2 contact sheet, collage or montage help

I have a task to create a composite collage or montage (or what you want to call it) similar to a Board-contact.  Children (a band of high school of 260 members) must be arranged in alphabetical order.  I can use the function of Contact 2 sheet in Photoshop and get 80% of what I want to really fast.  The photos are named in alphabetical order by family name.  A few clicks and BOOM I have a multi layer document.  Very fast.  But what I really want, it is the space in the middle to add text.  I want to add the names added through layers of text associated with a field in the imported image metadata.  Contact sheet 2 is not that.

I ask should be possible by means of scripts and actions.  But I have no experience with script and little or no experience of the action.  I'd be willing to pay for a tools to do it on my computer.  I know a couple of laboratories of printing that can do, but I prefer to create my own and then send it to a printer.

Thoughts, recommendations or requests are welcome.

Thank you.

BTW, I can do this manually but it will take forever.  For a work which would be ok, but I'm looking to do this type of effort one or two times a year.

Shuttle service.

After some advice and poking around, JJMacks other tools were practically a home run by doing what I had in a short period of time, after using the tools several times I was able to merge multiple files to create a collage of 230 + guess, I always try to pay on all aspects of the scripts that missed me on initial run , but he had a lot of fun to learn.

If If you are looking for a similar capabiltiies will fall on this post, you need to check JJMACK Collage Toolkit.

P.S. I attacked a very rough in that I created.  I have already put some finishing touches more about it last night.

  • Contact sheets for PSE9... help please. :)

    At my office, the latest version, we had was PSE2... Gasp! Contact sheets were so simple and I tried and tried to figure out how to make them in Photoshop Elements 9, nothing is. For example, I want to print 10 images (all contents in a folder on our server) - 2 per page. Please please help. I'm amazed at how much we relied on this feature. Thank you!

    Try the elements Organizer 9 photoshop under the print settings.

    Photoshop elements 9 is perfectly good software, so feel free to upgrade.

    There is just a slight learning curve because of some of the differences between pse2 and pse9.

    Rather than use folders, you must import your images in the Organizer.

  • II contact sheet - width is out of error

    I'm trying to set up a Contact sheet with a width of 108 inches in Photoshop CC 2015.1.2.  I get an error message saying that the width is out of range. It will only allow me to set a maximum width of 96,66 inches. However I have no problem using a width of 108 inches in Photoshop CS 6. Can anyone help?

    A possible solution is to go ahead and create it to 96,66 at a slightly higher resolution you need, then up to 108 nationwide.

    Hi Dayg,

    Please check your FTP settings in Lightroom.

    Are you able to connect and download using another FTP Client?

    Also try the steps below: -.

    1. from the Web in Lightroom module, click export instead of loading.

    2. save the Gallery to a location that you can find easily (like your desktop).

    3. manually copy the Gallery of his location to save to your FTP server.

    Let us know if that helps.

    Kind regards

  • Comparison of contact sheet in LR3 +?

    I use CS5 and I'm totally new to LR and am really sold on it! One thing that I think I saw that I surfed for more information has been the ability to print a comparison contact sheet for, say, white balance. Recently, I have an old color photo to restore and could really use a feature like this.

    Is this possible in lightroom3? (Maybe I've seen for CS5?). Thanks for any help you can offer.

    You probably thinking of changes in Photoshop. Not sure they still have in CS5.

  • Create a Contact sheet in CS5

    Arrrrg!  Where's the contact sheet in CS5?  I found how to do a Bridge, but the result is a .pdf file.  How can I create a contact sheet in the PS as a .jpg file?

    This should help:

    If plugins are 64-bit, they just won't be available when you run the 32-bit version.

  • Cannot use Contact sheet or effects

    PSE 6 on Mac OS x running.  When you try to do the plank PSE Contact (File menu), the option is grayed out.

    Trying to use from bridge (tools - Photoshop Elements - Contact Sheet II), happening in the PSE, but is that it works.  Ditto for Photomerge and Picture Package.

    In addition, when trying to apply an effect (say color pencil), I get a msg "the command color pencil is not currently available".

    I suspect that Adobe has dropped in PSE and does not remove references to menu.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You must click on the padlock at the bottom of the window and enter your OS X password to make changes in this window.

    To repair permissions: go to applications > utilities > disk utility. Click your hard disk in the list on the left, then click on repair permissions. In 10.5 it may take a long time to finish - just let it run. It is not too bad in 10.4 and 10.6 is a little better than 10.5 as well as the necessary time.

  • Create a PDF contact sheet - what is predefined PDF?

    Hello

    When I create a contact sheet, it creates a pdf file, but I do not understand what is the predefined pdf.

    Is it for the screen? print? where can I see or change or not at all?

    Thank you

    When I export to PDF from indesign I decide what preset I need: pdf x1a, or screen or printing etc..

    You are basically answered your own question, Shlomit.  Those are InDesign ""presets ", unrelated to the bridge."

    In Bridge, you can create presets Page and set "quality" (BOM bridge) of the PDF file.  See the images below.

    In addition, you can still edit and resave a PDF in Acrobat.

    It's always a good idea to read the documentation, consult the help files and explore the application.

  • Assistant Contact sheet print file names display problem

    In Windows XP, I could select a group of images and print a Board-contact via the Photo Printing Wizard.  File names were centered under the picture and WRAPPED when the name of the file has been long.

    In Windows Vista, it works, EXCEPT that file names are centered and TRUNCATED.  This isn't the desired behavior.  Y at - there a fix, or workaround or alternative solution?  (In addition to copying the files back to a XP machine?)

    Thanks in advance!
    BarbaraC Barbara Crane

    Hello BarbaraC,

    Try the following link to see if it will display full of names of files without truncating them.  I don't think that the result you're looking for in Vista is possible.  Everything I read indicates that Microsoft truncates file names to get under the tile.

  • Assistant printing photographs on Vista does not give me the option to print contact sheets

    The picture on my Vista Print Wizard does not give me the ability to print contact, like my old XP version sheets where. Any way to change/upgrade/downgrade or else return this option? I really need to be able to print photos contact sheets. Thank you!

    The Print Wizard offers other models?
    4 x 6, 5 x 7, 8 x 10?

    Is it possible that the default paper size in your printer
    preferences has been replaced by a smaller size... 4 x 6
    for example? If this is the case... it will remove the largest
    models from the Print Wizard.

    To find the missing models... go to control panel
    and access your printer preferences to change
    the default size of the paper letter (8 x 10). Look carefully,
    There may be more than one Panel that displays by default
    paper size.
