Trying to create the second print job with the second set of three images by dragging thumbnails over the first set of image file names in the print queue is probably better than starting from scratch. However, the newly imported images are often rotated. That's not that big a deal. What's odd is trying to rotate an image 90 degrees left and finding it sometimes rotates 90 degrees right instead.
Hi Bill,
Off the top of my head,to have the images stop auto rotating, just turn on The Image orientation lock, or go into Freehand mode.
My biggest trouble has been attempting to adjusting a photo mat size only to find the image inside it resized or rotated, or the mat dimensions on the wrong axes in relation to the image; trying to delete a photo mat sometimes brings up a size error, even though there's lots of room; copying and pasting images to repeat them does not work consistently ... all sorts of mayhem. But maybe I'm doing something wrong, or expecting too much. Any tips?
Mats are pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
If the images are shrinking when you add a mat, you have the wrong button selected for your job.
Click the one that says, "Grow mats around print"
That will maintain print size.
As for the wrong dimension of the mat appearing on a side you didn't want, see screen snap
See the cursor. It is pointing to a little sign which when clicked, makes all sides even.
Do your mats in the Page editor and not on the preview screen. You will be able to select the mat properly because it's a bigger view, plus you can see the size change on the right side of the screen.
Example: If you have a 5 x 7 print that is getting a 0.1 inch mat, you will see Qimage read the new print size as 5.20 x 7.20, so you know it's right.
As for any specific help on placement or sizes you need to give more information: print sizes, are all the images the same resolution size? Is crop on?
Etc Etc.
Hope some of this helps
Fred
