Automation Achieved!

I finally did it!

I finally got screen capturing online banners automated. Instead of pasting screen grabs on Word and painstakingly formatting the frames there one by one, I now simply use Photoshop's batch automation after screen capturing. Of course, I had to figure out the steps involved in cropping the images ahead of time, but once I had them resolved, all I had to do is set the origin and destination folders and click start.

In less than 10 seconds, I have all the frames cropped, reduced to size and ready for insertion in Word. Now, I don't have to work hard to produce PDFs of the banners; I only need to work smart.
