Issue: Reduce the size of multiple pictures using Photo Pos Pro Scripts & Batch Operations tool.

With Photo Pos Pro Scripts & Batch Operations tool you can easily reduce the size of multiple pictures. Suppose you took pictures with a digital camera and you wish to send them by e-mail to a friend. You wish to decrease the size of the pictures so that they won't take up so much space when sending them by e-mail. To perform the operation, follow the following steps:

5. Select the Scripts & Batch Operations tool's window (click on its title bar).
6. Press on the Add Command button - in the toolbar. Select the Resize (%) command and press OK to authorize.
7. Select the command from the list and set the new picture size using the New Size (%) slider. In order to decrease the picture to a quarter of its original size, select the 50 value.
8. In the Output File Format box select the jpg (Jpeg) option. This way the decreased files will be saved in the Jpeg format-a common format used for sending pictures through e-mail.
