Introduction

This was my first script for Photoshop CS. Like the original, it automates the process of adding a signature/watermark to an image. However, there are several improvements:

• There is a separate script for entering settings with an improved interface so that multiple versions of the script aren't required just to have different signature/watermark settings. It now uses the new UI.
• The calculation of text position has changed, so the dimensions of the image are irrelevant. The script should work with any size image.
• Six options are available for text position.
• The new interface also means that it's not necessary to edit the script to make changes.
• Multiple sets of settings can be saved.

If you use the script, let me know how you get on and please e-mail any requests or suggestions for improvements.

Update: This script was originally available as "Signature CS". This has been amalgamated into The Variations Suite. A enhanced version of the script is now available as donation-ware. More details about the Plus version can be found on this page.

Installation

Once you have downloaded and unzipped the script files "VS-Sig-Int.js" (previously called "signature-dialog.js") and "VS-Sig-Batch.js" (previously called "signature-cs.js"), copy them to the Adobe Photoshop scripts folder:

<drive>:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Presets\Scripts

Note: you do not have to save the scripts in this folder, but if you don't, you will need to browse to the custom location each time you run the scripts.

Settings Files

The default file is c:\signature-settings.txt. This file will be automatically created by the settings-dialog script as this is the file used by VS-Sig-Batch (signature-cs). You can create multiple settings files, however, you must load and save the custom settings so that signature-settings.txt is updated with the settings you want to use for any given image when running VS-Sig-Batch (signature-cs).
