Export PSD as JPEG in several sizes, retaining original ppi

I am looking for a way to (batch) export PSD's to JPEG'S of different sizes, e.g. 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%.

I know the "export as" function in Photoshop does this, however it decreases the PPI drastically as it seems to be primarily designed for saving web-images.

I want to retain the original PPI (300), as my images will be used in print.

Is there another way/trick to save to JPEG's in different sizes, while retaining the original PPI?

Thanks & regards,

Erik

Download and install Image Processor Pro  it will have no problem doing that but if you want to do relative resizing by Percentages you will need to record a simple one step action for each relative image size.   If you just want to resize image to fit ins some number of pixels  the image processor pro can do the without any actions.  Changing the number of pixels you have for and image does not change the image print resolutuion however it does loose some image quality.

If you want to keep the images image quality you can change the print size by changing the print resolution  and keep the image pixels the same

Thank you JJMack, today I installed IPP and it even allows me to resize relatively! One remaining question is whether I should use resampling or not (if I resize to, say, 50%)?

With image processors you are crating new output image files. If you use their resize option it will resample your image for the output file you want.  Your original file remains unchanged. All output files newly created files.
