Can Bridge output a contact sheet from nested folders?

Can Bridge create a contact sheet of all images I have in a series of nested folders? Seems like there's a simple option missing to 'include all subfolders' option so I can maintain my folder structure for my file organization, but be able to get a grid of thumbnails of everything together... or consequently be able to create a contact sheet folder by folder automagically where each folder represents a new page in the pdf, allowing the option to insert the folder name as part of the header....
anyone have suggestions? Am I missing something here....?

Each folder a new page can only be done manual or maybe if you could use ore write a very complicated script for this. You have to specify the columns and rows and therefore the amount of photo's on one sheet.
As Curt pointed you already to the 'flat view' option this is to get all content of one main folder (but according to content amount and Output settings this may mean a lot of pages...
You have two other options:
1- Select each folder and create a contact sheet while giving it a proper name. When finished combine all the PDF files in to one large PDF file. You can do so in Acrobat Pro but if you Google on 'merge PDF in one File' there will be a lot of other free options to do so.
2- Use a proper batch rename for the files to make each name unique. If you already have done so you could choose to add a number in front of the name to keep the natural sort order in the folder. You can use Batch rename for this under the menu tool and choose the option you like. Be aware that this renaming can't be undone in an easy way so if you want it just for this occasion first make a back up and then rename the files.

Can I print a contact sheet from Bridge?

Does anyone know how I print a contact sheeet in Bridge?

You can't use Bridge for printing at all, it has no option for it. You can create a PDF contact sheet in Bridge using the Output Module (separate download in Bridge CC) but this PDF needs to be opened in another application like Acrobat, Pro, Acrobat Reader or other that can manage PDF to give a print command.

Contact Sheets from Multiple Folders: Can it be done?

CS3 Photoshop had a function under Automate, that allowed you to make contact sheets of images within a specific folder and include subfolders within that.
Im not seeing that in CS4.
Im not seeing it in Bridge CS4 either.
Is it still possible?
And how if it is?

This was discussed in a thread just a few threads down from yours:

Printing contact sheet from iPhoto

How can I print a contact sheet from iPhoto that retains the order of photos in my album?
I've placed the photos of which I want to make a contact sheet in their own album. I've organized them according to how I'd like them to print. However, when I go to print/contact sheet/custom to set the number of images per page and hit the print button, the photos are reorganized according the the main photo folder into which the images were originally imported - that is to say, by date order.

My printer does support landscape and portrait printing. It is the latest version of iPhoto 9.5.3 that only offers a minimal choice of printer, paper size and paper type. There are no formatting options available other than "Fit, Fill, Custom, 20x25cm, 13x18cm, 10x15cm and contact sheet". Another example of Appple degrading software to make it iOS compatible!
Perhaps Apple should be reading what their customers are complaining about and do something to restore the quality of their downgraded software.

I have several issues that I hope you can help me out with. I am a professional photographer with a Mac with OS X 10.9.4:
- I can only make ONE contact sheet in CS6 (from AUTOMATE) from pictures indicated in Bridge. If I want to make another contact sheet I need to shut down and restart CS6.
- Camera RAW: if I change any setting in Camera RAW (except exposure), having first optimized the exposure, the exposure will automatically return to zero. Sometimes when I've set exposure and cropped the picture in Camera RAW Plug-In, the effects are lost just by opening the picture in CS6.
- Sometimes if I crop a picture in Camera RAW, it may be impossible to open it again from Bridge!
- I cannot do lens corrections in Camera RAW, at all. The Camera RAW comment is that "it cannot load the correct lens type". Why?

Are you writing that when you select a large number of images in the bridge like a hundred thumbnails when you then use Bridge menu Tools>Photoshop>Contact Sheet II that Photoshop only produces a single contact sheet for the first few thumbnails and fails to produce additional contact sheets for the other selected thumbnails? Photoshop contact sheet II script should create as many contact sheet as needed for the numbers of thumbnails selected. Perhaps the script is hung or you have exhausted your machine resources.
ACR Crop tool does not crop the RAW file it records crop settings to be used during the conversion process. Camera RAW DATA is not altered. The only changes made to RAW Files is ACR Metadata may be added. Anything you do in ACR can be un-done in ACR. If you can not open a RAW File in ACR the Files is either corrupt or from a new camera ACR does not support yet. ACR should not corrupt RAW files.
If you do not have a lens profile for ACR I think you should still be able to do lens correction manually in ACR.
Some of what you write I don't follow could you post some screen captures of your problems often a picture helps.

Program error when Making Contact Sheet from Bridge

I had been making contact sheet from the bridge using CS3 with no problem till a week ago when after completing the contact sheet, I get an error message saying that there was a program error, and photoshop locks up. I have to force quit. I am using a G5 dual 2.5 and 2 Gigs of RAM. I tried reinstalling without any luck.
Any ideas?

Does it work in a new User Account?
Have you tried cleaning-out your Caches (use Cocktail); or trashing Prefs.?

How can you create a contact sheet that you can email?

I see that you can print a contact sheet but how can you make a contact sheet that you can email where receiver can open the thumbnails and view?

Hi,
You can either use Bridge and the Output workspace, or grab optional plug-ins for CS5 and run Ps on OSX in the 32 bit mode. (Or grab the excellent 3rd party script, Contact Sheet X, and run that in Ps. http://ps-scripts.sourceforge.net/ContactSheetX/csx.html).

Adobe Bridge and respectable contact sheet

Hi!
How is it that such a set of tools CC does not have a program to easily create a contact sheet of the photos or an entire directory tree with k-art?
I'm working on OS X, probably because at the Bridge program since its creation looked like "prosthesis" for Widnows Explorer. (Sorry, I'm sure I do not want to offend anyone).
CC version is completely left requiring a separate installation so. module with the mysterious name "Adobe Output Module". http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/install-output-module-bridge-cc.html
but In OS X 10.8.5 has not stopped working!?
On the PC for more than ten years is a fantastic app. Thumbs Plus (unfortunately not for OS X), but it looks like Adobe Bridge that had no patterns.
Do contact sheets from mix material or image are no longer necessary tool in professional graphics work?
I do not understand. I will be grateful for suggestions because I think something missed.
Best Regards!

Thank you for your response.
No, AOM in Bridge does not work.
Finding how to create contac sheets by CC took me some time. I discovered the "trick" of AOM.!? The result disappointed me, It's does not work on my system.
I'm supposed to CC but I wander in this task as a child in the fog. Adobe Help for this simple task of working with graphics seems quite murky.
I would like to learn how to use Adobe to create contact sheet because I do not understand.
Best Regards!

Bridge to InDesign Contact Sheet - Define Caption Code for name?

Hello,
Another beginners question, but I promise after this I'm done:
I'm using a script written for Bridge CS4 to create contact sheets in InDesign v 5.03.
When the dialog window opens in Bridge to set the parameters for outputting the contact sheet, one of the option is to give the items on the contact sheet a caption - for this it offers some suggested codes.
To add the filename as the caption, the code is <var filename>. This gives me the file name plus extension i.e. image1.jpg.
Creation date is another, code is: <var cdate[YYMMDD]>
I would like the caption to just be the filename without the .jpg extension, i.e. image1
Does anyone know what the code would be to give the script the instruction to leave off the extension, please?
Many thanks in advance.

Oh, you're my hero, Bob!!
I didn't know about Find/Replace - told you I was a novice.
What you've taught me today will save me soooooooo much time!
Cheers!

How can I save my contact sheets in Photoshop Lightroom?

How can I save my contact sheets in Photoshop Lightroom? I see that you create the sheets under the Print tab but how can I save them as jpgs to my desktop?

Kittie,
I use this workflow and it works really well for me; it's really strange that it
i did
work for you and now it doesn't.
I had a quick dabble and
i may
have an explanation. If I read your error message it looks like "New Folder" is trying to create a folder ~kittie/Desktop/3 Working/Contact Pages. However, the automator "create folder" won't create folders recursively like that - it will only work if "3 Working" already exists. Certainly I was able to reproduce the 'quick flash error message and bomb out with no results' effect by asking it to produce a directory from one that didn't already exist. When I added two Finder actions it didn't work as I expected - producing 74 files in subdirectories that just looped round and round when I expected one file and one directory.
I added a shell script that renames the files too and it all works just dandy for me. If you let me know your e-mail I'll post the automator "app" file and shell script I use. It gives you sensibly named files instead of the sdkjfdfadkljfb.jpeg thing that comes out of automator.

Unable to print Contact Sheets from iPhoto

Hi there,
Since installing Lion 10.7.5 on my Mac Pro I no longer get the option to print Contact Sheets from iPhoto. I'm running quite an old version of it I think (Version 6.0.6), however this was no problem before the upgrade.
Can anyone suggest a solution for this?
Thanks in advance.

I just fired up my iPhoto 6.0.6 under Mt. Lion and I have no contact option in that version either. You'll have to upgrade to at least iPhoto 7 (08) in order to get contact sheets back. So you might as well upgrade to the latest iPhoto from the App Store.
If you also want the latest versions of iWeb and iDVD (which have been discontinued by Apple) you'll have to purchase a copy of the iLife 11 disc from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: iLife 11.

Right, I finally managed to get it sorted out.
iCloud only accept version 3.0 vcards, and the one I was using were version 2.1 so that's why it wasn't picking it up. So the easy way to get that sorted out is, use a gmail account.
I know you don't wanna do it because you think it's too much hassle and stuff, but trust me it only takes 5 minutes and that's it.
1. Create a Gmail Account.
2. Export your Old VCard files to the Gmail Account.
3. Now Import them from Gmail to your PC again.
And, that's it, that's just makes the new imported version in 1 file contains your all contacts in version 3.0. Now you can just upload that on icloud and then sync it with your iphone.
That's what I did and it worked, and I am sure if you wanna replace this file in the Contacts folder under your User Account in Windows and then try to sync Contacts in Tunes, it should work, but as I said, I did it with iCloud and it worked for me. So aye, that's pretty much it. Phewwww..
Been searching for it for the whole day and it took 5 minutes in the end, badass...
Anyway, don't lose hope and always Google for everything!
