: How to batch convert all Camera Raw 2 files to jpg? I know how to do this using image processing in Adobe Bridge, but I want to also adjust the image brightness and levels and also place

@Murray976

If you will be working on each particular photo, then you should consider Adobe Lightroom (you can download a trial and see if you like it).

You could use Photoshop or Bridge, but you will find you can do much more with a program that was actually created for this need. It's Photoshop for photography postproduction. I think the best thing is that it can handle ridiculously large files and it kind of has Bridge included in it, because you can manage them inside the program.

You can do batch processing in Lightroom too, you use the Presets.


Presets are very similar to Adobe Photoshop's actions. They allow
users to one run a program and then the settings for that program will
be applied to all the photos in a set. Lightroom presets work a little
different than Photoshop actions since they don't need to be created
manually. (source)

Create an action to do what you want (adjust brightness, create text layer for watermark etc. and save), then go the file > automate > batch dialog and run it on all your files.
