Batch job - afphoto files

[livetheshot]

Hi,

 

Will the final release allow us to select AFPhoto files to add to the batch jobs?

 

Also, is there a way to adjust the dpi in the batch job?  This would be really handy if we want to create a 72 dpi version for screen display only.

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

Yep - both of those things will become available during the beta :)

 

Thanks,

Computer screens only know about pixels, so DPI is irrelevant for screen display. You just need to set the appropriate pixel dimensions.

Let me rephrase, 72 dpi for web optimised images ;)

That's a myth which is probably so widespread because of Photoshop's 'Save for Web' option; the truth is that DPI is completely irrelevant for web pages. If you don't believe me, here are some good articles on the subject:
