiple Files command applies settings to a folder of files. If you have a digital camera or a scanner with a document feeder, you can also import and process multiple images. (Your scanner or digital camera may need an acquire plug‑in module that supports actions.)
    When processing files, you can leave all the files open, close and save the changes to the original files, or save modified versions of the files to a new location (leaving the originals unchanged). If you are saving the processed files to a new location, you may want to create a new folder for the processed files before starting the batch.
    Note: The Process Multiple Files command does not work on multiple page files.
    Choose File > Process Multiple Files.
    Choose the files to process from the Process Files From pop‑up menu:
    Folder
    Processes files in a folder you specify. Click Browse to locate and select the folder.
    Import
    Processes images from a digital camera or scanner.
    Opened Files
    Processes all open files.
    Select Include All Subfolders if you want to process files in subdirectories of the specified folder.
    For Destination, click Browse and select a folder location for the processed files.
    If you chose Folder as the destination, specify a file-naming convention and select file compatibility options for the processed files:
    For Rename Files, select elements from the pop‑up menus or enter text into the fields to be combined into the default names for all files. The fields let you change the order and formatting of the components of the filename. You must include at least one field that is unique for every file (for example, filename, serial number, or serial letter) to prevent files from overwriting each other. Starting Serial Number specifies the starting number for any serial number fields. If you select Serial Letter from the pop-up menu, serial letter fields always start with the letter “A” for the first file.
    For Compatibility, choose Windows, Mac OS, and UNIX® to make filenames compatible with the Windows, Mac OS, and UNIX operating systems.
    Under Image Size, select Resize Images if you want each processed file resized to a uniform size. Then type in a width and height for the photos, and choose an option from the Resolution menu. Select Constrain Proportions to keep the width and height proportional.
    To apply an automatic adjustment to the images, select an option from the Quick Fix panel.
    To attach a label to the images, choose an option from the Labels menu, then customize the text, text position, font, size, opacity, and color. (To change the text color, click the color swatch and choose a new color from the Color Picker.)
    Select Log Errors That Result From Processing Files to record each error in a file without stopping the process. If errors are logged to a file, a message appears after processing. To review the error file, open with a text editor after the Batch command has run.
    Click OK to process and save the files.

  • Process Multiple Files in PSE7 - o/p files to Organizer?

    I'm using PSE7.
    When I run 'Process Multiple Files' from the File menu in Editor I
    can create a new set of jpegs. For example, I can run them through
    the Quick Fix processes. If I create new files as output rather than
    overwriting the originals, is there a way that I can get those new files
    back into Organizer automatically?
    And the follow up questions would be
    1) Do the original tags all get retained in the new files?
    2) Can the new files be part of a version set with the originals?
    Thanks for any thoughts!

    Thanks!
    From what I can tell Process Multiple Files allows input from three places:
    1. A folder. 2. Import (like a scanner?) 3. Open files.
    So it might be nice if it had a 4th option that would allow files to come out
    of Organizer via tags, albums, etc. And if that option was chosen then it
    would be nice to save the tags, and create version sets optionally.
    But my guess is that from a product design perspective the thinking is
    that most people would rather work in Organizer and then perform
    actions on a logical set of photos from there. Certainly, that would be my
    preference.
    What I'd like to do is do be in Organizer, select my images via tag(s),
    run QuickFix on them, (all of that I can do), then reduce the file size,
    and save the finished product as a version set. Then only thing I can't do
    in PSE7 is reduce the file size. Of if there is I don't know how to do
    it automatically.
    Well, thanks for the help!

  • Process multiple files

    Elements v 4.0 How do you input files in "process multiple files" function. I get "file empty" and "disc not available" messages when the reverse is the case.

    99jon
    I have added some comments because this feature is not behaving
    according to the book.
    I have tried using dummy files with simple titles but nothing works
    and I do not understand what is causing the problem. The Mac input
    does not seem to be acceptable. Pity, because I have a use for it in
    re-titling various photos.

  • Process Multiple Files - Convert PSD to JPG

    Having problems converting large (30MB) psd files to jpg (not jpeg2000). I tried using the Process Multiple Files feature and when I tried to convert a large number of psd files (20 or more) PSE3 stops at the first file with a second window, SAVE AS, asking for a different format and gives these choices: Photoshop, JPEG 2000, Photoshop PDF, Photoshop RAW, PNG, TIFF. All not what I want. Yet when I convert the same PSD files to tiff it goes without a hitch, ie no second Save As box and no stopping. What gives?
    Suggestions appreciated.

    First, I'm using an iMac G5 with Mac OS 10.4.7 and PSE3. Actually my question is really about a Batch Flip. I scanned a lot of slides (close to a 1000) at the 'best' quality I could which was 16 bit color (or as Canon calls it, 48 bit) and 2400 bit dpi. But there was a problem in that the slides being 'emulsion side down' during scanning produced a mirror image. These images have to be 'Horizontal Flipped' to get back to a correct image. To do the flip I either had to do it one at a time with PSE3 or try a batch process. Trouble is the programs I tried for the batch process will not work on 16 bit files as I deduced from your reply. So, my thought was to convert them to jpg first then batch flip, hence my question here. Also jpgs would be more manageable for viewing, slide shows, editing and other software while I could store the original *.psd files on DVDs. So now I am left with doing a Batch Flip one at a time then storing the originals on DVDs, and as I have a Windows box connected, copy then over and use something like IrFanview to convert the originals to jpgs for slide shows etc. Another issue: are jpgs the way to go or is there a better format? Tiff?
    Suggestions appreciated.

  • Can't process multiple files on one of three catalogs

    After getting straightened out about getting my catalogs in order, which I've done, I've run into another problem. I have three catalogs one for People, one for Things and one I call Workplace where I try out things that are new to me so I don't mess up my main catalogs.
    I've straightened out the files in my Things catalog. I have one catagory that contains images of autograph book pages from the late 1800s. Those scans were done in JPEG some time ago. I've tried using multiple processing to change these 55 images to psd in the original file to be consistent with the rest of the catalog. Each time the process fails.
    In order to see what the problem might be I have copied the catagory file into both of my other catalogs and have been able to process the catagory file back into itself as psd. I have also created another small file in the Things catalog and tried to convert it and had the same result. The warning info box that appears when copying back into the same file states that the original files will be overwritten. The psd files do not overwrite the jpg files. They are added to the original file. That may be the way it is intended to be. That's not a real problem.
    The real question is why can't I process multiple files in the original catalog. I have looked at the error file and, although I don't know much about most of it, I found the following in the first part of the file.
    crash exception="EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION"
    I run XP SP3 and PSE 8. I am a single user with administrator rights. I find no mention of a  permission filter in the PSE 8 program.
    I'm stuck until I solve this problem and I need help getting it done. Any suggestions or information will be greatly appreciated.

    One thing to try : instead of using 'process multiple files', can you use the 'export' feature in the Organizer to export the jpegs of that category in psd format into a new folder ?

  • Read multiple files and save all into one output file(AGAIN)

    Hi, guys
    I need your help for reading data from multiple files and save the results into one output file.

    Sorry about the long lines.
    As you can see, all input files saved in array called files, however when OpenFile1() function is called, it take input (fileName_in) as a single file not an array. I'm assuming this causes the exception.
    When there's muptiple inputs, program should take each file from getFileName() to outputToFile() sequentially.
    Does anybody have an idea to solve this?
    Thanks a lot!!

    you naming convention is confussing. you should follows Java naming convention..you have a getXXX but decalred the return type as "void"...get usully means to return something...
    your code is doing too much..and hard to follows..
    1. get the selected files
    for each selected file
    process the file and return the result
    write out the result.
    /** close the precious resource */
    public void closeResource(Reader in){
        if (in != null){
            try{ in.close(); }
            catch (Exception e){}
    /** get the total number of line in a file */
    public int getLineCount(File file) throws IOException{
        BufferedReader in = null;
        int lineCount = 0;
        try{
            in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
            while ((in.readLine() != null)
                lineCount++;
            return lineCount;
        finally{ closeResource (in);  }
    /** read the file */
    public void processFile(File inFile, File outFile) throws IOException{
        BufferedReader in = null;
        StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();
        try{
            in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inFile));
            String line = null;
            while ((in.readLine() != null){
                .. do something with the line
                result.append(....);
            writeToFile(outFile, result.toString());
        finally{ closeResource (in);  }
    public void writeToFile(File outFile, String result) throws IOException{
        PrintWriter out = null;
        try{
            out = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(outFile, true));  // true for appending to the end of the file
            out.println(result);
        finally{  if (out != null){ try{ out.close(); } catch (Exception e){} }  }
    }

  • Process Multiple Files in Bridge

    I am trying to process multiple files in Bridge CS3 using Photoshop Elements 9.  It does not give me an error, it just does nothing.  Can someone help me figure out how to fix this?  It used to do this now I am having problems.

    Can someone help me figure out how to fix this?  It used to do this now I am having problems.
    Without knowing your workflow or your OS to my knowledge Bridge CS3 is not designed for Photoshop Elements 9 but for Photoshop CS3. There used to be a Bridge CS4 version bundled with PSElements 8 for a Mac but thats all I know about it.
    However if you want to open files from Bridge in PS Elements you should either select the files you want and with right mouse click menu choose open with and from the submenu choose PSElements 9 or go to the Bridge preferences file type associations and change the file type you need in PSE to open in PSE9 by default.
    If this is not the answer you expected could you be more specific about OS (windows/Mac) and what you mean with process (raw settings, batch actions or just open in, etc.)

  • Jpgs are greyed out in process multiple files.

    I have a new iMac, with Elements 11, all jpgs are greyed out when I try to process multiple files.

    Are these photos in iphoto? You can't access the iphoto library directly. Writing into that library from outside iphoto is the fastest way to corrupt it and lose the photos. Export the photos from iphoto and work on the exports. If that's not it, where are these jpegs located?
