Re: Trying to align two images side by side, hopefully in a way so I can batch proces


Hi all.


hawkeye - I've been try again today to apply what you done with the green and red blocks using the variables. While I have made progress and now seeing actions when I apply data, the position of the layer with variable (cover in this case) does not line up against the logo layer, instead it's positioned against the left edge of the canvas, covering up the logo completely.


Paul MR - A script sounds like just the trick! I'll try and answer your questions as best I can, but if they are wrong or if you need any other details, please let me know.


1) What is the format of the imput files (jpg,png ???)

jpg


2) Are file1 and file2 in the same folder or in different folders?

File 1 (logo) can easily be in any folder it needs to be in. File2 (covers) are all in the same folder.


3) What is the nameing convention of both files?

Not sure what this means, but I'll give example of file names...

Logo = Logo-Game-89x600.jpg

Cover = 4X4-Evo-2-Xbox-.jpg


4) Does the output files need to be flattened?

Not sure of the benefit or disadvantages this would have? The output file needs to be a new file so that the original cover remains.


5) What file format should the output files be?

Save for web jpg, quality 83, all check boxes unchecked.


6) Where should the output files be saved, is it relative to the input file location?

In a completely separate folder.


What is our favorite program/app? (Hint - it begins and ends with the letter P)
