01 / Context

### The challenge

Preparing ecommerce images involved repeated adjustments to dimensions, aspect ratio, background and file organization.

A store may require all product photographs to occupy the same visual area even when their source files have different dimensions. This consistency involves aspect ratio, margins, color profile, identification and destination folders, in addition to simply choosing an image width.

The Exportar Cinza project was created for Foto5, Weliton Souza's own photography operation. It collects those decisions in a JSX script, with a defined output of 1000 × 1333 pixels and a specific rule for the margins added around an image.

02 / Step by step

### How the workflow works

- 01 

#### Collect and identify

Open documents are collected and naturally sorted. The operator confirms processing and can enter authorship details. Date and sequence-based identification keep the delivered files organized.

- 02 

#### Prepare a duplicate

Each image is duplicated before transformation and converted to RGB. The script applies metadata to the duplicate, separating processing from the original file already saved on disk.

- 03 

#### Adjust the canvas

When the aspect ratio is equivalent within a two-pixel tolerance, the image is resized directly to the final dimensions. Other proportions are fitted and centered, with new margins filled in #E5E5E5.

- 04 

#### Save and check

The JPEG is saved in the Cinza folder with an embedded color profile. The routine checks that the file was created. If processing fails, it records the problem and leaves the original open for review.

03 / Implementation

### The work

A JSX script exports at 1000 × 1333 pixels, fits the image and fills newly added margins with gray when needed.

- 1000 × 1333-pixel JPEG output
- New margins in #E5E5E5 gray
- Sequential naming and error summary

#### A clearly defined visual rule

The gray margin organizes the additional space around the photograph. It does not automatically isolate the product or replace the background already present in the image. This distinction helps define the expected source material.

An automation can use other dimensions, backgrounds, suffixes or folder structures. The decision depends on where the photographs will be used and how the operation approves samples before processing a complete batch.

#### Per-file error handling

A problem with one photograph should not remove the context of the others. The routine separates processing for each document, collects encountered failures and displays a summary with the number of exported images.

This gives the operator a starting point for reviewing the batch. A custom script delivery should combine predictable behavior, understandable messages and a realistic sample for visual acceptance.

Inside the logic

### Example of configurable margins

Adapted example showing workflow parameters. It is not the full routine and has not been independently tested in Photoshop.

jsx ADAPTED EXAMPLE 


```
var delivery = {
    width: 1000,
    height: 1333,
    folder: "Cinza",
    marginRGB: [229, 229, 229]
};
// Margins use the operation's chosen color.
// Transformation is applied to a duplicate.
// The original must be saved before the batch.
```


04 / Delivery

### Delivery and context

The script includes duplicate-based processing and error handling. Visual review in Photoshop remains part of delivery validation.

#### Deployment considerations

- Gray is applied to newly added margins; background removal is outside this routine.
- Documents must be saved before the batch. Closing after success does not save earlier pending edits.

### Frequently asked questions

Does the script handle different photo aspect ratios?

The workflow has a fitting rule for different proportions and a tolerance for images close to the target ratio. Representative samples should be used to approve the result.

Can another stage of my studio workflow be automated?

Yes. Exporting, naming, folders, metadata and delivery variations can be included in a custom quote. The first step is to describe the inputs and the expected output.
