Dunno, every time I open Save For Web, it seems to have only the
default settings and there are a bazillion options that I'd need to
read up on and study to use intelligibly.
I'll be happy to post my web H & V script ... I'll have to recode
them a little as they're currently built up with several smaller
scripts (I can't help but use good software engineering practices in
designing code... ;-) and of course other people don't want to insert
my IPTC metadata file. Simple scripts are pretty easy to create in
Photoshop, more complex scripts I create by integrating the small
ones together.
I'll see what I can do a little later on. Right now I need to go for
a walk...

Why don't you post your script so we can see and learn from what
you're
doing.

I see no point to using Save For Web at present. To me, it simply
presents needless additional complexity.
I use a script in Photoshop which renders all my web images now:
- resize/resample to web resolution sizing for H or V oriented photos
- convert to sRGB color space
- resharpen for web using standard settings 0.7pixels, 50%,
threshold 2
- convert to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- add white/black pixel border
- add standard IPTC metadata
- save as JPEG quality 6 with ICC embedded
Why use Save for Web?
