How to create a single action for adding a border and signature for portrait AND landscape images???

i would love to be able to create a single photoshop action for adding a border, plus a signature in the bottom right corner, that works for both portrait and landscape images.
need i say more?!
i already have an action that adds a signature in the centre of the border at the bottom of the image e.g. the image below. what i want though is for that signature to be on the RHS and for the same action to work for portrait images as well.
supplementary info: reason for this is that I want to be able to export 300 wedding images (mix of landscape and portrait images) from lightroom in my pre-selected order (meaning the files are labelled from 001 to 300, ordered according to how the wedding day unfolded) and then use PS to add the border and the signature, in the same place, and for it to work for both orientations.
i need this to work for full sized exported jpeg images, i.e. i want the files that i give on CD to my clients to include my signature in this manner. so I don't want to copy the initial layer and then reduce the second layer size to leave a border around the second layer.
i hope i've been clear and that someone can help me here. I think that this sort of presentation makes such a difference to final printed image, and I DONT want to have to go to all 300 images picking out the landscape from portrait ones (although this may be what I have to do and wouldn't really take that long but surely there's a better way!!!!).
Thanks in advance photoshoppers ...

It is actually quite easy to do if you have a good understanding of how Photoshop works.  To be able to handle any size Landscape and Portrait you need to scale the document to a known width or height.  Once the document is resized to the width or height it easy.  When yot resize the document you use Image size with resample NOT checked.  Not a single image pixels is changed all the happens is the documents DPI is set to the proper DPI resolution to print that size.  This lets you add a border sized for and document.  You can use Canvas Size check relative and  leatve the anchor point centered and set width and height to 2" this will add 1"on all sides. Use Canvas size a second time move the anchor point to the top center check relative and set height 1" the will add an additional 1" border on the bottom.  You then record a text layer with your Name title or what ever to the top left of the image. Select all ant the align the text layer to the selection to move it to the bottom right.
Adding a couple of scripts to the action you can make sure there is a background layer so the added canvas will be filled with pixels.  You can restore the document to its original DPI resolution to retain the images print size. Down load my crafting actions package it contains a dozen scripts to be used within actions. There are text file with tips and guidelines additionaly there is one on dealing with document size and includes a sample action set with a watermarking action the can watermark and size image. The Action set is also saved as a text file with additional comments I added my downloads can be found here http://mouseprints.net/Photoshop.html

  • How to create a single action listener for a group of buttons

    hi there.. i am new at java and i have a problem with my applet..

  • Adobe premiere elements 12 - how to create menu bar action for my inserted image button

    adobe premiere elements 12 - how to create menu bar action for my inserted image button without using their movie menu theme

    forbemag
    I do not think that I am completely focused into this completely, so let us see if the following is going to help.
    You are going to need a base for your button. When you mention "image" button, I am assuming that you are using that term to differentiate between a text button and a thumbnail type button.
    The menus (main and scene) take their origin in .psd files on the hard drive and strict nomenclature and structure for Layers Palatte. And, the buttons on the menus trace back to the menu markers on the Timeline, main menu marker and order of placement of scene markers. The scene thumbnail will only appear when there is a scene marker on the Timeline to which it.
    In view of all that
    Where have you already inserted this "image (button)"...into the Layers Palette of a Photoshop document or other? Is this "image (button)" in a structured Layer Group in the Layers Palette with sublayer groups, text layers, graphic/background layer"?
    Let me give you an example
    If you have a button (with thumbnail) on the main menu and you want that to open to a specific scene in your movie, then you use a main menu marker on the Timeline at the spot that you want that button to target.
    If I am getting closer to what you seek, then please further clarify the DVD navigational envisioned scheme.
    Thanks.

  • How to create a single 'not null ' validation for all the items in a page ?

    Hi everyone ,
    how to create a single 'not null ' validation for all the items in a page ? I have many textfields . Instead of creating 'not null' validation for each item , I would like to create a a single validation control that will serve the purpose
    Thanks & Regards
    Umer

    Nice1 wrote:
    bob , as u said I have done the following :
    1) under create button , there are 9 items and for each item I have set Required to 'Yes'
    2) under delete button , there is 1 item and have set Required to 'Yes' for the item
    3) defined page validation for 9 items under 'create ' button and have set it to fire when 'create ' button clicked
    4) defined page validation for 1 item under 'delete ' button and have set it to fire when 'delete ' button clicked
    now , when I click 'create' button it even shows for the item under 'Delete ' button that it is a required itemSorry, I didn't see this note. The required template won't work, there is no way to attach it to the button.
    The best solution is as the reply a couple replies up
    Create 2 page type validations as a PL/SQL with code
    1st validation
    :P1_ITEM1 IS NOT NULL and :P1_ITEM2 IS NOT NULL ...... and :P1_ITEM9 IS NOT NULL  include all 9 items
    Set the When Button Pressed to the CREATE button
    2nd validation
    :P1_ITEM10 IS NOT NULL
    Set the When Button Pressed to the DELETE buttonI think that's going to be the easiest way to do it.

  • How to create a single report using 5 difftent reports

    Hi Experts
    how to create a single report using 5 repors in it.
    Example
    I have to create a Survey history report using
    Reports like Surevy 1
                      Surevy 2
                      Surevy 3
                      Surevy 4
                      Surevy 5
    Please suggest me.
    Santosh

    Use Analysis Process Designer (RSANWB) to feed each of the survey BEX reports to one DSO.  Assuming each of the surveys has something in common to compare.  Could also be used as a snapshot storage for the surveys in case history needs to be compared/archived. 
    Build the Direct update DSO with the survey objects.  Add needed time characteristics and/or version control objects to the key. 
    Data sources  will be the 5 surveys. 
    Add formula to hardcode version/time for history.
    Data target is the direct update DSO.

    How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?
    For example, a border: a black line with a width 1 and then a transparent line with a width 5. Further inner, it is the content pane.
    In JavaSE, there seems to have the paintComponent() method for the JFrame to realize the effect.

    Not sure why your code is doing that. I usually use an ObjectProperty<Point2D> to hold the initial coordinates of the mouse press, and set it to null on a mouse release. That seems to avoid the dragging being confused by mouse interaction with other nodes.
