When I choose Print in Paint.NET I am offered several layout options, including a 9 picture 'wallet' and 35 picture 'contact sheet'.
I want to use one of these to view several pictures together rather than wasting paper and ink, but I can't find out where to select the multiple pictures.
Lightroom 4 consistently crashes every time I attempt to print a contact sheet containing over 12 images. Any less and the task is completed without error, any more and it inevitably crashes.
My workaround has been to export the images and create large contact sheets in Photoshop CS6, but this takes twice as long. This is a daily task and is significantly disrupting my workflow.
Years ago, there was a program of routine that would plot files to a sheet resembling a photographer’s contact sheet. You would tell it which folder to use and it would print the entire folder. You could tell it how many rows and columns and it would fill up the 8.5 x 11 or 11 x 17 sheet with little images of the files.
View 2 Replies View Relatedway to to automate a workflow as follows:
1. drop or select a folder of pics (sometimes up to 200 images)
2. create a contact sheet - just like the "File > Automate > Contact Sheet II" (I make contact sheets/proofs of 2-4 images per page)
3. print all the contact sheets on 8.5x11" sheets of paper
4. close contact sheets w/o saving.
I can't seem to combine the Contact Sheet II with other actions.
Alternatively I could continue to create my contact sheets with the existing Contact Sheet II tool, then save, then drag to print window/icon - but it would be much easier to handle it one step.
I also looked for Automator actions and can't seem to nail this thing. I even considered iPhoto - it does this "standard prints" thing which works great but I need the file names in the contact sheets (bummer).

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have my photos organized into albums. I would like to print a contact sheet for each album, but would like it to include the album name. This seems like a very basic part of organizing, but it's not overly apparent how to do it. I would also like to resize the caption font on the contact sheet, too.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI bought a program called ImageBuddy just to create contact sheets. I'd like to use Contact Sheet II in CS, since you can customze everything...BUT...
This is huge...I routinely create contact sheets of 500+ images. Photoshop takes FOREVER to create them and it keeps the canvas open as it creates. By the time it's finished, my system has come to a crawl, it's a miracle it doesn't just crash.
Is there anyway to save the pages as they are created, freeing up system resources? ImageBuddy will let you set up all the parameters for a contact sheet and then create it as ONE PDF using OS-X's output options. Seems Adobe has really dropped the ball on this one?
I have only had my CS4 for three days. The first time I used it I had access to the Contact Sheet in the File>Automate list. Today it is no longer there. I rebooted the computer and it still is not there. What gives? Everything else seems ok, except it wants me to upgrade my video card, which I did before I installed CS4. My video card is an Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT.

View 16 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make up a proof sheet of photos from a wedding i recently shot for my clients, and am trying to use Contact Sheet II automate function to produce it. It makes the proof sheet just fine, however, what I am not able to do is edit the text colour or style of the caption of each photo.
For instance, i'd like my photos to be on a black background, but because the caption text is also black, it's not legible.
I've got 32 PSD files of a customers paintings that we use to make greeting cards. She just turned 100 last week and her daughter in law came in to pick some up and asked if we could make a sheet with small versions of the paintings on them with the file names so that she can remember them. She thought we only had 5. I told her we have more like 30. So the old lady doesn't know what we do and don't have here.
Since they are Photoshop files, I can't just toss em into iPhoto to create a contact sheet. I guess I could do a batch convert to JPG on all of them and then drop those into iPhoto but is there a way to do this within Photoshop? just open up all 32 PSD files and create some sort of a contact sheet with file names under each image? Maybe 6 to a page?

Why are my contact sheet printing darker than my normal print files? I am in CS4 on am Mac OS X.

I am having trouble making a "contact sheet"; one page that will display 2,4,6,8 or 12 images culled from my desktop file of images. The old Photoshop had a very easy system that allowed me to drop images into a pre-set contact sheet.

Here the error message that I get when I use the option.
I need to put together a contact sheet and I'm trying to use PS to put it together.
When I put the page together everything works fine. But it adds numbers to the file names. Like if you look at the garter snake picture you can see where it added #fdbed....I didn't put that there! I can't get rid of it either. When PS puts the file together it flattens all layers. I could turn off the file names but I need to have them there for reference.
I am producing a graduation edition with hundreds of senior photos.
All the photos are cropped the same size, grayscaled and named alphabetically.
I would like to produce a contact sheet because it puts the names underneath the photo but it also includes the file extension.
Using this method is much faster than placing individual photos on the page and re-typing names.
I am using PhotoShop CS3.
Is there a way in PhotoShop when using Contact Sheet II, to have it list a page number on the bottom of each page?
View 4 Replies View RelatedJust installed CS4 and was checking to make sure all the things I use on a regular basis is there. It seems that the Contact Sheet II has been removed. I found it up here on the download extra plug-in page but still didn't show up when I downloaded the plug-in. Thought I installed them correctly, but maybe not. Need this badly, use it for printing out thumbnails of all photo shoots.
View 18 Replies View RelatedI've a shed load of Illustrator 9 EPS files that I want to have
contact sheets of.
I thought the most obvious (and quickest) way to do this would be to go throught Photoshop's Contact Sheet command.
The problem I have is that although all the EPS files are pure vector, Photoshop somehow manages to bitmap them horrendously. I've played around with the size and resolution of the page and to open the files at but with no success.
I would like to use the contact sheet and save instead of print. I see you can use it almost like a template in the Mac version, but in the PC version all you can do is print.

I'd like to make a contactsheet.
To do so, I first have to rename my files from numbers to letters, because otherwise the photo's are at a wrong place in my contactsheet.
I make numbers like: 01, 02 ,03 etc.
When I want to batch the files to rename them with letters, in bridge or with an action in photoshop, then all the files are at another order.
What I have to do so that I can rename it easily and that the programme does what I want?
