Scale batch of images - can I do it ?

Hello gentlemen,
I have about 40 images that I've imported into the timeline in PP.
Is there a way to scale all the images down at one time ?
I'd like to scale all of them down about 60% or so.
Thanks for a any info, and your time,
Dave.

Hi Harm,
Ok I did what you suggested, and it works ( somewhat ), something is strange though.
I scaled the nested sequence down to 60% but instead of the images actually scaling "un-zooming" so I can see them, the whole series of images is scaling, but as in just getting smaller within the rendering window area. So I don't actually see the whole image like I wish to see, - scaling the sequence just makes the series of images smaller on the screen . ( example - in one image, I see the person's arm, where the full image shows the whole person ).
If I go and scale the image alone, the image becomes "unzoomed" and I can see the whole person, but in the sequence, the whole "zoomed" image just becomes smaller in the rendering window area.
Dave.
Off to try CWrig's suggesion now,, but why is your suggestion not working for me ?

Can I batch convert images in a folder hierarchy?

I can't seem to be able to create an Action or Droplet in Photoshop CS5 that will batch convert images in situ in a hierarchy of folders. In the Photoshop Actions you have to specify an explicit destination, and there's no "save back to the same place" option that I can find.
I used to be able to do this with ImageReady CS2, but Tiger is going to kill that. Help!

If you want to give it a try, paste the following text into a new file in ExtendScript Toolkit (part of Photoshop’s installation, Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities/ExtendScript Toolkit CS4 or /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities-CS5/ExtendScript Toolkit CS5) and save it as a jsx-file into Photoshop’s Presets/Scripts-folder.
After restarting Photoshop the Script should be available under File > Scripts and can be assigned a Keyboard Shortcut directly, recorded into an Action, (in CS4 and CS5) be used in a Configurator-Panel or started from ExtendScript Toolkit directly.

if (app.documents.length > 0) {
// get document-path and -name; thanks to xbytor;
     var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
     var myDocName = myDocument.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
     var myPath = myDocument.path;
// save for web options;
     var webOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
     webOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.COMPUSERVEGIF;
     webOptions.optimized = true;
     webOptions.colorReduction = ColorReductionType.ADAPTIVE;
     webOptions.dither = Dither.NONE;
     webOptions.quality = 100;
     webOptions.includeProfile = true;
     webOptions.matteColor = new RGBColor();
     webOptions.matteColor.red = 255;
     webOptions.matteColor.green = 255;
     webOptions.matteColor.blue = 255;
// export;
     myDocument.exportDocument(new File(myPath+"/"+myDocName+".gif"), ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, webOptions);
Edit:
The Script could be recorded into an Action.
It would also be possible to create a Script that offers a dialog for File- or Folder-selection and subsequently operates on all selected/contained files of specified formats, but that would be a different approach from the Droplet.

In Bridge CS6, the "Tools" tab is missing the "Photoshop" option to batch process image

Hello!
Does anyone know why in Bridge cs6 under the "Tools" tab, my "Photoshop" option is missing? That is how I have always batch processed images. In Bridge, I choose the images to process, go to the "Tools" tab, down to the "Photoshop" option then to "Image Processor" and process. Now when I go into my "Tools" tab it only has the options: Batch Rename, 4 kinds of Metadata related options and Cache. Can someone tell me why this has happened and how to fix it? Thank you!!!
Eric

Hello Omke,
This problem lasted for two days. I tried many suggestions but nothing worked immediately. Suddenly I turned my computer on last night and it was fixed...inexplicably. Not sure what worked but something did. I appreciate you taking the time to offer advice.

Eric

Shortcuts for Batch and Image Processor in Bridge CS6

I use Batch and Image Processor all the time, and I'd like to use a shortcut.
Can you tell me if there is a shortcut or how I can program one?
I set up shortcuts for those two commands in Photoshop, but they don't work in Bridge.
I remember from the time I started with Photoshop and had Deke McClelland's book with his set of shortcuts. There was a shortcut that worked with image processor, but it was just a set you did install and no explanation. When I moved to a different computer and a newer version of Photoshop, these keys got lost.
Is there any way to automate Batch and Image Processor?

There is no way to economically batch process in Bridge without having to go thorough sub-menus.
I'm sorry you can't get it to work, but on my system it works flawless.
Testing a bit more it seems you don't need to use a unique shortcut at all. I also tried to use the shortcut for Batch I created in PS itself to get the Batch window to front for running actions on open files. For me that is [control + Cmd + B] but feel free to find an other one.
When I discovered you don't need the unique shortcut at all I used the same shortcut for Bridge CC. . Also created [Control + Cmd + i] for the Image processor.
Both started without problems.
To extend I also created both same shortcuts for Bridge CS6. This also was working correctly, off course, having only PS CC open using the shortcut in Bridge CS6 it auto started PS CS6.
So can you specify a bit more about what OS you are using on what computer (I have OSX 10.8.4 on a MacPro 2012)
Some screenshots to show the shortcuts in System prefs and how the show in the Bridge Submenus:

How to set the color scale so that we can get same color for same intensity of color in various runs

Hi
I am trying to get the color pattern of mashed potato trays and diferent trays has different color intensity but if IF i am chsooing rainbow plateu it's giveing red color for dark region of each tray but two tray has different intensity of dark color. Can you suugest me how should I set the color scale so that I can distinguish which tray has higher degree of intensity of darkness.
I will be obliged to get the suggestions

Hello,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments. I just have a few questions for you to help us clarify your application:
What API, such as LabVIEW or C, are you programming your application in?
Are you using Vision, and if so what specific functions are you currently using?
Is the lighting consistent and just the color of the trays changing?
How are you displaying the image in your program? Are you using an Image Display control?/li>
Depending on what functions you have available, then we may be able to work on finding a way to distinguish between the different intensities. If you could provide a little information to your application based on these questions then will be able to better understand and help you with your app
lication.

Batch load images (tiff) into table with a BLOB column

Hi,
Does anyone know any third-party tool/software to bulk/batch load images into Oracle table? There is an ETL software to regularly pull the images (tiff) from a ftp server to a directory in the database server. There is no way I can hardcode the image filenames into the control file and use SQL*Loader to load the files. Is there any tool/software that can just grab whatever files in the directory and load them into Oracle. Then, I can write a program to extract the filename from the file already loaded into the table and update the filename column.
Thanks.
Andy

sound like simple scripting to me...

[CS2][JS] How to scale all inline images to 70%

To all the script gurus out there. can you help me make a script that scale all inline images to 70%? 'coz we got this client and they supply us with lots of eps files then the instruction would be to reduce the size of all images without touching the original ones. it takes time to process all of them in indesign manually.

Batch Replace Images

I have been working on a project that requires a slide presentation consisting solely of a number of .psd images. While waiting for one final asset from the client, I decided to go ahead and throw together the presentation in Keynote, thinking I could just update the .psd images easily after I finished editing them with the final asset. However, to my dismay, I have learned that Keynote isn't intelligent in this regard to realize when I have updated assets used by it, nor does it give me any tools to accomplish the task of updating an image short of recreating the entire project.
Is there a way to batch replace images used by Keynote? This seems like an incredibly simple workflow task, but it seems there is no simple way to do it. I found one other thread that suggested looking at the package contents of my .key document, but that doesn't seem to work anymore - the option to view package contents doesn't show up on my context menu.
I'm going to go ahead and spend the hour recreating this document, but it would be nice to know the answer to this question for future reference! This is something I know even PowerPoint can accomplish... :/

Welcome to the forums!
Keynote files are still packages, but the default behaviour for Keynote is to compress them as a ZIP file. If you change the file extension from .key to .zip, then uncompress the result, you will get a folder with the package contents, including the images. To make this back into a standard package, just add the .key extension to the folder (to get the compressed package, first compress the folder, then add the .key).
You can control whether a package is stored as a single compressed file or not in the Keynote Preferences.

How do I change the resolution of a batch of images?

I have a folder of images that I want to print.
Resolution is set at 70ppi and I want to change them all to 300ppi.

PPI is pixels per inch of the image. It is difficult to increase resolution as you are trying to add data that is not there.
But for printing purposes what you want is dpi or dots per inch.
The image processor either accessed from Bridge (tools/photoshp) or PS is a good way to change a batch of images.

HT1479 I would like to know how to burn a dvd in such a way that each image can be skipped over by pressing the skip button.

I would like to know how to burn a dvd in such a way that each image can be skipped over by pressing the skip button? If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated!

Here's how top get a slideshow that will let the viewer manually control the forward and backward movement of the slides with the forward and back buttons on the DVD remote.
1 - put the images you want to use in an iPhoto album.
2 - launch iDVD, select a theme and add a slideshow using the "+" button at the bottom:
3 - click on the Media button at the lower right hand corner of the window and then click on the Photos button.
4 - locate the iPhoto album containing your photos and drag it into the left hand pane:
5 - select Side Duration to Manual.
In order to get the maximum manual control of the slides you cannot have add any music to the slideshow. If you do add music the slideshow will continue you advance unless you pause the slideshow and/or use the advance/back buttons and then pause.
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Bridge CS6: How do you write a script to assign a shortcut to "Batch" and "Image Processor"?

Many times a day I need to access "Batch" and "Image Processor" in Bridge.
There is no shortcut, so I have to go the Tools-Photoshop-Batch and Tools-Photoshop-Image Processor menu - the items I need are locked into a second level menu.
Which is impractical.
I remember, when I started out with Photoshop many years ago, I downloaded "Deke Keyes" from Deke McClelland, which included keystrokes for "Batch" and "Image Processor".
From the Bridge forum I learned that you cannot assign shortcuts in Bridge CS6.
So the general opinon was that a script was used to assign the shortcuts.
Could you please tell me how to do that?
Thanks!
PS: I tried to assign shortcuts via the Mac OS X Mountain Lion keyboard preferences (applications), but it did not work.

Hi,
in the exit:Event of the 1st date field add this FormCalc script:
