Any way to make a contact sheet of images at correct size / crop?

[turner111]

Hi everyone-

Is there an automated way to create a contact sheet from an ID doc (or series of docs, preferably) that retain image size and cropping?

thanks!

as in setting image fitting options and making an object style out of it?

i am talking about these options:

Hi Derek - I'm not actually sure what they're covering. What's it about?

[Dave Creamer of IDEAS]

Adobe Bridge can make a contact sheet. (Switch to the Output workspace.)

Thanks, I'll take a look.

Hi turner111,

should the contact sheet be a PDF file?

And should every image be positioned on its own page where the page size is the size of the image?

Hi Uwe,

Does not need to be a PDF; should be a single contact sheet (or, multiple if there are too many images to fit on a single sheet).

thanks

There's a also facility called Contact Sheet II found under File > Automate in Photoshop.

Hi Derek,

Contact Sheet II is what I started with, but doesn't allow this "customization".
