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:

  • 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....?

    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....
    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.

  • Multiple contact sheet from multiple image folders

    Hi everybody,
    I have a folder with 120 subfoders with 30 images each, 
    is there a "automatic way" to make a  contact sheet of every subfolder: 120 contact sheet of 30 images in this case? 
    i need help

    Hi GKaiseril, thanks for reply.
    Yes, I use Bridge to do that, but I need to automate the process.
    Know a script with which you can select a folder and make a contact sheet different for each subfolder containing? Preferably for Bridge or Photoshop.
    Best regards.

  • Printing a contact sheet from multiple saved pdf drawings

    How can I print a gridded contact sheet of several drawings I have saved as PDF's?  They are all in separate files but I need to present on one sheet of paper.  Seems like this would be easy but I can't figure it out.....

    I would post to the Photoshop Elements Forum, as it has several features that are either not in Photoshop, or work differently. Folk in that forum will know exactly what you will need to do.
    Good luck,

  • Can you make a continuous slideshow from multiple folders in iphoto?

    can you make a continuous slideshow from multiple folders in iphoto?

    Greetings,
    Yes you can but you have to add the images from the various events or albums to a single slideshow. 
    Create your slideshow, then drag all the images you want in that slideshow to the slideshow on the left hand side.
    -- http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/9.0/en/pht6d9758b0.html
    When you go to play the slideshow you can click on settings and make sure the "repeat" option is checked.

  • Zip'ing files from multiple folders to the same zip file

    Could somebody recommend a method to create a zip file with file contents from multiple folders? Or is there an application I can drag and drop a bunch of files to zip em?

    First highlight all of the folders or files. If they're not right next to each other, or on the same drives, hold down the Command key while clicking to choose the next without losing previous choices.
    Once they're all highlighted, right click on any highlighted item and choose "Compress xxx Items".

  • Picking files from multiple folders based on name send to destination folde

    Hi,
       I want to pick multiple files from multiple folders with one root folder. Based on file name I want to send it to diffirent folders. No need to go for message mapping. Can anyone suggest me.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Prasad Kotla.

    Hi Prasad,
    to pick the files from multiple source directory, can use "Advance Selection for Source File" in Sender CC.
    If you wand to develop a Scenario without Message mapping, develop a scenario as "Sender as Virtual receiver"
    This option is available in Sender agreement, just give the dummy name for Msg Interface and Namespace, Name defined should be same in Rec Agreement.
    Develop only: Sende CC, Receiver CC, SA, RA
    No need to develop ID and RD as no mapping is involved.
    If u want to send the files to different folders of receiver side, just develop the adapter module which changes the directory based on the sender filename.
    If the sender and receiver directory is same than check the "adapter specific Msg Attribute"  and "directory" checkbox in both the sender and receiver CC. in this case no need to develop Custom module for changing the directory. files will be automatically placed in the path they were picked from  sendor directory
    appreciate if useful

  • Import 800K photos (many duplicates) into Aperture from multiple folders in one hard drive.

    I have a hard drive with 800,000+ photos in it, many are duplicates after I have made multiple back-ups to different drives over the years and then transferred all the photos to this new drive. The photos are located in different folders but are all in the same hard-drive. How do a import the photos in the easiest/fastest way? How will they get sorted, by date? Is there anyway that I could delete the duplicates without losing photos? I have many photos with the same file name (but from different cameras), tumbnails, edited photos etc.
    Very thankful for your assistance!

    Hi,
    You can import photos from multiple folders.
    Just click File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files and Folders
    Now select the folders you want to import photos from (they should be at same level in the directory, say all folders in My Pictures) using Ctrl+Click, tick the checkbox for 'Get Photos from subfolders' if not already checked and then click 'Get Media'.
    Hope that will help
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.?

    Is it possible to export a contact sheet from lightroom for printing?
    Or does it have to be printed directly from Lightroom

    Or check out Jao's Photo Blog for how to do it to a JPEG. Google it, you'll find it.

  • I'm looking for a digital picture frame that is compatible with the iPhone 5 and 4S.  I was looking at the Panasonic MW-20 but from what I can see I don't think it is.  Any information would be great!  Looking to buy a replacement frame for Christmas.

    Hi - the new lightning connector on the iPhone 5 has an authentication chip so very few 3rd party manufacturers have come out with compatible devices - so I doubt that you will find a frame that works for both phones - however Apple has come out with 2 apapters - one is a cable and one is a direct 30 pin to lightning device - you would have to check out each frame to see if one of these might work - I looked at the Panasonic and it looks promising but I would check the return policy of anything that you buy in a case it doesn't work.

  • I have a contact sheet of photos how can I quickly import the individual photos from the 9 photo contact sheet without edit each one then having to reimport contact sheet

    I have a full contact sheet of 9 photos which I have imported. How do I take each individual photo and save it without having to edit from the contact sheet each time as this forces me to reimport the contact?

    You can't. If you have a sheet with 9 shots on it and you want to make 9 individual shots you'll need to either
    Import 9 times
    Or
    Duplicate 8 times
    And crop accordingly.
