Q&A: Printing a Contact Sheet
My boss takes pictures of a job site and downloads them to the office computer. From there, we would like to use a software package to print all of the pictures on a single page, along with titles (the titles would be the file names). It would be nice if the software also did touch-ups, but that's not absolutely necessary. Do you have a suggestion?

I've got just the thing for you. My favorite inexpensive image editor, Paint Shop Pro 7, available for about $90, does exactly what you need. Get a trial version or buy a copy.
Start Paint Shop Pro and choose Browse from the File menu. The Browse window will appear and show you image thumbnails by folder. Surf to the folder you want to print and then choose Print from the File menu. You'll get a "contact sheet" of the images in the folder, along with all of the file names. It's a handy feature that most people don't even know is there.
Send your questions to question@bydavejohnson.com, and please be sure to let me know where you're from.
