How to Batch Resize Photos in Photoshop
Resizing groups of photos is very easy if you are using Photoshop. I am using Photoshop CS3 on a Mac in this example. Though I am not sure if this works in Elements, I do know that it works in CS2 on both a PC & a Mac.
Here’s the concept: you have a folder full of JPG files and they are all very large. You want to resize all of the photos at once, or you want to create small copies of all of the photos at once, but save it to another location. No problem.
Just click the File menu, and hover over Scripts, then select Image Processor:

Hi
Thanks for this info about batch resizing photos – although I don’t seem to be doing it correctly as it hasn’t worked for me.
I was hoping you could help?
I’ve followed all the instructions prefectly and then clicked on ‘run’ but nothing seems to be happening and the folder I’ve created to send the smaller files to is empty.
Hope you can help…
With thanks

I don’t think I can diagnose what that problem would be. I would start by selecting your “desktop” as the location it saves the photos to, and start out with just one photo first. Make one modification at a time and see if it copies them to the desktop…
Oh, thank you so much for explaining this! I was banging my head against the wall manually resizing my photos. I have Photoshop, so now I’m all set!
thanks! worked perfectly! :0)
I have a batch of pictures which are all different sizes and now I want them all to fit for my website at 500X500 with maintaining the aspect ratio. I followed your insctructions but the pictures are now all resized with only the height 500
can someone help?
Thank you so much for this! I needed it badly and had no idea it was right under my nose
I owe this site and the contributor a million thanks. It really worked for me. So easy? Whaoooo! I have learnt something new. Thank you once again. Keep it up.

Very simple thank you!
Thank you for the helpful tutorial!
Thank you so much this worked perfectly. Simple and easy
Thanks a lot for sharing this useful method. I used it in CS 5.5 and the menu structure hasn’t changed yet.
I too have same problem
Any idea if this is possible in Photoshop CS? The image processor option doesn’t come up under the scripts tab
I have a batch of photos that need to be aligned, resized, cropped, etc. so they are the same size and perfectly aligned. What free software could I use to do this? Thanks.
