Im hoping someone can help me with Droplets. I created a droplet to BATCH convert psd files to reduced size 150 DPI pdfs. My action is good and everything seems ok- but it only converts one file at a time. It doesnt do a BATCH conversion when I drop multiple files into the droplet. Is there a setting that Im missing that would help me batch convert a multitude of files at one time? Im using Mac Venture 13.5.1- Thank you!

@Chi26889463y2wh – It would help if you posted a screenshot of the action with all steps expanded/visible and a screenshot of the batch settings in use.

 

Although not a droplet, I'm going to recommend the following script as an alternative:

I'd suggest that you change the following line from:

var myBrush = g.newBrush(g.BrushType.SOLID_COLOR, [0.99, 0.99, 0.99, 1]);

 

To:

var myBrush = g.newBrush(g.BrushType.THEME_COLOR, "appDialogBackground");
