1. Re: Batch processing does not work with action
Brett N May 31, 2013 3:06 PM (in response to MAmanogabriel1)Your action doesn't to seem to include any Open actions. Why do you have the "Supress" option enabled?
Also, since your action has the two save commands, you would just leave the Destination set to None. Setting a Destination means that is going to save the files again.
The problem you'll run into though is that the action also saves the file name as part of the action, so that you'll end up just saving over the one file each time the action is played back on your 400 files. So Photoshop will process all the files, but each time it will overwrite the first file, so you'll end up with one file in each folder. Normally, in these situations, you'd use the Destination setting and use the "Overrride Action "Save As" Commands", which would substitute the Destination folder for whenever a Save command is used. The problem here is that you can only choose a single destination folder, so all files would be saved to the same location.
Short of scripting this, it may be best to break this into two separate actions.

2. Re: Batch processing does not work with action
MAmanogabriel1 May 31, 2013 3:32 PM (in response to Brett N)The Supress option is checked because I am opening a PDF file into Photoshop, and by doing this I get a opening box where I can tel photoshop which resolution to use for rastering the file. I will ttry setting the destination to none. Until now photoshop is not actually saving my file over and over, it just open the file and the action is not running. Odd.

Brett N May 31, 2013 3:41 PM (in response to MAmanogabriel1)My guess is that the action playback is getting stuck at the first save step. There is a conflict between what that step says to do and what you have setup in the action itself. You can check the history to see if the CMYK conversion has taken place.
