Print module: auto fill template from selection on film strip

Question

A picture says more than 1000 words.Normally I use this for people, but to protect the privacy, I did not want to put people on the internet...This is what i want:I have created a template, like the one below.One a single page I want to show 2 different images in different sizes and some flipped.Image 1: the big one and the bottom rowImage 2: the left side and rotated.On my film strip I have 100 sets of 2 photos, so 200 in total.Question: how can I automatically have the 100 pages created, without manually dragging the photos.Like the Lightroom template 4x5 Contact sheet. When selected, this template creates 50 pages automatically.

I do not think that Lightroom alone can do this for you. (what a PIA.!)

"Picture Package" will only accept ONE photo for all the cells on a page.

"Custom Package" can only fill the cells manually by drag&drop.

There may be a plugin- somewhere in the wide world- that will do what you need. Keep searching.

Definitely NOT an automatic method but trying to think of a logical way how I could print two images in a package as you describe-

1. In Lr, Create two different Picture Package templates . (One for the verticals V, one for the landscapes H)

("Print to File" can automate many Package 'prints' automatically)

2. Open pairs of V & H "as layers" in Photoshop and mask to combine into one image. (with an action)
