That wasn't stated in your original post Tom ;)
that is why I said 'if' as the first word in my reply, knowing it was probably a big if... cropping out photo's is something I do as reference for drawing... and as Keith said there is no 'quick' way to do this if 'every one is different' that's just a fact of life
@EGG and GARY call me a pedant if you will, but since when has resizing been the same as cropping... or am I missing something... ?
@HD You're pedant ;)
c'est moi [or should that be: c'est je :eek:]
When I was at school [quite a while ago] resizing was something you did with canvas and crop had something to do with horses... you just never know in this world.... :D
In that case I would create a bunch of rectangles to your final size. Then drag and drop the photos onto the rectangle (I think I already said this?). You can still resize as necessary with the Fill Tool or the Photo Tool smart resize.Quote:
It would seem that my method may be the best. I was really hoping someone would say "Duh. Why wouldn't you do x?" As for applying math or a specific page, the crops are quite variable. The crop takes place at different places and at various magnifications (reductions, actually) of the original. Sometimes orientation is switched.
I am not a pendent.
If the images are in the right aspect ratio, you can use the Crop tool with the Lock aspect ticked and Current selected. Otherwise pick from ratios 3:2, 4:3 and 16:9.
Crop to the need. Then resize each to the first you sized as 1024px wide.

oh I'm sure you've been seen to hang out in your time Gary ;)
Acorn on the other hand appears pedantic ...
I guess the crop tool on fixed aspect and ratio 4:3 sounds like it might do the job except I find the opaquing [is that a word?] of the image area outside the crop more of a nuisance than doing it with intersect - and still have to resize afterwards...
and another reason I don't use crop tool is it does not crop groups in toto [as in latin that is, not rock]
