Hi Peter Thank you for testing the process. Unfortunately I still cannot save a bordered jpeg image from Preview. No difference between exporting and saving (or both).
By using the Photos app edit and markup function I could create, save, and export a jpeg file with a border, so I could complete my little project. Using Markup in Preview I can insert shapes, text and whatever - and simply save the file. The markup is retained when the file is re-opened. It is just the Borders feature that doesn’t save. I tested it on three Macs - my normal 2019 5K iMac and a 2014 Mac Mini (both with Mojave) and a 2009 iMac with High Sierra. The 2009 iMac displayed another problem with the autosave function, giving me another job for my spare time. That is, after I clean up a collection of test files littering Photos and desktop. > On 30 Sep 2019, at 9:18 am, Peter Hinchliffe <hinch...@multiline.com.au> > wrote: > > > >> On 29 Sep 2019, at 11:51 am, Alan Smith <sma...@iinet.net.au >> <mailto:sma...@iinet.net.au>> wrote: >> >> Hello all >> >> I used the Markup tool in Preview to create a contrast border on a photo. >> >> I save the JPG file but the border has disappeared when the file is reopened. >> >> Any solution? >> >> Cheers >> Alan >> > > I just tried it here Alan.
