Title: Contact Sheet Question
Post by: picsfor on October 01, 2009, 01:28:07 AM
I know Lightroom can print out a contact sheet but i'm trying to find out if it can create a single file that, when viewed, is viewed on the screen like a contact sheet.

I feel sure it can and i've probably spent so much time looking at various help forums etc that i've become blind to the answer - if it possible.

Any suggestions welcome,

Thanks.

You could make a pdf file of the contact sheet and view that on the screen.

If you don't have a pdf maker download PrimoPDF - it's free and works very well.  It effectively installs a printer so you just select it when you print out any document at all and it'll turn it into a PDF file.

Hi Andrew,

When you've made up your contact sheet if you go to File>export you can export the sheet to any designated folder that you  have set up.

That's how I've done it in the past.

Thanks for those suggestions.

As i said - i've probably spent so much time looking at the trees - i can't see the woods!

Dig around in the help files a bit and you'll see you can rate things as pdf's from within lightroom.
