Batch Processing

[nikonuser]

I have received about 120 images of my Daughters wedding but they are all at a resolution of 72ppi.
Is there anyway that these can be batch processed to increase the resolution to say 300ppi.
I have CS5 and Lightrom 3 any help would be appreciated, and if you could explain the steps that would be even better!!
Thanks
Dave

Hi Dave

If they are raws and you are running them through Lightroom, just set the ppi to 300 (in the export panel) when you batch them out of LR into jpeg .....

hi dave, open cs5 and select open in there should be process multiple files and then select it to do what you want.

I wouldn't do that, open a 120 files in photoshop and you'll be there all day doing them one at a time, and it may crash photoshop.
Open one image then make an action to resize it, then run the action as a batch action on the folder.

Are talking about in ACR or opening 120 windows in photoshop proper?

Droplets (which are based on action) are perfect for this
