I have scanned some old film photographs three at a time on my scanner, now rather than taking each file and cropping three times in order to get seperate pictures is there a way to automate this as the cropping will be identical for each file. I have 20 files with three pictures on each so looking to end up with 60 seperate pictures.
I am currently doing this….
Taking 2 copies + original
open file
crop and then save
open copy and repeat
open other copy and repeat

thanks

Yes. Record an action that selects each part and using layers – cut to a new layer, then the last step is to save each layer as a separate image (under scripts).
