(Photos loaded to the internet don't need to have a high pixel resoluation. If converting the images for facebook, select jpeg, quality under the number 5, check 'resize to fit' and at 800 or lower number to the W & H boxes.

Select the output format - Jpeg, PSD, TIFF. Select either 'save in same location' or you can select a different location. Locate the folder where the images are stored. (Depending on your version of Adobe Software, this can also be done in Bridge.) It is done within the Image Processor which is located as follows File > Scripts > Image Processor then a pop-up screen appears. There is a very easy way to convert a group of photos to jpeg format within Photoshop.

This is generally because white balance changes, sharpening changes, and a host of other little tweaks that vary as a result of settings, light, and more.īy the way, if you haven't a lot of Photoshop experience with photographs, I'd recommend Scott Kelby's ' The Adobe Photoshop CS5 Book for Digital Photographers' as a good place to start (Google if the link doesn't work). I've only ever done it for proof images where I've totally controlled the light used in the shoot, but for anything else, including images I intend for display on the web or in print, the editing is done image by image. Personally, I would never do this for final images. You may want to experiment a little with a small set of images, but be aware that Raw conversion to JPEG is seldom, if ever really, a consistent change.

From there you will be presented with a dialog that provides a number of options for batch processing including using the first image as the basis for further changes, file type to save as, etc.

Select on the menu: 'Tools -> Photoshop -> Image Processor'.

Open bridge and find an image directory to work on.

However, if you have CS5, that means you have Adobe Bridge and the batch functionality to perform image conversion from there. Well, Facebook isn't going to handle NEF anyways.
