I have scanned some old film photographs three at a time on my scanner, now
rather than taking each file and cropping three times in order to get
seperate pictures is there a way to automate this as the cropping will be
identical for each file. I have 20 files with three pictures on each so
looking to end up with 60 seperate pictures.
I am currently doing this....
Taking 2 copies + original
open file
crop and then save
open copy and repeat
open other copy and repeat

thanks

Yes. Record an action that selects each part and using layers - cut to a
new layer, then the last step is to save each layer as a separate image
(under scripts).
