Custom size photos

Help -- I saw a similar topic in IPhoto 8 forum but I am still using version 6.0.
I want to resize a photo to a specific custom size. 4.5x4.5 inches. I am not sure how to do this. Tried to convert to pixels under custom constraint and that didn't seem to work. I don't know what the size of the "square" option under the standard sizes is (the measurement) but it is bigger than I need.
Can I make custom sizes in IPhoto 6??
Thanks!

first crop the photo to 45x45 (cropping works only in ratios and does not accept fractions so this will give you a square photo) then print it a a custom size of 4.5" x 4.5" - pixels and inches have no relation to each other

  • How do I print more than one custom-size photo on a page in PSE 10?

    I recently upgraded from Photoshop Elements 6 to Photoshop Elements 10.  I make greeting cards, and on PSE 6 I was able to print two custom-size (6-1/2” x 5”) cards on each 8-1/2” x 11” sheet of photo paper.  The option to print more than one custom-size card on a single sheet of paper is not available in PSE 10.  I want to know how I can print more than one custom-size card (or photo) on a page in PSE 10?

  • How can I order a custom size photo from iphoto?

    Hi,
    I have three frames that I want to order photos for from iphoto.  The custom size is 5 x 5 which is no problem selecting from within iPhoto, but when it comes time to actually place the "order", there is no option to select a 5 x 5 size.  Can anyone tell me if that is possible?
    Thank you!

    You can't from Apple.  You'll have to use a 3rd party online photofinisher that offers square photos. Or print them yourself.

  • Custom size photos with iPhoto 6?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to print a photo in passport size (which is 2x2, I believe). I found directions for doing this with iPhoto 08, but not iPhoto 6 (which is what I have). Can this be done with the older version of iPhoto?
    Thanks,
    Hania

    Hania:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. No, there's no custom size option in iPhoto 6. You'll need to use a 3rd party application to print a custom size.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How can I custom size photo paper to 11" x 14" in PSE 11?

    I have a Canon PRO-10 printer.  I made the custom size change to 11 x 14  in the driver's printer properties, but it does not show up as a choice when I open the dropdown in PSE 11.  Is there no way to use custom size paper in PSE 11? What am I doing wrong?

    I don't have PSEv.11, in v.8 I do the following ---I doubt that they have changed this:
    In full Editor, go to File>print
    In the dialog that comes up, #3Paper size, from drop-down select Custom size
    Next, #5 Print size select Custom in drop-down
    This opens the "More Options" dialog>custom Print size tab. Here you can enter the dimensions.
    There is also a "More Options" label one can click towards the bottom left in the print dialog - same thing, just different way to get there
    Note: It's best to crop to specification prior to sending to the printer. In your hypothetical, crop to 11x14.
    This way you are in control, not the printer.

  • Need help ordering custom size prints in iphoto....

    I don't know how to order custom size photos? After I edit photo in constrain tab and type the size i need it doesn't show that available size in kodak menu. Only standard sizes show up like 3x5, 4x6 etc... I need various sizes like 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 for example.

    HI Plexi,
    As far as I know, there are only the standard sizes available for prints.
    You will have to print the custom sizes with your printer.
    thanks - I'll give your suggestion a try and let you know how it turns out.

  • Printing custom size prints

    I am having trouble printing custom size photos on regular size paper. I use the custom scale setting in the layout dialog box. However, the result does not match the requested size in the preview window and it does not print the requested size. For example I would like to scale a photo to print 4x10 on a 8/12X11 sheet of paper. When I custom scale to 4x10 the result is 4 high but 7.5 wide. Any help would be appreciated? I'm printing on an HP 9180.

    Have you cropped the photo to your desired 4x10 aspect ratio? If you do that, then the only printing part of the photo is that portion you've chosen in your crop. Then in the print dialog, you can tell it to print to 8.5x11 and set the margins there to .5 inch in order for it to scale to 10". Or have you done all this already?

  • How does one create a photo book of a custom size? Only option available is 11x 8.5 inches

    Please help me with the basic steps for creating a photo book in pse12 of a custom size e.g. 12x15
    I want to create design using pse12 and get the album printed by a local vendor. Please help. I am stuck with the fixed size offered by Adobe.
    I want to create Photoshop photo book in order to spread out few single images on 2 sheets. I won't be able to do the same if I create pages separately.
    Thanks in advance.

    Aha. You can't have two different page sizes in one single document.
    You are right, you could do it with three separate documents, and 'glue' them together using a Book document. It's far easier to place a blank placeholder page in your actual document, and create a new doc just for the oversized page.
    When the time comes to produce a final file (hopefully, a PDF), you can leave it as is -- two separate documents --, or use Acrobat to stitch the larger page into the main document (at the request of your printer).

  • Difficulty printing borderless photos for custom sizes

    I am finding it difficult to print a borderless photo. When I try to print using the photo paper I have it always prints a border (or does not print in the border - so i guess this is called cropped).
    The photo paper is not in the "Paper Size" list of the print dialogue in Preview (or iPhoto). So I specify the size using the "Manage Custom Sizes" option (similar in iPhoto). The size is 89 x 127 mm. In the print preview it looks fine, but when it is printed, a white border (ie, non printed area) crops the whole image. The one side is a 5mm border, with its opposite being 3 and the other two being 3.4.
    I have noticed that when I play around with the Paper size, the standard sizes (like A4) for example, all have a "borderless" option (ie, I can select "A4" or "A4 (borderless)"). When A borderless size is selected certain other options are disabled/enabled. For example, the options under the "borderless printing" 'tab' is enabled and the options under the "duplex printing and margins" 'tab' becomes disabled. This is the exact opposite for when I try and specify my paper size. So perhaps this is a factor. (Even though I would have expected the "border" option set to "none" would mean that there would be no border...)
    So just to save ppls time, this is what I am doing when I print:
    1. The image is exactly 89x127mm (created with GIMP)
    2. I print using Preview (similar results are achieved in iPhoto, but more pain to get there)
    3. I set the paper size to 8.9 by 12.7cm (see note 1)
    4. I don't change the scale (though i have experimented with all options here and nothing seems to change).
    5. I check that Layout > Border > None is selected. It always is.
    6. I change Quality and Media > Media Type to Glossy Photo Paper. (not that this should matter)
    7. I go to borderless printing tab and note that it is disabled. great.
    8. The preview shows no borders and so I hit print, but the borders come anyway (the image gets cropped).
    Note
    I have managed to print borderless photo images with this printer using the supplied photo paper that came with the printer. I don't think i have been able to do it since moving to this new size but I may be wrong...
    Note 1
    When I am setting the size in Preview, I can specify the "Non-Printable Areas". I set these to zero, though I note that the 'canon mp640 series' presets are the exact measurements that is the area that does not get printed.
    Note 2
    In case it has a bearing on the problem, the printer I am using is a Canon MP640.

    I have had some more trials to print without boarders. This time, it was inside of iPhoto. I had made a greeting card and wanted to print to a custom size. but without the ability to select the size as a boarder less size, I was unable to print directly. So instead, I had to save as a pdf > save pdf to iPhoto and then print the image as a photo (instead of a card).

  • Custom size in the photo collage

    Hello,
    I would like to create a wallpaper in 2560x1440px.
    When I try to make a photo collage there are only 3 different sizes I can choose.
    How can I add a custom size?
    Thanks for your help.

    Why not design your own? It is possible to make a collage manually and its quite easy from Expert Mode using the regular tools.
    Click File >> Open and select all of your photos
    That will add them to the project bin
    Then select File >> New >> Blank File
    Select background color White (or whatever you prefer) and add your width and height for your final image (set resolution 72 for web usage or 240 to 300 for printing) then click OK
    In the project bin click your first photo and drag it up into the main window on top of your new background.
    Click on the move tool and click in the center of the photo and drag to arrange it where you want on the background - you can hold down the shift key to maintain original proportions whilst dragging the corner handles of the bounding box to get the size you want.
    Do the same with the next photo (drag it up into the main window) and use the move tool to position it. Then continue with each image.
    Finally Click Layer >>Flatten image and save as jpeg. (Save as PSD if you want to preserve the layers for editing again)

  • Printing a custom size?

    How can I print a 3 1/2" x 4" photo? The picture is cropped to that size in iPhoto, but when I print it, it comes out much larger.

    Sara:
    You're going to have to use a 3rd party application for that. iPhoto is geared just for the standard printing sizes. Go to VersionTracker.com and do a search for image editor or print photo. You'll get a number of candidates. Some use Portrait and Prints for customs sizes. I use Photoshop Elements which is also capable of some advanced editing.
    Do you Twango?

  • How do I print a custom size from Photoshop CS3?

    I am using Photoshop CS3 with System 10.6 Snow Leopard, and I am printing on an Epson Stylus Photo R2000. The custom paper size is 8.5 x 14 inches. When I print the page the design appears to have expanded beyond the paper size. I need to make a borderless print, so I can't just shrink the image. What do I need to do?

    There should be a Custom Size setting for your Printer in the Photoshop Print dialog: Page Setup > Paper Size > Manage Custom Sizes.

  • ID CS5.5 Mac - Trouble printing custom size 13x21 transparency

    I am trying to print a positive transparency for a screen print. The document is 13x21. I have a 13 wide transparency roll from which I have cut a 21" piece. I'm printing to an EPSON 1400.
    I cannot get the file to output to this szie. It cuts off the image within in 8.5x11 boundary every time.
    I have:
    - set a custom size in the print dialog
    - clicked Page Setup in the print dialog and set the custom size there as well, ignoring the warning about it not being the ID print dialog
    - the preview in the dialog will look perfectly oriented to the correct size in the little thumbnail
    - I have tried everything I can think of to try and get the output sizes in sync and correct
    - I switched to PDF to try that, fail again
    Is there anyone that can help with some step by step of a process that will work?
    Adobe ID CS5.5, EPSON Stylus Photo 1400, Mac Lion 10.7.5
    I just can't comprehend how this could be so difficult and unintuitive. Any insight would be freaking wonderul.

    Wow! Sudden serendipitous conclusion to this insanely frustrating issue.
    I had found information that the EPSON 1400 should be able to print 44" long output by default. I was searching specifically to find folks that had printed large or panoramic imagery and stumbled onto a UK photography site where a person has mentioned he'd written software that would allow this printer to even print beyond 44". That sounded great.
    BUT, the last post on the thread a guy mentioned how he was able to print up to 44" to an EPSON 1400 with ease. The solution, he said, was that the WIDTH of the print area in the page setup must be LESS THAN 13". Why? No explanation.
    So I reset my custom size to 12.5x21 inches and BAM! First attempt from InDesign printed successfully. I can work with the margin.
    Anyway, in case anyone else runs into this issue this works. Here is a link to the 2009 post that mentions this as well as info regarding printing longer than 44".
    This one is solved.

  • Custom Size Paper - Last Resort

    I'm using a Mac G4 PowerPC with OS X10.04 with an Epson Stylus Photo 2000P.
    I'm trying to use the Page Set-U menu in PhotoShop to print a custom document size 12x12 inches. The printer is capable of printing 13x19 in color. In the Page Set-Up menu I go to custom page size. I set up a new custom size file with the new size thand the margins and name the custom size. It shows up at the left under the customer file name. However, when I go back to Page Set-up and go to Paper size, my new customer size is listed at the bottom of all the Epson established custom-sized paper list, but the file name is in gray, not black, so cannot be selected.
    A hint might be that in the user defined area of the custom size window, I cannot get the Epson 2000P printer to show up. The only printer that will show is my Epson 5700i laser printer. The Epson 200P is my default printer in the Printer Setup Utilize window. Of course the 5700i will not print in color nor will it print 12x12. Is there a way I can get my Epson 2000P printer to show up in the user defined area? Maybe that's why my new custom size title does not appear as usable on paper size under the Print Setup.
    I talked at length with Epson. After trying all they could, obviously with no success, they said it must be a software issue. I can print all the other various sizes available in the Page listed on the Page Size under the Page Set-Up menu so they show in black, but not the custom size I developed that shows only in gray.
    I then called Apple, and was told they no longer support my computer. Thanks a lot Apple. I guess this is now my only option.
    Any help would sincerely be appreciated. Thank you very much if you can help me solve this issue.

    Hi - I'm not sure which printer you have or which application you're printing from, but your printer likely has a custom paper size setting.  In whatever application you're printing from, go into Print, select your printer and then choose Properties.  Depending on your printer, there will likely be an option for a customer paper size, where you can specify the size.  You might also go into Page Setup in your application and see if there is a customer paper size option in there as well.
    Hope that helps.
