How to Add White Padding Around Your Subject?
When working with previously trimmed images and intending to resize them using the "Trim to Subject" operation, it's essential to introduce white padding.
In certain instances, lacking sufficient padding around the subject may pose a challenge for our AI to accurately distinguish between the subject and the background.
Therefore, this step serves as a crucial preprocessing step before using the Trim feature.
Follow these steps to incorporate white padding into your images:
Begin by creating a new "Auto Resize & Align" automation.
Upload your images. (Note: Test the process with a few sample images first).
In the "Choose Background" step, select "Keep Original Background".
In the "Resize to Margins" step, ensure that the "Resize to Margins" option is turned OFF.
Navigate to the "Choose Shadow Settings" step and confirm that the drop shadow option is not selected.
In the "Choose Crop Size" step, either select or add a new output size larger than the original image dimensions (Note: The output image cannot exceed 6000 * 6000 pixels).
Turn OFF the AI upscale option located at the bottom.
Proceed to the "Review Settings" step, ensuring your settings resemble the following. Note: Your output size may differ.
Click on the "Start Crop" button to initiate the image processing.
Review Settings Example:
Note: Clicking the "Skip to the End" button will apply default settings. Avoid skipping to the end if you intend to add white paddings.
By following the above steps, you'll successfully add white padding to your image. Now, download this results and upload them in another "Auto Resize & Align" automation that you are using to perform the Trim to Subject operation.
