I have several layers in a Photoshop document that I would like to convert to smart objects (I'm going to be doing a lot of resizing). However, when I right click or use the menu command to do so, all the selected layers are flattened into one smart object. Is there a way to batch convert several layers into their own smart objects?

I realize at this point it might be just easier to use InDesign.

I don't know of a way to do this directly in Photoshop.

You can use scripts to do this through Bridge. You can convert files from Bridge to smart objects by dragging them into Photoshop. You will have to export the layers to files first though.

Way too late to answer, but for anyone else who might end up here: You can try this adobe plugin:

Apart from this, I think Layrs Control 2 which used to be a free program was able to do it.
