Resize images through Batch Process in Photoshop

---

I guess at times everyone needs to resize, recolor, crop, adjust contrast or brightness of the images or pics you have. Its a feasible option that you open Photoshop/Picasa/or any other tool and edit images if the number of images are limited, how about if you want to edit thousands/hundreds of images at a time.

I used to face this problem many time and today i founded the best solution for it, and it is “Batch Processing” in Photoshop. Why i m saying its the best is because there are other tools also which allow you to batch process but the things you can do in photoshop cannot be done in any of them.

By this you can edit, resize, recolor, crop, give effects, adjust contrast or brightness, save them for web and many more things can be done to multiple images at a time.

Lets have a look how to do that -

1. Open a image in photoshop

2. Go to ” Window > Actions ” and you will see a window like shown below

3. Click on “Create new Action”.

4. A window like shown below will appear, fill the details. You can also assign a shortcut key as “Function Key” to this process. Click Record.

5. Now whatever action/steps you do will be recorded by this new Action you created, here you can resize, recolor, crop, give effects, adjust contrast or brightness, save them for web or whatever you want. When you are done with editing click “Stop Recording” as shown in the image below.

6. Now Go to ” File > Automate > Batch ” and you will see a window like below, choose the source folder where your thousands or hundreds of photos are saved. And also choose the destination folder for output.

Note : check “Suppress Color Profile Warning” to avoid color warning..
