How to do a batch assign color profile in photoshop cs3 bridge?

[walkien]

I have about 400 pictures assigned to RGB color profile, how do I use photoshop cs3 bridge to re-assign all 400 picture from RGB to SRGB color profile?

RGB by itself, with no modifiers, is not a designation for a color profile. It is simply a generic description of the file type (like CYMK or grayscale). sRGB is a designation for a specific RGB profile.

If you open one of these images in PSCS3 (and if you have selected the appropriate warnings in the Color Management dialog) the program will inform you if the image is tagged with a profile other than your working color space, or if the image is not tagged at all. If the former, then just convert to sRGB. If the latter, assign sRGB profile.

I have 400 pictures assigned to a printer profile other than RGB and SRGB, I don't want to open all 400 files and re-assign them one by one, I just wondering if I can do a batch covert in Bridge?

You're changing the story. Is it RGB or is it what?

The Printer Profile that appears in PS Print Dialog will get its setting from the Profile of the image, which should be adjusted like Blumesan mentioned above. The Printer Profile will only be enabled if Photoshop manages Colors.

If you open on of the 400 images, and look in "Convert to Profile" (Edit menu), what does the top section (Source Space) say? That should be what the current image is set to, Color Profile wise. If there is something in there, other than sRGB (or whatever you want it set to), then change it here. If all 400 images are this way, then they need to be changed this way. I believe you could Record and Action to do this, then run the action against all 400 images.

If the top section is blank (shows no Source Space), then you can use "Assign Profile" (Edit Menu) like Blumesan mentioned. If all 400 images are like this, then Record and Action to do that.
