Saving batch processes as scripts

You can save batch process settings as a script or command to re-create the batch process easily
in the future. After you select all batch options in the Batch dialog box, you are given options
for saving your files.

To create a batch script:

1.
Click Save Script to create a batch script.
2.
Enter a name and destination for the script.
3.
Click Save.
Saving your script into the Commands folder on your hard disk adds it to the Commands
menu in Fireworks.
The exact location of this folder varies from system to system and depends on
whether you want the command to be available just to your user profile or to all users.
Commands folders are located in the Configuration folder in the Fireworks
application folder and also in your user-specific Fireworks configuration folder. For
more information, see

To run a batch script:
