Hi,

I need to batch my 57 mulit page pdf that needs to be opened in photoshop, resized and then saved for web as a png-24 bit.

I've set up an action to do the above, and ran a batch on it, but for some reason it just doesn't seem to work for me.

When I ran the batch this is what I had chosen:
Set: Default Actions
Action: The defined action i set for above

Source: is from a folder with the pdf inside
- I have override action "open" commands selected

Destination: folder I chose

I had it working when I did a save and close, but it was saving over the other pngs.

So I'm not exactly sure where I'm going wrong

Anyone have a clue on how I should go about doing this?

Thanks!

Working with PDF's can be difficult and you will not be able to work on more than one page using actions, this is why I wrote a PDF processor and can be downloaded here.

NB: the last one will work in Photoshop CS2 or better.
