  • Question about recording action to save successive jpg’s

    Posted by Mark Landsburger on September 9, 2008 at 5:37 pm

    Hi,

    I could use some help on something which would save me a lot of time.

    I have a psd with MANY layers, and I need to save each layer as a jpg. I tried to create an action, but the action just rewrites the new layer over the old file name (so I only ever have one jpg total).

    #1 – Is there a way to have it automatically add something to the end of a file name and not overwrite (sort of like Premier does with each new video capture)

    #2 – Is there a better way of doing this?

    Thanks a bunch
    Lands
