Hi all, I'm Richard, a newbie to this site, but not to PS. Been using it, albeit in a fairly basic way from CS2 to CS6. As my photography commitments have increased it has become obvious to me that my workflow needs attention. As a result, I've experimented with actions and am becoming a tad baffled.
I shoot Nikon RAW but publish a fair bit to CD at 300 dpi and for web use at 72 dpi. When doing the action for web use I
1/ open the raw file
2/ alter size and resolution
3/ add copyright notice on another layer
4/ flatten the layers
5/ Save As... jpg max resolution
6/ Close file, open next one
My problem is that if I include the the file name that I'm saving as, every subsequent file is named with the identical file name. How can I get around this? Is it straightforward or seriously tricky?
Someone must have the answer: it must be a fasirly common workflow problem?
Cheers and thanks to anyone who knows the answer!
