Question

Creating a collage in 3.2.1

Apologies in advance--new to the platform. Searched the boards but couldn't find anything. 

 

Does anyone know how to make a collage in Adobe Lightroom 3.2.1? All the tutorials I can find use a Print Module, which this version does not seem to have. Any help would be great--been beating my head against a wall for an hour.

You can use the Lr web app to make a collage type gallery for sharing.You can choose a cover pic, and segment rows and columns and add titles and text. Here is a link of one I made earlier after a trip to the Surrey Hills.

    Hi 99jon,

     Learn something new about "Lr web app" every day. I did not realize this 'Design' option existed!

    I am one more trying to make sense of Adobe's online presentation Apps.

    I have used "Portfolio", and have experimented with "Spark".

    Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

      Nice monochrome shots. I think Portfolio only comes with the Photography Plans; not with the Lightroom 1TB plan.

       

      If you wish to make collages for print or for creating book pages I would recommend Photoshop Elements which has built-in layouts. You can purchase a perpetual licence without a subscription. You can also try the software free for 30 days. See my YouTube video demo.

        You are right, there is no print module in Lightroom 3.2.1. The easiest way (in my opinion) to create a collage is to use Photoshop. That's the way I have done it in tthe past. It can be done using Lightroom Classic, although I think it's a little awkward or clunky compared to Photoshop. But there is no provision for collages in Lightroom 3.2.1.

        You would need to download Lightroom Classic which has the print module and is a local disc based workflow.

         

        Lightroom 3.2.1 is the cloud based Lightroom which does not yet have a print module.
