image processor script and image interpolation setting (cs3)

Hi all,

I'm using Bridge & Photoshop CS3 (mac) to process batches of photographs. I've discovered that the script "Image Processor" does not take into account the "image interpolation" setting of my General Preferences in Photoshop.

It's very painful, because I cannot use "Image Processor" any longer, as it produces soft images where I need sharp ones (my default for "image interpolation" is "bicubic sharper".

Any idea/workaround?

thanks

Patrick

Image Processor uses Fit Image to do the resizing. As you don't like to use Fit Image's BICUBIC method you sould edit that script. Change line 143 from

app.activeDocument.resizeImage(newWidth, newHeight, resolution, ResampleMethod.BICUBIC);

to

app.activeDocument.resizeImage(newWidth, newHeight, resolution, ResampleMethod.BICUBICSHARPER);

I'm so glad I ran into this post. We use the image processor everyday and it was giving us a lot of issues with the gray scale colored images. Now that I was able to edit the fit image script it works perfectly. Thanks for all the help!

Not so clever now are you Dr Brown!

Patrick, It's a bit beyond me, as it doesn't refer to any activeDocument.resizeImage to do any of it's resizing. However, I'm sure some of the more experienced minds here will be able to edit image processor that'll spew out all the images shrunk with bicubic sharper - or better still add it as a default tick box to the existing script.
