Thanks both - great info - I'll have a play.  Flexibility always has a cost but once mastered it's worth it.

many thanks

Thanks Fred.

I've had a quick play with that and it looks like it'll do what I want (not sure if it rearranges all photos in the queue - I'll do some research).  It would be useful if dragging the corner would show the new size (dynamically) rather than having to gauge it visually.

thanks for your help.

I am creating a collage of photos and I want to print each one at different sizes.
What I'd like to be able to do is to say I want photo 1 at 4" wide for example (with length being whatever that works out to be to keep the photo ratio), photo 2 at 2.5" wide etc. I would load the printer up with lots of paper and QImage would optimise how they are printed on each page.  Ideally I'd be able to set a margin around each photo as well (e.g. 2mm) so that each photo didn't blend in to the next photo.

It may of course be possible to do this already but I'm not seeing it!
