Batch Processing

2

Batch ProcessingBatch processing is the ability to process multiple images at once without having to go through each tedious editing task manually for every image. You can easily apply a single set of adjustments to multiple images quickly.

You can use Photoshop’s Batch processing feature along with Topaz DeNoise to easily process all of your images.

Batch processing has two main parts:1. Actions2. Batch Automation

ActionsActions are a great way to speed up and simplify edit-ing steps and tasks in Photoshop. Actions allow you to record your workflow. As you are recording, Photo-shop is capturing a memory of your steps that it will be able to reapply on any image.
