macro or batch save as and close?


Recommended Posts

all winter I go out on Thursday morning and take pictures of the ice cliffs in my area. I usually end up with 40 or more images. FWIW I have been doing this for 20 years. I open all of the images in PS, go through them one by one, tweak and crop each image if necessary and add a logo with the date. (I won't into the lack of a crop-to-selection feature or the fact that macros can't deal with text here... [sigh] )

that said, once the edit process is complete, I run a batch process that basically runs an action on all open files to do a save-as for each image into a particular location and then closes each file without saving the original image. IS THIS POSSIBLE?

No. Macros cannot perform a Save or Save As operation, nor an Export.
