Batch processing
The batch processing feature is especially useful if you want to repeat the same
operation again and again... Batch processing allows you to:
• Use Macros: uses preset or custom macros as part of the batch process.
• Change File Type: to bulk convert images to a new file type (with
different file properties if needed).
• Resize Images: to resample images to various widths, heights, or
resolutions (using different resampling methods).
• Change File Name: to alter the file names of images in bulk.
For any of the above, you specify separate source and destination folders as your
input and output. There are several advantages to this, mainly that your original
photos are not overwritten.
The Batch dialog, available
from the File menu, is used to
perform all of the above
operations.
As a pre-requisite, you have to
define a specific Source Folder
for any batch processing
operation, whether using a
macro or not, or if converting
photos to a different file format.
A Destination folder can
optionally be defined, creating
new files in that new location.
If you don’t select a
destination folder,
the source files will
be processed and
your original files will
be overwritten—
exercise caution with
these settings!
