In Photoshop every time i save in Jpeg it pops a window asking me about the quality.

Is there a way to set a default quality and skip the pop up window ?

Two other options not yet mentioned:

 

1) You can record the batch automation script "Image Processor Pro" into an action. This will then save without any pop-ups.

 

https://sourceforge.net/projects/ps-scripts/files/Image%20Processor%20Pro/v3_2%20betas/

 

 

2) A custom script can be used to save to JPEG:

 

 

// Save As a Copy to JPEG (original file left open)

#target photoshop

var doc = app.activeDocument;
var docName = doc.name.replace(/\.[^\.]+$/, '');
var docPath = Folder.selectDialog('Select a folder to save the JPEG file to:', '~/Desktop/');

var saveFileNamePath = new File(docPath + '/' + docName + '.jpg');
saveJPG(saveFileNamePath);
alert('JPEG Saved!');

function saveJPG(saveFileNamePath) {
    var jpgOptions = new JPEGSaveOptions();
    jpgOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
    jpgOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE; // or OPTIMIZEDBASELINE or PROGRESSIVE
    jpgOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;
    jpgOptions.quality = 12; // image quality (0-12)
    activeDocument.saveAs(saveFileNamePath, jpgOptions, true); // false to show dialog
}

You can also record Photoshop action to save with certain quality. The only problem with action is that you must record and location so it will always save file in the same location. If you turn on modal to see Save As dialogue then you will see and quality pop-up.

Hi

You could set the quick export format to JPG and then do a File > Export > Quick Export as JPG

Quick Export would be truly brilliant, if they could only give us a possibility to embed the color profile. As it is, it's utterly useless.

 

I don't get it. Why is someone at Adobe so afraid of color profiles if there's only the slightest chance that the resulting file may end up on the web? What are they afraid of? Who's deciding this?
