184 Tutorial: Handling Photographs
Batch process large image files
When the source of your image files is a digital camera, you probably won’t
be able to use the images directly as web graphics. The size and resolution
are much too great. You may also want to alter the composition so that
only parts of the photographs are used.
When all the image files require the same adjustments, you can eliminate
the time-consuming process of opening and modifying each file by batch
processing the image files.
For the Cafe Townsend project, you decide to batch process the six JPEG
files downloaded from a digital camera. You want to perform the following
actions to all the files:
■
Because the images have different dimensions, you want to resize them
so they are all same width.
■
Because the filenames are not very informative, you want to add a
“dish_” prefix to the filenames to better describe the images.
The first step is to select the files you want to process.
If you haven’t already set up a working folder, you must do so before you
begin. For instructions, see “Setting Up Your Site and Project Files.”
1.
In Fireworks, select File > Batch Process.
The Batch dialog box appears.
2. Browse to the following folder on your hard disk:
local_sites/cafe_townsend/fireworks_assets/camera_files
The folder contains six JPEG images downloaded from a
digital camera.
3. To quickly select all the files for the batch, click Add All, and then
click Next.
The Batch Process dialog box appears. This dialog box lets you specify
the actions you want to perform on a batch of files. In this case, you
want to scale and rename your files.
4. Under Batch Options, select Scale, and then click Add to include the
action in the batch process.
