I've used this time and time again because I keep forgetting how to make these guides. Thanks so much.
This is awesome! thank you so much for taking the time so show how to set this up. I know this will be coming in handy for years to come
This is just a wonderful tutorial. Thank you so much for showing this in a step-by-step way
Great photo, I've been using photoshop off n on for 20 years and I witnessed automation back in the day at work, a woman had the task of color correction and dust cleaning on 100s of photos... She said "doing the color balance any other way would be insane" I never had such volume to use the auto function. Till now... Thanks for the tip.
Once again I'm back again, you solved my problem. Thank You

Thank you!! Never knew a thing such as actions existed :D
you solved my biggest problem. Thank You
Brilliant thank you !
Fantastic thank you!
I tried following along with your written instructions 3 times and could not get it to function properly. Would be nice if you could just release the action.
You saved my life. Thank you so much
Glad to be of service!

Glad to be of service!
Perfect tutorial. Simple and understanding for noobs like me. Thank you.
Glad you found it useful!
What...is a keystroke? I tried following this to no avail.
A keystroke is a single press of a key on a keyboard. the Action "Cropmarks" is applied to F15. OR apply "Cropmarks" from Actions window.
Thank you very much ❤️
why so hard.. windows can do it trought adobe acrobat PDF reader pro - print - adobe PDF - set show cut options .. safe as pdf.. easy... is any option for macos in 2023?
Thank you
Can someone help me. Which button did you press? What is a "type key stroke" on a Mac?
What does it mean to type the key stroke? I don't get it haha :D
if not, just click on the Action "Cropmarks" from the Actions window. it works.
WOW! Great video tutorial! So why can't Photoshop just automatically come with this feature and make our lives easier?
Thats is great Thanks. How would increase border so 5cm or 10cm on each side ??
duh. it works on all
@@mikereed8551 Glad you figured it out!
Great video, but I cant get the photo to add bleed either. I have followed your steps four times and the image wont resize to the bleed line. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I think I figured it out, photoshop doesn't resize the image to a larger size if the proportion isn't right and also you need to unlock the background layer.
but how to make quick step like in Adobe Illustrator?
I'm trying to have a 3mm margin (not bleed as I don't want to chop it off)...and then have crop marks so when I cut, the 3mm margin is still there. Can't work it out at all :(
So you want bleed, but you don't want bleed? I'm not sure I understand!
I did everything step by step exactly like you do but my image doesn't have bleed, it is only inside of green rectangle. Any idea what ist wrong? Thanks!
Are you sure you're expanding the canvas? That's where you get your bleed from. Check it out at 2.52
@@2MinutePhotoshop yes I did it right but it expands canvas with white background. Could you please write your email and I will send you screenshot of action panel and of image and how it acts.
@@dominikmellen Same thing is happening for me
Hard and don't work here. Where is key stroke?
Hi, nice video, but I did the process 3 times and each time, the action dont add the bleed. The picture stay in the green rectangle... On vertical photo, the bleed is added on the upper and bottom of the photo, (not in the left and right) ; on horizontal photo, the action add bleed only on the right and left. Do you have a solution? thanks
You must have got one off the settings wrong. Does each step work while you’re recording the action?
@@2MinutePhotoshop I will do the process again... will see!
@@2MinutePhotoshop same... the crops, the green and red lines are there, but the action didn't add the bleed.
When you recorded the action did the canvas get bigger?
@@2MinutePhotoshop yes, everything seem to be working fine... On vertical photo, the bleed is added on the upper and bottom of the photo, (not in the left and right) ; on horizontal photo, the action add bleed only on the right and left
When I change the canvas size to add the 6mm, my green line disappears! I dont know what to do
I worked out what was wrong - when I created a new document, I had 'artboards' selected beside the orientation option. I had to unselect this for this tutorial to work :-)
@@meadhbhcorrigan3549 Glad you got it sorted out!
When I try to run it, the image only extends to the green outline, not the red one. please help
I think you must have missed out a step!
My canvas didn’t expand
After 3 years PS has changed too much and this tutorial doesn't work anymore unfortunately
How do I type F15 on a mac? I can't seem to find it even on the touch bar
F15 is just an example. You can use any of the Function keys you like. There's no separate row of Function keys on a MacBook, but hold the Fn key and you should see them.
I followed all of the steps but when I type the key stroke, nothing happens!!
Are you sure you set up the keystroke correctly? Check if you had (or needed to have) a modifier key held down. Also, bear in mind that you may be interfering with other system-wide shortcuts.
@@2MinutePhotoshop Oh ok, I will try again, thank you for the advice!
@@minimitchell4749 Hope it works this time. If not, you can always trigger the Action by a button rather than the keystroke.
to type what? key stroke?
You can choose your own keystroke to trigger the Action.
My God there has to be an easier way? This is so convoluted?
You only have to do it once!
Very lenghty
