One-Key export as JPEG 12 with Metadata

Good afternoon,

 

I am a photographer and I finalise the edit of my best pictures in photoshop.

After editing the .tif, I want to save them as .tif ; and .jpeg of the best quality and with metadata.

 

However, none of the options I have suit my workflow:

- Quick export = max quality isn't maximum

- Save as, change to jpeg, has TWO loadings (to the first popup and then the quality popup) and five clicks. It's abnsolutely uneffective to use.

- Making an action to save as, selects the folder in which I record the action instead of an automated "same as the current version" folder.

 

Indeed, I am asking you for a real solution to export in one key (for example, ctrl+<) a JPEG in the SAME location as the current file, with Metadata, maximum quality.

 

To go even further, having a function that automatically saves at the same time a .TIF, a full JPEG and a cropped quality JPEG for web with a maximum size of for example 4mo would be simply awesome.

 

Thank you for giving feedback,

Martin Dedron

Saving the open TIFF and creating the full size JPEG to the same location is easy enough with a script and custom keyboard shortcut.

 

More info is required on the smaller crop version, however to target a required max file size is more work, but doable.
