Photoshop: Automated process to fit to pngs template

I have 150 pngs that need to be resized to fit a sticker template to be saved as a png in another folder to be used for a print on demand store. Currently, I have to bring each png onto the sticker template, resize, center and save as a new png so that later I can upload for product creation. This is tedious and slow. Is there an automated process? Thank you much in advance.

Process automation can be achieved using data sets and methods such as "Fit." For example, Photoshop can automate tasks by fitting images to a defined area. While it may not be easy for unfamiliar users, I believe it's worth mentioning.

It's hard to offer specific advice without seeing the template and before and after images. Does the template provide extra elements or specific positioning etc.

You are correct that the default Adobe Image Processor script doesn't support PNG. There are alternatives though...

A custom extension of the Image Processor script including PNG by the late Mike Hale is available here:

Other batch scripts here:

Have a look at (in Photoshop): File > Scripts > Image Processor

Thank you. I will. I thought people showed that it could only be saved as a jpeg. I think I need a png. But will check it out. Thank you.

If you have to have PNGs perhaps you could run the Image Processor script to resize the originals and then try and find a script that converts the JPGs to PNGs – but, hopefully, JPGs will be acceptable.
