changing .bmp to .jpg to .png

Hi,

I have a bunch of .bmp files that need to be converted to .png files. Some of the .bmp files cannot be made into .png files without being converted to .jpg files first.聽 The first action does the .bmp --%26gt; to .jpg.聽 The second action finishes up the process converting the .jpg to .png.

I would make the change over into one long action: Process1.聽 But when I convert one file to another and save to another location, I need to open that same file name with the different extension and then run the second process.

So I've got two separate actions now and run one after the other.聽 Being on the lazy side, you know, one less click is a wonderful thing..., can I combine the actions or is there a way to do Process1 all at one time?

thanks for all help!

make an action that saves a file to .png and then run it on the rest of the files. If you want to save using 8bit png then use File-%26gt;Save for Web %26amp; Devices and make sure that you select png-8 otherwise use File-%26gt;Save. Note that if you save using the Save for Web %26amp; Devices command then you will save all your files in the folder specified by it, it cannot be overriden using the Batch command. If you save the file using 24bit png(using File-%26gt;Save) then when using File-%26gt;Batch to automate the process make sure that Override Action ''Save As'' Commands is selected and select the folder where you want to save your files
