I an a recent CS convert and an trying to replicate routine tasks I did on my old platform. I have found several, some were even improvements, but I’m stuck on this one.

Situation: Opened a folder-load in browser, had to rotate many of them, wanted to save them, as rotated. Is there a way to do this without saving each individually? My previous program allowed me to have as many files open as I could fit, modify them, and one-click-save the whole group.

I ran into this rotation problem because PS seems to auto-rotate the image if you take a portrait crop tool orientation and rotate it 90 degrees and vice-versa.

Thanks in advance
Jim

Jim,

Why not use an Action in Batch mode? You can flag the required images in the browser and just run the batch on the flagged images.

You may also find Russell Brown’s Image Processor Script very useful for this sort of thing. See:

Len, thanks for getting back.

I like the Russell Brown code, I’ll have to try that out. I did try the Action in Batch by just creating an Action to perform a save but received a "Save command not available" error (or something like it). I am still working out the nuances of Actions so I may have screwed it up, but it seemed pretty simple.

You’re welcome, Jim. Hope you get your action sorted out

Len: One last question. Dr. Brown is packaged as a Mac, do you know if there is a PC version floating around?

I got it. The d/l from the Russell Brown site is in a Mac compression .hqx. From Studio Exchange the d/l will extract ok.
