I need to add text to a batch of ~200 photos. This text has to be on a white strip that extends 1/2" at the bottom of each photo, and must be exactly positioned, as the photos are to be used in a computer/DVD slide show and any mispositioning of the text would show up in the transitions.
Using CS I created an Action that extends the canvas size, in white, an extra 1/2" positioned at the bottom of the print. So far so good. As part of the same action, I then created a text box on the white strip, with the text properties set to Courier, Bold, 20Pts, Black. The problem is that everytime I run the action on a print, the text properties revert to Courier, Normal, 12Pts, and Grey, not the ones I recorded. I’ve even reset the text properties as part of the action and it still reverts to the default. What am I doing wrong, please?
