Thanks Mike for adding this... I am missing something though.  I want to print to file and the main part to be 24"x36" with a .6" border tried it all sorts of ways and I just seem to be getting little strips of image called imageName(1,1) imageName(2,1) etc and the main image.  Any ideas.. I still need to drag the file into Photoshop so I can place my guide lines so PTF is my first step.  It seems to be freaking out that I set the PTF dimensions to 24x36 and then tell it to print a border.  I would expect that the print to file image would increase it's dimension and plus show the border. 

This part of your question I can probably shed some light.
When you print to file, you are offered two choices.
One is to make a file for the web, and the other to make a file for printing.
The web defaults to sRGB as it should, and the Print to File for printing, tells you that it is going to use your printer profile from Prtr ICC.
So, if there is any specific profile that you want to have embedded in your Print to File, simply place that profile in the PRTR ICC box before using Print to File.
It works, TIF ot JPG

You can get guide marks and crop marks in Qimage. I thought in the recent beta, it gave them for the borders too, but it does not for the current version. Imnsho, I think a pencil and ruler would be quicker than going into anything Adobe ;-), just for finding centre lines or why.

Best wishes,

The beta and the current version are identical in that regard.  They both allow guide and crop marks.
