2. Image Options

Image options

Apply sharpening before exporting images, to reduce the effects of scaling the image.

  • Automatic image scaling now allows manual adjustment, to crop part of the image.
  • Flip the image horizontally or vertically.
  • Add a drop shadow around the image.

3. Titles, Copyright & Metadata

Text field details

Add captions to your photos, customize the font and placement attributes. IPTC fields can be used to quickly add titles to the exported photo. A text based copyright notice can be automatically added, as well as the exposure details from the EXIF metadata.

Text can now be placed anywhere on the photo.

4. Presets

Border settings can be saved as a preset, so they can be quickly applied to another photo. A Preset can be selected to be used as the default settings on start up. A Preset can now be updated, just apply the Preset, make the adjustments you want, then save it.

5. Watermark

Add an image as a watermark to the export images. The watermark image can be scaled to fit the desired output size and it's opacity adjusted to blend the watermark with the photo. Any PSD, PNG, or TIFF file can be used as a watermark, images with a transparent background usually work best.

6. Output

Output Options Screen

Export images as JPEG, PNG or TIFF files, including support for ColorSync profiles. Include the EXIF and IPTC metadata, including keywords, in the exported files. BorderFX has convenient output presets for exporting photos which you can fully customize. You can specify the output dimension in either Pixels, Inches or Millimeters, and now includes the dots per inch (dpi) to use for the exported file. The 'Fit Within' option can be used to specify a maximum dimension the image is to fit within while maintaining the original aspect ratio.
