Title: Fit to width or height
Post by: avpman on October 04, 2022, 06:05:12 PM
I hope I can explain this clearly -

I want a full page of prints 3 x 3 square. I have a collection of jpgs, different sizes, and diff orientations. I want the jpgs auto-rotated and to fit inside the 3x3 squares without cropping or expanding the image to fill the 3x3. I might call it "fit to width or fit to height. Portrait orientation should automatically fit to height, landscape jpgs should automatically fit to width.

Is this possible?

How many per page and what size is your page?

17 x 22 and it auto-creates the number of 3 x 3 boxes on its own. See attached.

Open the Print Tab, and select MORE. Then choose select a size. In the two boxes, type 3.0
That will do it.
Turn off auto crop

OK now add images

Fred's way works if you don't care where the images appear on the page.  If you want to cut 3x3 squares (with the page split evenly into 3x3 squares) and you want the images to be centered in each square, choose "Template/Centered" placement and turn the crop button off.

Regards,
Mike

Perfect, that worked. Exactly what I wanted! 👍👍👍
