Super Strat for Mass Resize
- Put all of the images you want to process into one directory then open any one of them in Photoshop. Then go to Window --> Actions to show the palette.
- At the bottom of the palette, click the small page-turning icon to create a new action. Give it a name and click [OK].
- Then at the bottom of this palette, click the small circle button ("Begin Recording"). This initiates a VCR-like functionality that will record all of your actions and store them so that they can be repeated on other images.
- Go to Image --> Image Size. Here, specify the new image size; you can change the select pop-ups for either the "Pixel Dimension" group or "Document Size" to change the units. Either one of those will resize it correctly. Click [OK] when you're done.
- Go to File --> Save As and save it to whatever location (you can specify a new folder) with the right format, compression, and output settings.
- Now go back to the Actions palette and click the small square button ("Stop Recording") to stop and save the recording.
- Close the currently opened image.
- You are now ready to automate the process, go to File --> Automate --> Batch. Set these settings:
- Action: the action you just created
- Source: Folder
- Choose...: select the folder where your images to process are
- Destination: Save and Close
- Override Action "Save As" Command: No
- Click [OK] and let Photoshop process all your photos. When it finishes, all your images should be resized in a new folder (if you set that).
