How Do I Use an ATN File in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 2:55 pm

ATN files are Photoshop actions that can be used to automate repetitive tasks. They can be created by recording your own actions or downloaded from the internet. Once you have an ATN file, you can install it in Photoshop and use it like any other action.

PRO TIP: When opening an ATN file in Photoshop, be sure to select “Load Actions” from the “File” menu, rather than “Open.” If you select “Open,” Photoshop will attempt to open the file as an image, which will fail.

To install an ATN file in Photoshop, open the Actions palette and click the menu button in the top-right corner. Choose “Load Actions” from the menu and navigate to the ATN file on your computer. Click “Open” to install the action.

Once the action is installed, you can play it back by double-clicking it in the Actions palette. You can also assign a keyboard shortcut to the action by right-clicking on it and choosing “Keyboard Shortcut.”
