Extract percentage scale of placed image, open in photoshop, rescale and replace image in indesign

Admittedly this is a bit of a long shot, but I figure it's worth asking for my own sanity.

I have the laborious task of manually resizing about 1000 images in a brochure so they appear at 100% scale in the artwork. Every image has been scaled independently and I have to copy the percentage scale, open the image in photoshop, rescale to the percentage with image size dialogue box, save the image, then relink it in indesign.

If anyone knows of a way to script this (I'm a pure designer and can't code for shiz BTW) or a purchasable plug-in for indesign I'd be most grateful for the help/guidance. I know certain software like pitstop pro will do this, but was looking for something I could run from inside indesign.

Thank you all in advance

Sounds like it might be a job for Optimize Adobe InDesign link size, resolution, color and format | LinkOptimizer

However, I have no first-hand experience of that product.

Check out this script Resize images - new version

I use it in cs3. Someone told me that he tested it in cs6 and it worked. Make sure to backup your images: the script resizes originals.

Cheers,

I ended up using link optimiser. I'm on CC and generally nothing older than CC works on it

downloaded a free trial - it was slow but it processed over 460 images that I didn't have to. Seriously considering buying it. Adobe should include this sort of thing, as it worked very much like the export panel in lightroom. Just select what you want it to do - resize, add profiles etc. Could even combine with PSD actions. Very impressive. Thanks for recommend
