Regular printing: To print a single picture select its thumbnail in the Gallery window and choose Print Selected Picture(s) from the File menu. To print a group of pictures select the pictures in the Gallery window (hold down the command key to select more than one picture) then choose Print Selected Picture(s) from the File menu. To print all photos currently displayed in the Gallery window choose Print All Pictures from the File menu. TIP: When printing a group of pictures or all pictures you may be able to choose layout options (if your printer supports them) in the print settings dialog, allowing you to print multiple images on a page. | ||

Creating and printing a Collage Layout: TIP: Clicking on a placed image activates the image and brings it to the top of any overlapped images. You can tell which image is currently activated because the "x" resizing box will be attached to its lower, right corner. To remove a picture, activate it by clicking on it. Then press the Command + Delete keys. You can adjust the transparency of the currently active image by moving the Transparency slider. NOTE: Do not change the page orientation in the Page Setup dialog to print a landscape layout. Photologist takes care of this for you. Using an existing Layout Template: Use the Layout popup menu to select your prefered layout template. To add a picture to a layout drag its thumbnail from the list to a rectangle in the layout area. Pictures are automatically oriented vertically or horizontally, depending on the orientation of the rectangle on which you drop them. To remove a picture Option-click on the picture in the layout area. If you check the "Use for all" checkbox dropping a picture on any rectangle in the layout area will place the picture in all of the rectangles. TIP: By listing different albums and/or folders you can take pictures from several sources and put them together on one page. Use the Save Layout or Print Layout menu items from the File menu to save or print your layout. To delete a layout use the popup menu to select it and then click the Delete Layout button. Using the Layout Template Maker to create a new template: Add and arrange as many items as you want. To remove a picture region item click on it to make it the active item. (You can tell when an item is active because the little "x" handle will be attached to its bottom, right corner.) Whenever an item is activated, it can be removed by pressing the Command + Delete keys. When you have completed adding and arranging picture region items click the Save button to save your new layout. To use your layout open the Layout Templates window and select it in the popup menu. NOTE: When creating a new layout template it is important to keep in mind that pictures will always be scaled to fit into the picture region items you place on a layout. Therefore, it is best to keep the length to width ratio of the picture region items similar to the length to width ratio of the pictures you will be using in the layout. Printing Contact Sheets:
