Yup - you nailed all the reasons below why I use image ready for batch. Although I have found batch processing in Macromedia MX to be just as fast and robust. Perhaps that is even a better option for the more possiblye likeli support of being able to use other Macr tools like coldfusion.. just another idea..
Actually - I hope the original poster -if he solves the issue responds back to the list with his findings.. my mind envisions me on a beach chair : while an image editing software is working it's but off ; with the thought of setting something like that up. I didn't even consider that route and am going the flash mx - load jpg to create certain graphical elements as flash which indeed could be handled as jpgs instead with some functionality loss - but I would love to test them together. good luck jay miller Adrocknaphobia Jones wrote: >I agree.
