Study Notes
-
A contact sheet is a file (PDF, JP EG, PNG, or other image file) you create with Photoshop that contains thumbnail references for all the images in a given folder.
-
You can use contact sheets for a number of tasks, such as sending clients a list of images for approval, archiving, or just organizing your pictures visually rather than with long filenames.
-
All the images for a contact sheet must be placed in the same folder in order for Photoshop to "know" what should be added to the sheet.
-
You should see your folder's name now listed under Document.
-
Under Thumbnails, decide how you want your images arranged on the page. Choose across first for Place. Type in 3 for columns and 2 for rows.
-
Select the Use Filename as Caption option to label each image based on its file name.
-
Change the pt size to 14.
-
Click OK and Photoshop will create your contact sheet.
-
Notice how Photoshop created 2 contact sheets. We chose 3 columns by 2 rows for a total of 6 pictures on one page. The folder you used has 12 pictures and it looks like there is lots of space on this page.
-
Take a look at the layers panel. Recall the previous contact sheet was just one flat image. But this contact sheet kept all the layers from the original folder.
-
Now you are going to re-create the contact sheet, but our settings will allow for us to fit all the images on only one sheet. Click on File, Automate, then Contact Sheet II again.
-
This time use the settings you see to the right. The folder should appear as the same, if not change it. Make sure Flatten All Layers is NOT checked this time.
-
Type in 4 columns and 3 rows so all 12 images fit on one page this time.
-
Click OK and Photoshop will create your contact sheet as a Photoshop file you can modify.
-
You can easily make changes to the text, background, or color of your photos in Photoshop.
-
You can create a contact sheet with 3 rows and 3 columns to organize your photos.
-
You can add your name to the top of the contact sheet and submit it to your teacher.
-
