Michelle wrote in with a question about Photoshop Elements...
I was wondering how to print white borders on 4x6 photos in PSE. I see the option to print borders when I select print, but they never come out even no matter what # I choose.
Thanks,
Michelle
It seems there's a bug with printing borders on your images. Photoshop Elements add them to outside of your image, so if you print on 4x6 paper, they don't appear.
How to print a border on your image
For those not in the know, you can set the borders by going to File, Print, then clicking on More options
I can see the borders if I choose a bigger paper size, but not for 4x6 paper. I can understand you would want to easily print on 4x6 without cropping your photo from a larger sheet!
Add a border to your image
To work around this issue:
- Open your image
- Crop your photo to 3.75x4.75 (for a 1/4 in border)
- Go to image, resize, Canvas size
- Set it to 4x6in with a white canvas extension colour
- Print away!

I hope this helps you.
