There are variances but not enough to really nit pick over. But this was because each of the 135 images from the 169 were very similar, 3:2 ratio, very close in megapixel size etc. LR/Mogrify 2 enabled me to do 135 in one go pretty swiftly, meaning it managed the bordering AND watermark in one batch process. I just finished an album, 169 images where I had to do this. I guess the video shows a border solution only, much like the LR Print module ideas do too, but none of these suggestions can solve the idea of placing the watermark in the bordering as well, or do they? I mean from a purely batch process perspective. Helpful Hints for Creating Actions in Photoshop - YouTube
Quick Tips for the Lightroom Print Module - YouTube Lightroom 5: Print the Perfect Image - YouTube There is much to think about doing your borders with Photoshop, and possible-īut, Lightroom makes it simpler! Select, choose template, Print to File, (rename). Using "percentage" in the Photoshop canvas size will not create fixed size borders, as every image may have different 'pixel' dimensions to base the percentage on (unless you are working with images of same pixel dimensions- exported by Lightroom?).Īnd from Photoshop it will always be a double-step to Export to Photoshop, apply actions, then Save from Photoshop (unless you can use image processor to batch the changes) But yes you could define actions that might do what you want- even multiple steps to widen the lower border and 'place' a logo, etc. The linked youtube video is for Photoshop, and as illustrated, canvas size can be increased by an action with many options, but this does not address the 'Paper -size and ratio' that you intend to finally print (Not a problem if you intend to supply digital image files). Identity plates can be very creative using text or images as logos (Create logos with transparency as PNG files), and also set for Opacity, Scale, etc. Identity Plates can be placed anywhere on the paper page- so that can be on the image area or on the defined white border. Watermarking can only be applied over/across/onto the image area. Photoshop action for adding border to multiple images with different aspect ratio - YouTubeīut then I still have to work out a process to then add the watermarking, to be scaled and fit right inside the applied bordering. I saw this today, thought this might work if I use 'percentage' instead of pixels? This doesn't address watermarking inside the border though. it strikes me this part of photography isn't getting enough attention, is there an advanced program that might do what Mogrify 2 can do but better, with previews etc? I'll have a look again, I might be missing some options, I don't know the plugin that well. I don't even mind sorting the images out in terms of orientation (portrait shots vs landscape), and then processing them separately, but the Mogrify 2 has no preview mode, so you're also just having to wait for the export of 'x' amount of shots, then go back and see which images have the bordering and watermark in really bad placements and go back and try fixing again. Even if two images are same aspect ratio, if one is heavily cropped and the other native, applying the same border will mean different thickness. It was ok, but it seems restrictive with applying bordering in terms of only pixel parameters and not percentage. There has to be a quick way to handling this, even outside of LR/PS? that means popping into PS for each and every shot (for this process) whereas it's quite feasible I edited things purely in LR (and used Syncing features) to be quick about things, popping into PS for this process for each and every shot kinda defeats the purpose. It's ok when doing it for a shot here or there, but I also do event work (paid and non paid), the non paid stuff I tend to always watermark like this, but if there are 20, 40, 100 shots like this.
Thus far I have done this process by taking the image to PS (if not already in PS) and then increasing Canvas size and dragging my PNG water mark inside and resizing and positioning it (ZZzzzz.) Probably hard to see on this forum due to the white background, but the signature is sitting in a white border frame. I'm looking for a solution to batch processing images where I can add white bordering and my signature/watermark inside the bordering, like shown below
