John Dowell Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I have about 400 photo files scanned at various resolutions that I need to resize so that they are all at a consistent width of 20cm at 300dpi. When I open each file the units defaults to pixels. Is it possible to choose to default to centimetres, so that when I open the resize document menu I wouldn't have to change the units from pixels to centimetres each time before changing the size and dpi.

walt.farrell Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 No, that's not possible. When you open an existing image the units will default to px. But what you could do is use a batch job, via File > New Batch Job. You would load the files into the batch job, and specify the desired output format and width. You would also specify a macro to set the dpi. You can download that macro from the Resources forum, here: John Rostron 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.3, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.3.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
