Ahhhh. Ok, I know this may be a little elementary to many of you, but I am having a serious problem!! I finally discovered how to use Adobe Bridge and I have saved a ton of time editing my photos. I have downloaded dj's brilliant settings and they work just fine, but when I transfered my kubota actions into my camera raw settings - they don't show up in bridge.... I am trying to prevent myself from having to open each individual photo and apply two or three actions to it. I would love it if I could do this in bridge and do 100 at a time or whatever. Is this possible? Have I missed a step or am I doing something wrong? I did notice that the file type of Kubotas actions are different from the file type of dj' settings. I don't know if this has anything to do with it....
Anyways, I would really love any advice I can get! Thanks a ton to all you pros out there!! biggrin.gif

You can't actually use the actions inside of Bridge... you need to put the actions within Photoshop its self and add them in Photoshop. What you can do however is when you output your RAW images to JPEG you can batch process and apply an action to a group of files. So for example you wanted to use "Hot Fudge" or "Daily Multi Vitamin" on a bunch of images you could high light those images, and use the image processor. When the image processor dialog appears you will see at the bottom a place to select an action you wish you use.

But the way you are thinking of them won't work... which sucks I know... it'd be really cool if they did work that way.

Hope that helps!
