Batch Processing
Select multiple images and import to the application, or drag and drop entire folders.
Batch process your images to quickly improve them in a group instead of working one at a time. You can let Autopilot decide on filters for you or set the filters yourself.
With Autopilot
Open your Topaz Photo app and turn on Auto-Pilot:
- For Windows: Edit menu > Preferences > Auto-Pilot and turn on the "Automatically apply filters" - Then click Export to be able to save the files
- For Mac: Topaz Photo menu > Preferences > Auto-Pilot and turn on the "Automatically apply filters" - Then click Export to be able to save the files
Once Auto-Pilot is turned on, import all your images to Topaz Photo. By default, all images will have a green dot on the bottom left which indicates Autopilot is on.
Once the analysis on the first file is complete, click on the "Select All" checkmark in the filmstrip. Then click on Export Images. Autopilot will begin analyzing all the other files and apply the best filters as it processes each image in the queue.
With Manual Settings
To disable Autopilot for all images, go to Preferences → Autopilot and turn off Automatically apply filters. With this disabled, images imported into the application will not have edits applied automatically, and you’ll need to add adjustments manually.
To disable Autopilot for an individual image, simply make any manual edit. Once you change a setting, those manual settings will be used for that image. Autopilot will continue to run only on images that have not been manually adjusted.
