Today we will be going over how you can batch edit files in photoshop. I recently had a problem where I saved a large number of images of custom t-shirts as JPG file types instead of PNG File type. Now it took a good amount of time for me to go through and save all those files initially. Then I remembered a method I used in adobe illustrator when I had to resize thousands of images into a box the size of 100x100. If I did not use a script or action it would have taken me weeks to get that done. So when this same type of problem popped up I knew it wouldn't be that big of a deal. I first started by making another new folder. I made sure I named it with PNG at the end so I would know which folder needs to be my outsource. I then made an action. You will be able to see how I made the action in the video below. It may be complicated reading how to do it so we made a video tutorial instead. 

 

Let's Start by creating an action in Photoshop

 

  • While in Photoshop go to Window and select action
  • Create a new Set and name it
  • Create a new action and name it
  • Click record
  • Perform the process you want it to do to all the files. (Remember it is recording everytime you push the mouse button)
  • Once you are done hit the stop button

 

Now let's Automate a Batch edit in Photoshop

 

  • Go to File and select automate and batch
  • Choose the folder step that you just made
  • Then choose the action that you just made
  • Choose your source folder
  • Choose your destination folder
  • Click ok 
  • Congratulations you just automated a batch edit in photoshop
