How to Batch Resize (to inches) in CS6 Bridge?

I have folders of image files that I want to resize & send to people for their printing.  I've found that resizing to 4"x6"x300Res seems to be less confusing for many people who receive my images.  I know how to batch resize in Photoshop's image processor, but inches isn't an option provided for the resized images.  I haven't been able to figure out how to batch resize in Bridge or to express output dimensions as inches in Photoshop.  This is a major problem for me.

Ok, let's look at logic. You have Resize to Fit in Image Processor. 4 inches multiplied by 300 are 1200 pixels, right? 6 inches multiplied by 300 are 1800 pixels. You can use that numbers. Another question is what is current resolution of your images? If images have different resolution then you need simple action to change resolution during batch process.

There are a couple of other options: Image Processor Pro should have inches, try to download and install it from here Scripts Page Another option is to record action which you can play during batch process in Image Processor.

If you cannot record action then I can do that for you and post it here. Information that I need:

What orientation are your images? They are all landscape, portrait or mixed?

I will guess that your images already have proportions 4x6, otherwise you will need to crop them manually or to look for some alternative of simple action.

What is current resolution, do images need change in resolution or not?
