Batch Cropping allows the user to crop any number of images in a folder in an automated manner, using the “Actions” scripting feature found in the full version of Photoshop. This is called Automation, and in this case, Batch Processing. Automation uses a set of user-defined actions to perform a series of tasks automatically.

You can create an action that will resize and image, apply a 5 pixel border, or convert it to a grayscale image. You can create an action combining many steps in a single process.
