    Batch Resizing?

    I'm sorting thru about 500 or so photos for a guy at work to look at for catalog covers. I want to burn them to a CD for him, but I don't want to send him 500 high resolution files. I just got PS CS up and running yesterday. Is there a way that I can do a batch resize so I don't have to do each one individually? I'm working with large .jpegs if that helps. If PS CS wont do it, will one of the programs that came with my DRebel? Any help would be greatly appriciated.

    Re: Batch Resizing?

    I just ran a short test with PS CS. Make an action to do the resize and then use the Automate/Batch in the filebrowser while your pics are all selected. specify a different folder and supress the opening and closing saving commands in the action. The little test worked fine. try it on backed up stuff.

    I have in the past used irfanview for this kind of task and it seemedto work well.
