Wow! Such a great looking layout. I’m going to have to give this a try 🙂

Hi Regina,

I suspect you are on Windows? Since this layout is just going to be saved out as a JPG, try this:

in the Print Job panel, change the Print To option to JPEG File, then an option appears in that same panel called Custom File Dimensions. Check the Custom File Dimensions box to enable it, then enter 12 x 12 for the size. Then follow the rest of Scott’s tutorial.

This way you can avoid setting up a custom print size because you won’t involve the printer at all.

In reply to Ron. Hi, Ron. I am using the very latest version of Lightroom Classic, on an iMac running Catalina as well. As you sure you launched Classic?

In reply to Ron. Hi Ron, You can save it all as a single JPG. Scott explains how to do that at the very end of the tutorial (after the last image).

Back at you with a mea culpa. I see that it all works once you choose /Contact Sheet as the VERY 1st thing to do…..then all the rest follows. Always good to start at the start.

I was hoping to save the resulting 9 shot collection as a sole jpeg to sendoff to PosterJack bugs I see that is not possible. Too bad, so sad.

Thanks.

Very disappointing. I am using iMac Catalina with newest LRC version. Appears you are using outdated version of LRC. The instructions you have provided DO NOT work on the newest version of LRC. Too bad, was looking forward to completing this project.

Happy to help! 🙂

The Custom File Dimensions option works the same on both platforms, so showing it that way will save you from having to get a Windows machine. 😀

Once again – Rob for the win. I didn’t realize that difference. I’ve got to get a Windows machine (wink). Thanks, Rob.
