Error 4 in Phtoshop jsx script

[Dariusz360787364bh9]

Hi all,

I've tried to write a script to process 800 high resolution files that I have - I need to resize them to smaller dimensions, place another image on top of them and save with a new filename. With below script it fails with Error 4 on Line 2. Adobe Photoshop has full permission to folders on my device.

// Define the folder containing the files
var folderPath = "/Users/drcs/Desktop/Circuits/To print/Cropped_lowres/tracks/”;

// Define the path to the image to be placed on top
var overlayImagePath = "/Users/drcs/Desktop/Circuits/To print/Cropped_lowres/tracks/frame.png”;

// Open all files in the folder
var files = Folder(folderPath).getFiles(„*.png”); // Adjust the file extension if needed

// Open the overlay image
var overlayFile = new File(overlayImagePath);
var overlayDoc = app.open(overlayFile);

// Loop through each file
for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
    var file = files[i];
    
    // Open the file
    var doc = app.open(file);
    
    // Duplicate the overlay image
    var overlayLayer = overlayDoc.artLayers[0];
    overlayLayer.duplicate(doc, ElementPlacement.PLACEATBEGINNING);
    
    // Close the overlay document without saving changes
    overlayDoc.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
        
    // Resize the image
    doc.resizeImage(2480, 3543);
    
    // Save the modified image under a new filename
    var fileName = file.name.slice(0, -4); // Remove the file extension (.png)
    var newFileName = fileName + „_framed.png”; // Append "_resized" to the original filename
    var newFile = new File(folderPath + newFileName); // Construct the new file path
    
    doc.saveAs(newFile);
    
    // Close the document
    doc.close();
}

Any chance that you can help with this one guys?
