Hi, I have a database with more than 100 text-entries (and they keep changing) and I would like to generate buttones from an existing empty jpg-button with the texts printed centered on them and named the files according to the text-entries. How can I e.g. import lines from a text-file and print each line on the button-template and save it under the according name? I know something about ps-batch-programming but not how to handle the text-issue. I have found quite a lot buttonmaker-tools or photoshop tutorials, but not with this functionality. If not possible in photoshop I would be very interested in a free windows tool for the same functionality. (Printing text from a list onto a graphical button template and name the resulting image-files accordingly) Any help is highly appreciated Thank You :-) Adrian
