Any ideas on how to quickly apply a ‘hairline’ border to a print. I essence a very fine line to prevent light areas of an image ‘flowing’ into the paper. There is a border option under File/Print Options (PS6) but this doesn’t appear to do what’s required.
Thanks.

What about using the pen tool to create a working path and then stroke the path using a faint grey? That should give you the light border you're looking for.

What I do,
Choose the color you want for the border (I always choose black,personal pref.) then choose Select>All.... then Edit>Stroke>one pixel....you can barely see it when your done but when I have some white on the edges of a picture I like how it holds it all together.

Thanks both as Jill says its a means of holding skies together.

I have often thought of doing that especially when I print the photos and go to trim them and can't always find the edges. :) Tricky business.

Couldn't you also set the background color to black (or whatever color you want the border to be) and then increase the canvas size by 2 (or more) pixels for both horizontal & vertical? (That would end up being 1 pixel on both sides.)
