Siva's Photoshop Conditional Action

Sivaratnam Gunaratnam has created an “Image Processor“-like script for Photoshop CS2 that will run actions based on various conditions including:

  • File Format
  • Height
  • Width
  • Resolution
  • Color Mode
  • etc.

I haven't tried every condition, but it seems to work as advertised, even if the UI is a little ragged.

Yeah, I've played with it as well, but not enough to provide any useful commentary one way or the other. But, I'm sure it's worth ever penny--afterall, it's free! :)

Thanks for all your hard work Siva, and I plan to experiment with it some more and provide feedback.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for including my script in your blog.

Its just a personal script that saved lots of my time and decided to share it with fellow photoshoppers.

cheers,

p/s : btw, just wondering whether is it possible for us to use actions to run a script? i tried it but got the error "The command "Scripts" is not currently available" .

[ Playing scripts from actions works. Playing an action that calls a script from a script doesn't. This is a known issue/limitation. - J ]
