Thanks r-bin.

Do I need to change some values in the script, for using first option of teh screen shot "Large file size" (Fastest saving).

Compression = 9 means what? It will save file fast or slow?

Do you want to ask for Photoshop action and what will be recorded? Below is sample, action step will contain optimization method so the answer in that case is yes. Note: step shown below is recorded using Save As command.

Thanks, but is it possible without action. I mean using Photoshop API.

Here is what I am doing via script.

var url = '/Users/abc/Desktop/test.png';

var img = new PNGSaveOptions();

img.compression = 0;

app.activeDocument.saveAs(new File(url), img, true, Extension.LOWERCASE);

So, I am using this script, is there a way to specify quick method here?

I am not script guy so you must wait for someone else to respond.
