Sorry – this may have been addressed centuries ago, but I’m still very new here. Is there a plugin, a filter, or a procedure by which I can simulate a ragged/torn paper edge (and control its placement precisely)? Illustrator has a "torn edge" effect, which does nothing like what its name infers. Any suggestions? Thanks all…

look here for a nifty viewer like irfanview, which also offers a number of frames:
