Hello everyone. I have been struggling for a few days with a problem when creating a script. I want to create a script that will add a bleed to my work on each side and fill it with a mirror image of the design. I have found the perfect solution which unfortunately does not work properly. The script adds the mirroring in the top left corner instead of deploying it near the edges of each page. Is anyone able to help me and fix this?

Is your image in a group? Ungroup it and try the script. Experiment with the bleed size. I have tested and the script does not work correctly if the image is in a group or if I enter large numbers.
