Im about to throw this PC out the window. I am making business cards and would like to print multiple proofs on one page. The proofs are all different. I have seen automating picture package instructions on the web but when i do that i can only choose from a drop down list of pre set sizes. None of them are 2" by 3.5", they seem to be all set for.. well, photographs ie; 5x7 and 3x5 but im not exactly printing photographs in a standard sense. I would like to do something similar to Paintshop's Print Layout where all the open documents are listed on the left and you can drag and drop them onto a blank page and move them and resize them with ease. It is a difficult task to do in photoshop. I tried picture package 5x7 and then maybe i could resize them myself. That did not work. Isnt there a way to put "different" Files on one page in its native size wich can also be scaled? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

hello collardgreens,
you kind of described my solution, but I am not sure why it didn't work,
Did you?:
Open a new doc 8.5 x 11 inches at 300 dpi
make sure all your business cards are also 300 dpi
drag each business card into the blank doc and scale it to fit
arrange the business cards to taste in the printable doc, (8.5 x 11)
make sure everything is CMYK
If so this should do the trick _________________ For great Photoshop tutorials and freebies, check out www.iammrknowitall.com
