  9. Click Save.batch export ps 14
  10. You may need to customize the save as settings for different output format.batch export ps 15
  11. Then stop the recording, the single conversion action is just finished and recorded.batch export ps 11

  13. Select the set and action we just created.batch export ps 17
  14. Choose the input folder where you store all the images.batch export ps 18
  15. (optional) if you want to change the output path, choose the destination folder and check Override action “save as”commands. If you want to save the output images to the same location as the first converted image, skip it.batch export ps 19
