Need A Photoshop CS Action To Open A Specific File / MAC ________________________________________________________

I’m trying to simplify a process I do on certain digital cam files, putting a composite of several on an already-set-up template page.

How can I create an action in Photoshop CS that will quickly open the same template file to work on? It will be the same file over and over which will be opened.

Is this possible without using scripting / Applescript?

THANKS!

From what you describe, it couldn’t be much easier…

Open your manual to the section on recording actions. Start recording, open the file, and stop recording. Name your action. Done.

As long as you don’t move the file to a new folder or over-write it so it isn’t a clean slate any more, the action should work just fine.

Is there more to this problem than just opening the template file?
