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

    Deborah

    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!
