Creating a Border in Lightroom

1-Select the Photo or Photos you want to stroke.
2-Go to the PRINT Module
3-in LAYOUT STYLE select SINGLE IMAGE
4-in IMAGE SETTINGS select STROKE BORDER
5-Select the Color of the Border
6-Select the Width of the Border
7-Make sure nothing else is turned on and that no watermarks, file info or text is displayed on the photo.
In PRINT JOB change the PRINT TO: from Printer to JPEG FILE
8-Press print to FILE at the bottom of the page
9-Select the Folder where you want your pictures, I suggest that you put them in the SAME FOLDER so you can find them easier.
10-Go to the folder where you placed them in LR in the LIBRARY MODULE
11-SYNCHRONIZE THE FOLDER - Your photos should appear with strokes but also white borders
12-select the first photo
13-go to the DEVELOP MODULE
14-Select CROP
15-Turn off the lock
16-bring the crop lines to just outside the strokes

This works and you can make a preset for most of the work in steps 3-8
