Default 4x5 aspect ratio files

If I want to send 200 files to my lab for printing and they say to have "4x5 aspect ratio files" with 300 dpi, does this mean I have to go in and open up all 200 files in Photoshop and resave them as 4x5 images?? If so can I create an action to make this go faster??

Thanks in advance for any help!

Does your lab use roes ordering? If I remember you use WHCC as I do. If this is the case you just crop in Roes & they will be resized at the other end.

If you really care about the final outcome, you will actually crop each one yourself. If you used an action, where are you cropping? Center? Upper Left? Etc....

You can adjust the crop in ROES, too. It takes about 2 seconds per image. BTW, letting the lab just do the crop for you gives them 2" of latitude for the crop. 2" can change the composition dramatically.
