i want to export pixel dimensions and color space data from a few thousand images to text files. i discovered that the information can be exported as a metadata template from file info (camera data 2), but i have been unable to record the necessary action for the purpose of doing this in a batch process. when i try to record the action, nothing is recorded other than opening and closing the file.
no one has any ideas as to how to make photoshop record the action, but someone suggested that a script might be able to do it. any ideas?
any way to do this would be fine. i'm not wedded to the metadata template, although i would be able to process those files easily enough.
i should tell you i've written maybe 4 or 5 successful applescripts in my life, almost all of them for the finder, so please be very explicit.
thanks
