What's New in Adobe Express | September 2026: Transparent Video, Borders, and Event Invitations
This month, we're introducing a new way to help your designs stand out, along with a couple of updates that make it easier to create dynamic content and manage events without leaving Adobe Express.
Let's take a look!
Add Borders to Images, Shapes, and Elements
Sometimes it's the smallest design details that make the biggest impact. That's why we're excited to introduce Borders in Adobe Express.
You can now add customizable borders to images and shapes directly in the editor, making it easier to draw attention to key content, create visual hierarchy, or add a little extra personality to your designs. Choose from styles like Solid, Bubble, Floral, Neon, and Asphalt, then adjust the color and thickness to match your creative vision.
| What you can do | Why you'll love it |
|---|---|
| Add borders in a click | Instantly frame photos, graphics, and design elements. |
| Customize color and thickness | Match your brand, campaign, or design aesthetic. |
| Explore multiple styles | Try everything from clean and minimal to bold and playful. |
| Highlight cutout subjects | Help key subjects stand out within your design. |
| Preview changes live | See updates in real time while you design. |
💡 Pro tip: Want the border to follow your subject instead of the rectangular edge of your image? Remove the background first, then apply a border to trace the cutout. Learn more here!
Everything Else That Shipped
| What’s new | What does it do? | Why you’ll care |
|---|---|---|
 | Import transparent videos encoded with ProRes 4444, then layer them over designs as motion graphics, overlays, animated elements, or effects. | Build polished, layered compositions without a green screen or manual background removal. |
 | Add guest email addresses while creating an event, send branded invitations, and automatically share RSVP confirmations and event updates. FYI: Create an Event is not available to all regions...yet! Coming to EU soon! | Design, invite, communicate, and track responses without switching between tools. |
