Help please.

I am a relatively new Photoshop (7) user. I'd like to print several full-size
images . . . misc. combinations of 3X5, 4X6,, 4X7, etc. on a single sheet of
8X11 photo paper.

What is the best way to economically print the photos using PS or 3rd party
software? (Contact Sheet in PS works fine but changes the sizes of the images
to fit the page . . . convenient for proofs, but not what I want in this case).

Thanks for your help,

John Moore

Use Picture Package in PS 7, or do your own layout on a template sheet using
PS7, or use Qimage (my preference by far), or use ACDSee Photo Slate.

'ArcSoft PhotoPrinter' works real well for me. I got it when it was
freeware, but I see now that it's for sale at $39.99. It's quite versatile.

In PS you can create a new sheet at A4 size then drag your images onto the
sheet resize them with TRANSFORM and then just print the single sheet.

I considered doing that, but I have so many photos to print (never got around to
it before) that it would be good if there was a program that just let you choose
the images one by one a specify a size and have it fit them onto the paper in
the most efficient manner.

There is. It's called Qimage.

When you buy a Canon i960 printer they bundle software called
Easy Photo-Print with it. It allows you to print various
photo sizes on 8 1/2 X ll paper. Apparently the same
software can also be downloaded.

http://www.canon-asia.com/downloads/photoprintplus.html

The software is easy to use. You might want to download
it and see what you think.

Thanks to all for many good suggestions.

I thought I'd d'load it for comparison to ArcSoft, but the Canon utility
only works with compatible printers.
