The
Image Processor converts and processes multiple files. Unlike the
Batch command, the Image Processor lets you process files without
first creating an action. You can do any of the following in the
Image Processor:
Convert a set of files to either
JPEG, PSD, or TIFF format; or convert files simultaneously to all
three formats.
Process a set of camera raw files using the same options.
Resize images to fit within specified pixel dimensions.
Embed a color profile or convert a set of files to sRGB and
save them as JPEG images for the web.
Include copyright metadata into the converted images.
The
Image Processor works with Photoshop (PSD), JPEG, and camera raw
files.
Select the images you want to process. You can choose
to process any open files, or select a folder of files to process.
(Optional) Select Open First Image To Apply Settings
to apply the same settings to all the images.
If you are processing a group of camera raw files taken
under the same lighting conditions, you can adjust the setting in
the first image to your satisfaction and then apply the same settings
to the remaining images.
Use this option with PSD or JPEG
source images if the file’s color profile does not match your working
profile. You can choose a color profile in which to convert the
first image and all images in the folder.
Note: The settings
you apply with the Image Processor are temporary and used only with
the Image Processor. The image’s current camera raw settings are
used to process the image, unless you change them in the Image Processor.
Select the location where you want to save the processed
files.
If you process the same file multiple times to the same
destination, each file is saved with its own file name and not overwritten.
Select the file types and options to save.
Save As JPEG
Saves images in JPEG format within a folder called JPEG
in the destination folder.
Quality
Sets the JPEG image quality between 0 and 12.
Resize To Fit
Resizes the image to fit within the dimensions you enter
in Width and Height. The image retains its original proportions.
Convert Profile To sRGB
Converts the color profile to sRGB. Make sure that Include
ICC Profile is selected if you want to save the profile with the
image.
Save As PSD
Saves images in Photoshop format within a folder called
PSD in the destination folder.
Maximize Compatibility
Saves a composite version of a layered image within the
target file for compatibility with applications that can't read
layered images.
Save As TIFF
Saves images in TIFF format within a folder called TIFF
in the destination folder.
LZW Compression
Saves the TIFF file using the LZW compression scheme.
Set other processing options.
Run Action
Runs a Photoshop action. Choose the action set from the
first menu and the action from the second menu. The action set must
be loaded in the Actions palette before they appear in these menus.
Copyright Info
Includes any text you enter in the IPTC copyright metadata
for the file. Text you include here overwrites the copyright metadata
in the original file.
Include ICC Profile
Embeds the color profile with the saved files.
Click Run.
Before you process your images, click

I tried using Bridge CS3 and once in the image processor I checked the - Open first image to apply settings and once clicking Run I do not see the first image come up to make changes. It does resize the images to the px I set in the Save as JPG
My camera saves my images as jpg. Does this feature only work for RAW camera format images?
