Contact sheet help

zekai · 5th April 2007

Hi guys, i have been using PS to make my contact sheets for the longest time.
Any other software that are free/ cheap that can produce equally good contact sheet.

I have too many terminals at my workplace and my co-worker need to manage many pictures as well as make contact sheet. she however does not need to do DI like me so i need to thnk of a cost effective and legal solution.

appreciate any help you guys can dispense.

For PC & Mac

ACDSee? Thumbs Plus? Both have the contact sheet function. The former is limited by up to 3000pix on the long side of the print, but the latter does not have that limitation, so if you print A4 or non-photographic sizes, it may be a better option.

My personal favourite; this is an image browser, but it has a contact sheet under its tools. Free for personal use. Send a donation if you find it handy

I'm surprised why it's still called contact sheet for digital. Shouldn't it be called index print or thumbnail print instead?
