Hi, i'm trying to create a script to sandwich pairs of images together to create new images.
Basically, I have a series of images titled like this:
test_1
test_1_add
test_2
test_2_add
test_3
test_3_add
I want photoshop to take "test_1_add", place it as a layer (with blending mode as add) on top of "test_1", and then save as a new file. Then I want it to repeat this process with "test_2", "test_3", etc. In a perfect world, this would all be automated, so that after setting up the script, all it would take is one click and then everything would be processed.
Is this doable? Please let me know where to start with making this happen. Thanks!
That type of Photoshop automation would need to be done using Photoshop scripting. Action can not use logic to pair things together. There is a Photoshop scripting forum you could look into. However, if you do not have some programming knowledge. Scripting Photoshop will be over you head above your skill set. Scripting Photoshop is not an easy task like recording actions.
Not a problem, as you can see it is a common enough request and you will likely find that some of the scripts work for you without adjustment, while others may need refining.
