Wow, this article is fantastic! It really starts from step 1. I am pretty good with Lightroom but Photoshop goes over my head. When trying to work in it and find things when I have to use it after googling what I need, it feels not quite right. This is going to go a long ways to fixing that issue. Thank you so much!

Dear Helen, for many years I have benefited from your writings on Photoshop, all of them selected by you to clarify matters that users are not always able to inform themselves properly. Your name, for me, is synonymous with credibility in the field of image editing, where many pretend to do it. I take this opportunity to greet you affectionately and gratefully.

Open a file.
Record an action.
Convert to profile (adobeRGB/ sRGB)
Convert to mode (8 bits/ channel)
Save as JPEG (SPECIFY A FOLDER)
Cjose.
Now run this action through Automate> Batch.

Ahh! Thanks Helen. I was wondering why it was hit or miss. Can’t believe I didn’t catch that. Makes sense. Thank you!

@loutr if your file has layers in it the default is to save to psd. If you want to save the file as a jpeg and you don’t want to keep the layers then flatten the image before saving it by choosing Layers > Flatten Image

This might help.

Is there a way to set the default on the file save to jpg? I hate that is defaults to psd and I have to change it all the time. I haven’t been able to figure out a way to do that, if it’s possible. Thanks in advance.
