Do you know how to correctly save and load a deck with another plugin? I.e., are you doing it right or is this an issue specific to your plugin?

As always, post you plugin can I can test it.

Regarding resizing, photoshop can batch resize all the images really easily.

Okay, let's say I have all the cards in a pdf and they're butted up against one another? how can I batch crop those? I looked it up online but it didn't really help..

I have CS4
all the cards are in one .pdf

the dimensions are something like 399x454 (totally a guess, I forget)
suggestions?

Save the PDF pages as jpg files.  Open the jpg files and then re-save them in Photoshop as jpg's.  (For some reason if I dont do that step I don't get good results).  Then, you can test the automation to see if it works by opening your new jpg, going to File-->automate-->crop & straighten and see how your results are.  If that works, you can create an action you can use to batch everything.  If this doesn't make sense, PM me and I'll explain it more.  I'm not sure how to export my current photoshop settings, but if you know how let me know.  I'll show you what I have set up - it works quite well.
