Learn how to use Batch Processing in Photoshop to resize multiple images at once. We will use an action to resize the image.
We will start off with creating two folders to store the source and resized images, copy images into the ‘SOURCE’ folder, recording an Action to resize the image, finally resizing images at once using File>Automate>Batch. Let's get started!
