This tutorial is to help you learn how to use adobe photoshop for
printing multiples pictures on one page. This method can be
used to save paper by making multiple copies of single or separate
pictures. This technique can also be used to make basic collages. Ok, once you have your pictures open in photoshop:
1. Create the
Document to be printed: create a new document that is a little under
8.5 inches by 11 inches (print size) and has a resolution of about
200 (File>New).
2. Then for all the pictures you
want to add to the print document: crop them to a reasonable size
relative to the print size such as 6 inch by 4 inch or 4 inch by 3
inch. Crop Tool (C) (Also make sure that their crop
resolution is also 200)
3. Then either use
the Move Tool (V) or copy and paste each individual picture onto the
document you created in step one. 4.
Once you have cropped and copied all the individual pictures over to
the print document from step one, you can arrange them in any way
you want by selecting the appropriate layers and moving them around
with the Move Tool (V).
For collages, you will have to arrange the layers in a way so the right
layers are on top so the correct images will appear on top of the
others. Then you can create any kind of arrangement you like. |
