well, resizing can be done with several tools like imagemagick but that's not what you actually want. the photolab will change the DPI of whatever you give it to 10x15 or whatever you ask. what you are looking for is a way to enlarge the canvas, without touching the graphic, by adding an edge of a fixed size on right and bottom, and adding some text in the new space. this can be done with GD as far as I know, scriptable from perl, php, python and many others. it can probably be done from scripted GIMP pretty easely if you knew how to do that (I never looked) it should also be possible via scripting in Photoshop, though not a FOSS solution. in any case it's easier to repeat the same operation on all images, it's less conveniant to do it with a different text for each image. that said, I believe the best way to do it for 12 images is by hand (load image, set bacground to white, resize canvas, add text, save as JPG, repeat.) Scripting can be nice but worth the effort only for a few dozen more pictures. -- Victoria's Secret Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
