Working with Conditional Mode Change
The
Conditional Mode Change command lets you specify the conditions for
changing the mode of an image in an action. When you create an action
that changes modes, it can cause a problem when you run the action. For
example, you create an action and one of the commands is to convert the
image from RGB to Grayscale. Running the action on a file that is not
RGB will cause an error. But, what if you want to use the same action to
convert a CMYK image to Grayscale? You can if you make the mode change
within the action using Conditional Mode Change. Using this option
guarantees that you will never have a problem using an action to change
the mode of an image.

Using the Crop and Straighten Photos Command
The
Crop and Straighten Photos command is a nifty way to quickly straighten
multiple scanned images or make separate image files out of one image.
For example, you have a photograph of two people standing side-by-side,
and you want a separate image of each person. Or you have several
scanned images that weren’t quite straight on the platen. The Crop and
Straighten Photos command works best when the images in the document are
separated by some white space. When you apply the command to an image,
it looks for areas to divide based on shifts in color; no selection is
required.
