How to batch resize an image and create multiple sizes (with Photoshop)?


I want to batch resize an image in multiple sizes with Photoshop.


The sizes are most of the time the same so I would like to have profiles for a set of fixed sizes. Ideally I just need to open my source image and click on "Batch Profile #1" and then Photoshop is creating/saving X different sizes of that image as an output in a specific folder.


This is what i want:

Answer



Make a Main folder where to put the batched images and inside this folder make four more, one for each width: 1005, 640, 320 and 125.


Make an action and record this steps:




  • Menu File > Automate > Fit Image insert only the width, for the height keep the same number: 30000 with Don't Enlarge option active.


1005




  • Save or Export for Web and Devices > Select the .jpg options > Save it in the 1005 folder.




  • Menu File > Automate > Fit Image





640




  • Save or Export for Web and Devices > Select the .jpg options > Save it in the 640 folder.




  • Menu File > Automate > Fit Image





320




  • Save or Export for Web and Devices > Select the .jpg options > Save it in the 320 folder.




  • Menu File > Automate > Fit Image




125




  • Save or Export for Web and Devices > Select the .jpg options > Save it in the 125 folder.

  • Stop the action
