Thank you Eric for your valuable insights.

I agree, if your photo shoot consists of landscape and portrait formats there’s no option for resizing based on the longest dimension of the image which can be quite frustrating.

That’s very interesting you should mention the difference in quality between Photoshop and Lightroom when saving / exporting to jpeg. I’ve never noticed that before which is why I’d like to do a comparison to satisfy my own curiosity.

Since I think in terms of inches when downsizing to 72dpi, (or whatever dpi) this dialog in PS really isn’t useful for me for this purpose. I want to be able to set the long dimension ONLY and let the short dimension fall where it may. If you have a mix of horizontal, vertical shots, and cropped images, the physical size will end up all over the place and in the instance of cropped images, distorted.

Where the Image Processor IS useful is when I have batch of 16bit tiffs that need to be converted to jpegs. PS does a MUCH MUCH better job of this compared to using LR to just export the images as jpegs. 100% jpeg quality in LR is not as good as “12” quality outputs from PS.

I was very surprised to find this out when highlights from LR jpeg outputs from RAW originals lost detail in the highlights vs converting in PS from 16bit LR outputs.
