How to paste a text in the same place in an Action...

Postby winters on Tue Oct 13, 2009 4:03 pm

I want to make an Action which pastes my URL into a photo, then moves the text to the lower left bottom of the image, and then saves the image as a JPG.

The problem is that when I use a batch to run the action, the text is placed in a different place depending on the dimensions of the original picture! (For example if some are portrait-oriented and some are landscape-oriented.)

Until now I've solved it by resizing all images to the same height, but that should really not be necessary. How do I make an Action which can do this in a Batch?!

Hi

If you create a text box in the bottom left hand corner of your photo and add the text left-justified, the action should place it in the same spot for both upright and landscape shots. You create the text box by drawing a marquee with the text tool.
