thanks for all your help up to now, but I DO have some additional questions pertaining to the last script:

since my customer has already sent me a template to letter the comic to, is it possible to not make a NEW document but USE the existing document (3 layers, bottom layer is .tifs, two--page layout, justification borders etc.) and just create the .tif pages based on this document?
Or, can I somehow import the template my customer has sent me into the generated document? Would probably be easier?!

Also, can one add a "smart" functionality so that the script will automatically check whether a .tif is horizontal ("wider than high"?) or vertical ("higher than wide") and then ROTATE the tif accordingly, so it fits into the page correctly...?
