karina_a Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Hi again, one more question - (promise I have done a search): What software do you use for printing numbered proof / contact sheets to help with client selection? Thanks so much, Karina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_banks2 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Epson photo quicker. Much faster than PS in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishmail_mehmet Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I simply use XP. Select all your prints in a folder. This will bring up a print wizard, then choose contact sheet. This will print all the selected images with their file names or numbers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdp Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 ***** Ishmail Mehmet , sep 19, 2006; 07:56 a.m. I simply use XP. Select all your prints in a folder. This will bring up a print wizard, then choose contact sheet. ***** Ishmail... can you explain this better? I have XP and when selecting images, never had a wizard pop up like you mention. I just tried it, and nothing happened, even tried right-click the selection to see if it was an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckry Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I use ACDSee, it has a ton of great features that I can use to customize the sheets. Way better than PS's boring one size fits all method. I can change fonts and colors and add any text I want to the header, footer, and underneath each image. I might be crazy too, but the quality of the images in ACDSee seem better too. They also don't take any time at all to create, not like watching PS have epileptic seisures for 4 hours straight.

After selecting all the shots you want, right click on them and select "Open with" then select you should see "Windows Picture and Fax viewer". Click on that and you should be in the wizard. Of course, depending on what software you have installed, YMMV. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenPapai Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 The "best" is SOP with PS CS2. (see Adobe Bridge with its Tools/Photoshop menu and Contact Sheets II selection) So, if you're already setup with CS2 (industry standard) you're good to go.

Click on that and you should be in the wizard. **** You missed a bit, one your in the Windows Picture viewer, click the print Icon, that opens the Print wizard. You just follow that through going though the options checking everything you need it to do and hit print! Voila! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
