Photoshop Elements :: How To Print 2 5X7s On One Sheet Of 8.5X11
Feb 11, 2014
I want to print one image as 2 5X7s on one sheet of 8.5X11 paper. In previous versions I could do this easily. Not so anymore. Here is my scenario. I use Windows 8 64 bit version 6.2 with Photoshop Elements 11.0. I use an Epson Stylus Photo 1400 and its print software.
I choose : File Print enter, Orientation Portrait enter, More Options-Border Thickness .118" enter, Change Settings-Advanced Settings-Premium Photo Paper Glossy_OK enter, Select Print Size 5X7 enter, Position-Uncheck Center-Top=0 enter. The image on the screen has shifted to the top with a .118 border and has crop marks on the other three sides. I print my picture, turn the sheet around and repeat the process. I have 2 5X7s of the same image on the sheet of paper. However, this version does not like to do this. It works sometimes, and sometimes not. I am wasting too much paper and ink trying to figure it out. The image on the screen always looks correct, showing a 5X7. The image that prints may be a 5.75"X5" or may be a 6"X5". The border at the top chages from .118" to .80"
I tried using Picture Package as suggested before. It will not set up to print only one picture, and does not allow me to set my borders. The image came out as a borderless 5X7.
My issue is this: While trying to print or pdf a drawing in (lets say 8.5x11) layout view, the edges get cut off. It looks as though the template I copied is too large to be printed in full. If this were the case, wouldn't it be the same even if I tried printing in extents? It still does the same thing printing in extents.
I am trying to print 2 5x7 pics on one sheet of 8.5x11 paper. On the screen everything looks fine. I rotate the image, then uncenter the image to the top edge. I print the picture once, put the sheet back in turned 180 degrees, then print again. In previous versions this worked fine. Now, in version 11, it does not want to work. I have tried changing the size settings to custom 5x7. It still does not work. The image comes out 5" horizontally including a 1/4" border. Vertically, it comes out 5", no border. I am wasting a lot of paper trying to figure out where the problem is to no avail.
I am trying to print 4 photos on a single 5x7 photo sheet. Print Package seems to be totally unusable. I select 3 photos and can't position them on the screen. I select a 4th photo and it positions it on a 2nd sheet. I can't resize a photo by clicking the image and adjusting the size (like most other windows packages).
If I move a photo it seems to change format from landscape to portrait. I set Printer settings to 5x7 Glossy but whatever option I chose in 'Select a Layout' gives me a message saying The layout selected is larger than paper size - eventhough they're both set to 5x7.
If I select a photo and try and move it, it just duplicates the image somewhere else on the print page - and doesn't let me delete it or undo. I have selected 5x7 paper size and Layout 5x7 (4) but the review screen still doesn't show 4 photos positioned logically.
This task should take 5 minutes - I am now quitting after nearly 2 hours - which included reading many community issues of people trying to do this simple task and clearly having the same problems I have.
How to print a sheet of pictures 2x3.5 (business card size). I have reduced the size of the picture but I can't figure out how to fill a sheet with this image and print it.
I 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.
We just started in 2014 last week. When we batch plot to PDF using the DWG to PDF driver we get multi-page files no matter which is selected in the Publish Options. Any way to allow single sheet PDF creation?
Why when I print 8.5x11 to PNG at 300dpi (paper size 2550x3300) the actual image dim’s are 34.38”x26.56”? If I print with the paper size at 612x792 (72dpi) the image will be 8.5x11 but look like poop.
how can I print 8.5x11 to PNG at 300dpi and the image dim's be 8.5x11?
I want to print multiple pictures (not the same one) onto one sheet of 8x11. What I have found it's not the easy thing to do. Should I make the pictures the size I want and use a different program to print.
i want to print some customsized photos to a sheet of photo paper. Will PS CS4 do this? If so how? It appears that PS elements 10 will do trhis but i don't want to buy iy if PS4 will do the job.
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).
I'm using a Macinotsh G5 2GHz DP, 2GB RAM, OSX.4.2, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Epson 4000 Pro.
I have trial version of Elements 11; Also have full version, but have not installed yet, as I wanted to wait until I completed current project. I created/edited an album of wedding photos in the Organizer. I tried to upload album to Shutterfly to make an archival DVD and also make a photo book in Shutterfly. The photos uploaded individually to the Shutterfly print page to print individually, but the album will not upload to My Pictures, it shows the album name, but it is empty. How do I get the photos to upload?? Shutterfly was not sure how.
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.
I'm using Autocad LT2012 and I have a problem with the "print to PDF" from the Sheet Set Manager.
The layouts are all set to "publish to a plotter" with the Layout option (not Window, Extent, etc.).vWhen I send the print to the plotter from the SSM, they print fine. If I send them to PDF, they are printed slightly off and one side is cut out.
I have tried on one of the layouts to change the plotting device from our plotter to "DWG to PDF" and indeed the drawing results to be slightly off, because the plotting area shifts. So, I guess this is the problem.
I have checked many forums and different solutions. One solution is to use Window or Extent as plotting area with Centred option on, so to avoid any cut due to shifts of the layout.
I have two questions:
1. Is there any way to work around this problem keeping the Layout plotting area option? 2. If there is not, how can I now change more than fifty layouts, that are now set on Layout, to Extent or Window, without having to go through them all one by one? (I tried the override option, but it really doesn't work as layouts are printed with different ctb and it keeps printing off, anyway)
We have experienced this problem with multiple versions of Revit. When we plot to PDF (bluebeam driver), it will sometimes not create the final sheet that was checked in the list of sheets to print in the print dialog box.
When I print a single sheet to PDF I have no issues. However, when I try to use the publish command I get this error
ERROR: The current device does not support the requested media size.
I'm using the same cutePDFwriter and page layout as I did with the single sheet. Also my 2 co-workers are using the same settings for what I can tell, and have no problems.
Any way to print sheets from AutoCAD onto one sheet of paper, side-by-side?
The reason this came up is because yesterday I printed a half size set on our new plotter using twice the paper I needed. Each sheet printed on half of a 36”x12” sheet of paper (print is 18”x12”). I was throwing away 18” per print. What would be awesome is to be able to get another print onto that wasted 18”.
how to get two (or more) prints on one sheet of paper?
I am trying to resize an A4 immage so that it will print on 4 A4 sheets, making it an A3. I have tried but I did'nt manage to do it, it resized it back to A4.
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.
My work entails regenerating new drawings from aging specification drawings and figures. Very little actual CAD, more hand-tracing JPGs than anything. I'm new to AutoCAD LT and haven't used most of its features. But the one feature I really need right now is to be able to print a black box on a sheet of paper.
As in, a 2-D closed polygon with a solid black fill. Unfortunately, AutoCAD LT doesn't think I should be allowed to print a black box on a sheet of paper.
I've tried assigning the color to the box using properties. I've tried defining layers and moving the box to the "black" layer (funny that "black" isn't a defined color in AutoCAD...that's way cool...). I've tried various settings in the Plotter setup screen.
I have a color plot table selected and I'm trying to print to .PDF. I work strictly out of the model view and do a lot of print previews. What am I, or have I, done, or not done, that I'm supposed to be doing, to print the box?
In our company we currently model using coloured lines rather than the Revit desired black/white but we are more and more being asked to print the odd view on a sheet with coloured lines or a coloured 3d view.
As some of us have grown up on th edrawing board through to Revit we are so used to the coloured lines and feel that it gives the drawing depth and is so much easier to understand.
I have been trying every way to keep the coloured linies but using view templates. filters and phasing to enable me to change views quickly from coloured to black and then back but there is no easy quick transition especially as we can't use these to change standard linetypes.
Why Autodesk have made this such a difficult issue within revit... Now we can model in 3D, create schedules automatic yet Autocad is much better for plotting...
I've been having a weird issue that certain layers of a CAD drawing won’t print if that sheet is open, but it will print perfectly if another sheet is open. Using AutoCAD 2011 SP2 on a Windows 7 64bit PC with 8GB of memory and an I7 processor.
