I wrote a Photoshop script for generating mirrored gallery wraps with 2" borders and I'm making it available free of charge for anyone that is interested.

I've tested it on Photoshop CS5 on a Mac. Let me know if you find any problems.

Thanks for the script! Tried it and it worked great. I usually just make a 1 1/2" wrap but I see no reason not to just go with your 2" size -- probably easier for whomever does the stretching. I like the fact that you leave the original as a selection so I can make a duplicate of the original then work on the wrap with blur/curves easily. I do a lot of wraps, almost 100% of all my canvas printing and I'll be saving lots of time with your script doing the "busy work". Well done!

Thanks!
If you want a 1.5" wrap, you can use a text editor and change the:
var wrapSize = 2;
on line 35 to:
var wrapSize = 1.5;
and it will then do 1.5" wraps. If you regularly do different sized wraps, it might make sense to have multiple copies of the script each with the different sizes.

I did as you suggested and now I have 2 useful scripts. Thanks!

Does anyone know if it works on CS4?

I haven't tried it, but I don't see why it wouldn't. Give it a try and see.

I have been using this great script for over a year and it has been a great time saver. Now, I am considering moving to CS 6 and I am wondering if it works properly with the latest release of PhotoShop. Has anybody tried it with CS 6 on the Mac?

thanks very much, Martin

Doesn't seem to work in CS6 (windows) I'm getting error 1302 no such element
-> copyRef = ap. document.( add. w h doc ref resolution, Mirror
Can't get it to work in CS5 either on windows.

It works fine for me on both CS5 & CS6 under Win 7 64bit.

Make sure your image has a colour profile. There is a bug where it doesn't work on unmanaged images. I'll fix that soon.

Well done Martin, I stand corrected, it works fine now I used an image with a profile.... Doh! ;D
And many thanks for sharing.

You could try my 1.5" and 2" Gallery wrap actions (http://www.photography.info/GalleryWraps.atn) if you wish - they work on any version of PS and on any open image file. If you want to change the wrap size, just open up the action from the PS action palette and double click on both the canvas size commands and type in whatever size you want - just remember that for a 2.5" all-round wrap size for instance, you would need to change the number to 5" for both canvas size commands, to get the 2.5" you want on all sides, in fact this action will work on any wrap size you could ever want, all the way up to the full size of the image.
Just right click on the link above and save the file to your hard disk.
Hope these work for you.

Thank you Dave I'll give it a try,

Thank you :-) Martin and Dave.
I tried the actions and they work perfect.
Do you even have Photoshop actions to create a digital Proof of the Image before Print. So that they can be emailed to visualise the edges and photo.
Probably, for following with border of size 1.5, 2 inches:
1. wrap with stretched image
2. Black border
3. wrap with mirrored image
