Random image order when printing multiple images on one page.

If I filter images within a browser (lets say * stars or better) and then select print, and set up multiple different images per sheet to print, then the order of the images on the pages is seemingly random, certainly not the oder within the browser. If I print 4 images per sheet it might start with the 3rd image, then the 9th, then the 2nd, then the 12th. If I don't filter the images and select all the images in the browser it seems to be OK.
Any ideas?

Printing multiple photos onto one page

Sorry, fairly new to PSE9!
Have a group of photos I need to print to actual size (3cm x 4cm) to go into a photo frame. They are all cropped and ready to go but there doesn't seem to be an option to print multiple images onto one page at a custom size? A contact sheet only gives me the option for the number of columns and picture package doesn't give any such option either as far as I can see! I'm sure I must be missing something here!
Any help much appreciated! Don't want to waste photo paper printing each small photo individually!

How to print multiple copies on one page ?

How to print multiple copies of one document on one page ?
in coreldraw I used to make the document -for example a business card 5x9 - and when sending to print it automatically placed the number of cards that would fit in my A4 sheet.
how do I make the same operation in Indesign.
thanks

Hi, Peter S.
>I can see that as a shortcut to printing a page of different cards for multiple people, but to do a simple n-up of a single card it seems overly complex to me. What am I missing?
* It's just an alternative to copy/paste and step/repeat.
* For a one-time only use, perhaps it's a little more complex than necessary. But for any future needs, only the content of the data file needs to be changed, either by editing, or by pointing to a new data file. If different cards for multiple people becomes necessary, it's ready to go.

I can not print multiple pictures on one page pse13 windows 8

I have tried to print multiple pictures on one sheet and the program will not send it to the printer. I went into picture package and got the 2 pics to show on one page and chose my printer, but when I hit print the screen goes back to the print page with only one pic on the page

I don’t think it’s my printer I printed many multiple pictures with my old photoshop 5 with no prblems. the only reason I bought photoshop 13 was because 5 would not work on my new computer with windows 8.

Change print order when printing multiple photos

Hi,
I am printing multiple duplex pages in Photoshop Elements 6 but cannot get them to print in the correct order.
Can anyone help me?
Tracey

You can also create a package from scratch in the editor: create a blank file the size you want, make sure it and your photos have the same resolution, then copy/paste your photos into it. Each one will come in on a new layer and you can use the move tool to arrange them.

How to print multiple emails on one page

How do I print multiple emails on a single page?

Thanks, but fumbling around I think I found a better solution.
All of the incoming e-mails have a see more from...." line in blue type at the bottom. When I click on the"See more from…" line it opens up the entire chain of discussion which can then be printed on a single page. Exactly what I've been searching to do.

Print multiple pictures on one page..so frustrating please help

Just trying to print multiple pictures on a single piece of paper. The drop down menu that says "print multiple pictures on page" is grayed out and wont let me select it. I have read thread after thread , watched tutorial after tutorial and nothing addresses this simple command. What am I missing. Thank you in advance for your help

Select the pictures and type Command+P to bring up the Print window. Then click on the Contact Sheet option at the left. You can change the number of photos per page and their size by clicking on the Customize button and the changing the number of columns on the page. The size of each photo will automatically be scaled to fit.
If you want a specific size, then instead of selecting Contact Sheet select a print size. The size you select will determine how many photos of that size you'll get on the paper size selected.

Create a new blank document the size of your paper and then copy the photos you want to print into it. They'll each come in on a new layer and you can move them wherever you want, rotating if wanted, to make best use of the paper.

Help printing multiple images

I have all my images stored in Aperture. When I try to print (output/print image), I get a nice print dialogue box. I do not seem to have the option to print multiple images on a single page. With XP, there was a 'print wizard' that would allow me to choose a paper size, and then fill that paper with images (ex. 3 x 4x6 on a 8x10). I would also use MS Digital Imaging Suite to print multiple images on a single paper.
I am somewhat new to the Mac experience, maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
Please help me with this

While I am not familiar with Aperture, the print dialog box for Preview should be quite similar. If you have the full options showing, by clicking on the expansion triangle near the top right, the option to print N-up will be at the bottom of the dialog box. In order to do that, you need to have more than one photo selected for printing., of course. Then you should be able to adjust the layout and size of your photos.

How can I print multiple images on one sheet: PSE 10/Mac?

When printing, I can have all of my images in the dialoug box - but cannot figure out how to get more than one image on a sheet! For example, I am printing several photos a 2x2, and want to put as many as possilble on 1 sheet instead of using a seperate sheet for each image. I am on a Mac.
Any ideas?? I can't seem to find the answer. Thanks!

Barbara B.
Thanks for the reply to wdwpartners question.
I am new to PSE 10 (on Windows 7) and having the same problem with printing multiple photos on one sheet. With 14-20 images both contact sheet and picture package force you into 2x2 prints, not the image's original HxW ratio thus loosing some of the image on paper. Am I missing something?
My old version of PSE gave me an option to "print multiple photos" and custom select the image dimentions which was very useful to me. Please let the powers that be know this user asked for that option back!!
Thanks for a reply.

How do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3? i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow. i see how you do it when you just play a slideshow.

how do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3? i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow. i see how you do it with presets when you just play a slideshow, but i don't see an option to randomly shuffle the slide order when you create a new slideshow. i know you can sort it by different fields, but i want it to be random. thanks.

If you want to rearrange images in random order you can try an AppleScript:
retrieve a list of selected images from Aperture
shuffe the list properly
create an album in Aperture and add the images from the list to the album (make sure that the album set to be orederd manually)
Here is a sample script that shuffles the selected images and displays them in random order in Full Screen Mode:
on removeItem(ims, i)
-- remove the item at position "i" from a list ims
          if ims is {} then return {}
          if (length of ims is 1) then return {}
          if i < 2 then return rest of ims
          if (i = length of ims) then return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims)
          if i > (length of ims) then return ims -- should be error?
          return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims) & (items (i + 1) thru (length of ims) of ims)
end removeItem
on shuffle_items(ims)
-- shuffle the items of the list "ims" randomly
          local numitems, ims_shuffled, nextrest, nextpick, i
          set numitems to length of ims
          if length of ims < 2 then return ims
          set ims_shuffled to {}
          set nextrest to ims
          repeat until nextrest is {}
                    set i to (random number (numitems - 1)) + 1
                    set nextpick to item i of nextrest
                    set beginning of ims_shuffled to nextpick
                    set numitems to numitems - 1
                    set nextrest to removeItem(nextrest, i)
          end repeat
          return ims_shuffled
end shuffle_items
on shuffleIms()
-- retrieve the selected images from Aperture
-- and display them in random order in full screen mode
          local imageSel, shuffled, i
          tell application "Aperture"
activate
                    set imageSel to (get selection)
                    set shuffled to my shuffle_items(imageSel)
                    set fullscreen to true
                    if imageSel is {} then error "Please select some images."
                    repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                              reveal {item i of shuffled}
delay 3 -- chnage that to the time you want
                    end repeat
                    set fullscreen to false
                    return shuffled
          end tell
end shuffleIms
shuffleIms()
Some more code snippets to go from here:
To create an album:
                    tell library 1
                              if not (exists album "shuffledAlbum") then
make new album with properties {name:"shuffledAlbum", image version:shuffled}
                              end if
                    end tell
And to add the images from the shuffled list to the album:
                    repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                              duplicate item i of shuffled to album "shuffledAlbum"
                    end repeat

Printing multiple images on single page

Can anyone explain how to print multiple images on the same page such as 4-4x6 photos? Or the same image more than once on a page - similar to the N-up option in iPhoto? Anything new and helpfull for printing in 1.5? Thanks.

No, it isn't what we're looking for.
Let's take the example of a professional portrait photographer (me? ) trying to set up a home-lab with a wide format, roll printer.
I get an order for, say, 2 4x5 of image 1, 2 4x5 of image 2, 4 5x7 of image 3. I have 10" paper loaded in my roll.
What I would want to do is gang the prints onto 3 "units" - the 4 4x5 on one 8"x10" unit, and 2 5x7 on each 7"x10" unit.
Since my clients ordered specific sizes, I need to make sure I get the prints sized exactly right (contact sheet tool doesn't let me do this) and since printing is pricey, I want to make sure to waste as little paper/ink as possible. I also don't want to get stuck doing a lot of trimming.
So, in lightroom, photoshop, imagebuddy, portraits-n-prints etc, I would just ask the app to output the package for me. In Aperture, I'm stuck. I can't use the book tool because it uses a (moronically) fixed page-size. I can't use the contact sheet tool because it doesn't let me specify image size/aspect ratio. I can't use the "standard" print tool because it only prints one image per page.
This is a glaring omission, and a slap in the face to the professionals that Aperture claims to see as its target audience.

Merge print multiple image files on one page

Hello,
A Windows 7 end user seeks for a technical support from me. She tries to merge print multiple image files (JPEG) by using the following steps :-
1) highlight more than 1 files
2) [Right-click] then Choose [Print]
3) she could print the multiple images on ONE page successfully when she initially bought/used this Win7 computer , but recently (these 2 months) she got the error : pop up a few dialogue windows saying "Insufficient memory"
4) I helped her to close all other applications software and found no high CPU/memory processes and also asked for help from hardware manufacturer and got NO virtual memory and physical memory full error by running a utility tool provided.
The hardware config :-
- Windows 7 Prof Service Pack 1 64 bit
- 4GB memory
- i5 Intel CPU
Anyone can help me to fix the issues for my end user ?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Bruce
