Auto make jpegs out of layers?

posted about 1 month ago by Ben Danger

I am scanning a shitload of old hand drawn stuff and I have like pages set up on layers. Is there a way I can make photoshop export each layer as a jpeg automatically?

    You could probably write an action for it.

    1.

    I run CS.

    FILE > SCRIPT > Export Layers to Files

    It comes default with PS.

    2.

    i have a script attached to a function key.

    when pressed, will save a jpeg of the current display, so you could go from top, press function, turn off layer, repeat downwards.

    script is http://jimiyo.com/downloads/savejpeg.js

    only works on pc.

    to set up,

    1. start action recording
    2. file > script > load the script
    3. stop action recording
    4. assign function key to action
