Title: How can I do this? Post by: mogur2 on December 08, 2009, 04:07:00 AM Hi,
I have 24 small images. 20 landscape and 4 portrait. I know I can set Qimage to 4 x 6 or 6 x 4, but is there a way to have the 20 landscape images landscape and the 4 portrait images, vetical on the same 13x19" page? Thanks, Mogur2 Title: Re: How can I do this? Post by: ballentphoto on December 08, 2009, 06:12:34 AM Qimage should be autorotating the images to best fit onto the paper. It does not really care about if the images are portrait or landscape since you are going to be cutting them out. If you insist in a certain orientation you can right click on the image (on the right side pane) and select Set Print Rotation (Degrees) and choose the same as thumbnail on the fly out menu.

A better way is to click the little padlock icon below the preview; that locks the orientation and so that prints on the page are the same as the thumbnail. Do this before adding images to the queue.Quote I can set Qimage to 4 x 6 or 6 x 4, ..... to have the 20 landscape images landscape and the 4 portrait images, vertical on the same 13x19" page Whether they will all fit or not will depend on which auto placement method is chosen. However, a quick bit of mental arithmetic says they wont fit: even if all horizontal, 4 rows by 6 columns of 6x4's is 24x24 somewhat larger than one 13x19 page!Terry Title: Re: How can I do this?

Insert 4 for columns, and six for rows. That gives you 24 prints to that page. Now click the padlock to locked as Terry said, and insert your 20 horizontal images. Make sure crop scissors is on. The last 4 images to be inserted would be your 4 images that you want to stay vertical. Now insert those. You have 24 prints on that page the way you asked for it, except they are not 6 x 4 size. Maybe something above will help?? Fred Title: Re: How can I do this?

So did I Terry. I am still not sure which way is right. 4 x 6 print size, or 4 columns and six rows.We will have to hear from Mogur2 or 3. ;D :D Title: Re: How can I do this?

Well that would have saved me a steps in the past. ;D |
