You may be wondering how batch processing affects photos currently loaded in
PhotoPlus. PhotoPlus’s batch processing only operates on source folder contents
and not on the currently loaded photos themselves—so these remain unaffected.
However, as a visual check, you will see each photo temporarily being loaded
and converted one-by-one in the Photo window during batch processing.
Check the output folder via Windows Explorer to ensure the results
are as you expect.
Using macros
Macros (see PhotoPlus Help) can be applied to a batch process easily (via Use
Macros). PhotoPlus doesn’t differentiate between pre-recorded and recorded
macros. If available, they are selected from the same Category and Macro drop-
down lists equally.
Changing file type
It is possible to convert your photos into one of many different file types
available in PhotoPlus (via Change File Type). In addition, conversion options
such as bit depth, palette, dithering, compression/quality, and matte can be
selected depending on the file type.
File conversions can be carried out independently or in conjunction with macros
(the dialogs shown opposite converts each image to 24-bit PNG format).
