Resizing large number of jpegs?

[luckygohappy456]

How do i resize a large number (say, more than 1000) of images? I have tried using Adobe Bridge but because it autorotates them i have to select all the vertical images manually, then all the horizontal images, then batch them to carry out a specific action I made for the size i want.... There has to be an easier way to do this!

i also have Lightroom but have not yet figured out how to put it to good use. Is there a specific command that selects only the vertical images?

Have a look at this thread, it shows how to run one action for portrait and another for landscape.

Quite simple actually.

Let's say you want the long side of all image 1024px.

Then all you have to do is file / automate / fit image...

Enter 1024px for both width AND height.

Photoshop will then automatically adjust the longest side to 1024px and the shortest side will be scaled by taking the aspect ratio into account.
