    Image Processor Creates New Folder

    thanser Community Member

      Why?

       

      I already have a folder that I'm selecting in the Image Processor dialogue box. 

       

      Let's stay I'm processing RAW files and I want to have them saved as PSD files in a folder named PSD.  If a folder already exists named PSD, this action I'm running creates a NEW folder named PSD, within the existing folder named PSD.

       

      Crazy, I know, and annoying.  And I never told it to do that.

       

      What am I doing wrong?

       

      Thanks.

          Tried it myself and it seems indeed a bit crazy, when using the script in PS itself (File/Scripts/Image Processor) you have the ability to check the option to keep the folder structure. Using the script in Bridge this option is not there and it creates subfolder for each file type.

           

          Normal I have no use for Image processor (I have a bunch of own created actions in PS I work with) but Russell Brown (the 'mad' professor at Adobe) has created that script and has his own website:

          Check this out and see for the new (beta version) image processor Pro (The movie did not start in Safari on my system but played well using Firefox) and there are a lot more options to play with
