Hey,

I have a lot of stock images and I would like to print thumbnails of these images on paper (or PDF). Does anyone know of a program (freeware or shareware) which allows me to do this?

Thanx in advance!

It's not freeware or shareware, but I have found Thumbs Plus to be completely indespensable.

It does so many essential things, including a variety of methods for printing contact sheets for any number of images of any file type.

Can't say enough good things about this app.

Well it's not free, but if you happen to have Photoshop 6 or 7, you could uses it's contact sheet script. It is located under automate in the file menu.

There is a light version of adobe album that's free but I don't know it's limitations.

Once again Irfanview is your friend. The program can make html pages from the thumbnails too....

ImageMagick will do this.

Thanx everyone,

I've tried all programs you mentioned in your replies. I love Thumbsplus, but its kinda overkill in my situation, however I have convinced my boss to buy it so we can use it at work. I couldnt figure out how to do it in Image Magick, so I dropped this one.

Irfanview did a good job, but the way how Photoshop does it is what I need.

Thanx again.

I understand your having difficulty figuring out how to use ImageMagick. The documentation for it is very hard to understand.

It sounds like you have solved your problem. Just in case you or anyone else wants to try using ImageMagick to create thumbnails in the future the command you would use is

code:
mogrify -geometry 100x75 image.gif



This command will change the size of image.gif. Image.gif will have the same aspect ratio as before the transformation and will be no larger than 100 piexls across and 75 pixels down.

Since the command modifies your original image in place you should make a copy of your image and mogrify the copy.
