Looking for: software: create gallery frame and text automatically ...

<p>I am looking for a software (not an action) that will create and process batches of image files so that I end up with a nice gallery mat around the image file as well as the text I want to place around the image file on the surrounding gallery style mat.</p>

<p><strong>What I see that I like is:</strong> a nice gallery mat with text on it that identifies the studio name and/or the photographer's name or whatever ... I want to be able to specify and change text to fit my needs.</p>

<p>I'd like to have the <strong>software be able to do the above to Landscape as well as Portrait oriented image files without blinking.</strong></p>

<p>I'd like to avoid an action that needs my undivided attention <em>but would consider an action if</em> it could handle all the above without a lot of trouble.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>LR2 does something like that.</p>

<p>You can also do it in PS and write an action to batch them.</p>

<p>I should have mentioned I don't use Lightroom 2 in my workflow ... I find Capture One to be faster.</p>

<p>The action may be the way to go David, thanks for the feedback ... I just have this persistant feeling that someone here on the forum mentioned a nice little software that worked better than actions and gave more options.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>The best and easiest to use software for this is QuickMats4.<br>

It will pay for itself within a week.<br>

Fantastice, simple and no need to mess with creating stuff because it is all there.<br>

I am selling more and more larger prints by using this as a method of presentation that is fabulous.<br>

You can download a test version just do a search under the name and all the info will pop up.<br>
