    Hi folks, im not even sure how to explain this so ill just tell the result i am after and im sure somone will know where to point me...

    Im trying to get four (4) copies of an image on to the same A4 page, arranged as the red rectangles are in the picture below.....

    http://www.picvalley.net/v.php?p=u/2813/179199312321378551541251240261sC2tS3AbpJBl4dHbH13V.BMP



    As im sure you can tell, Im am an absolute n00b with anything in this department, i couldnt even get all the rectangles the same using paint :(

    So hopefully ther is an app' that i can just throw my image into and it will resize them and arrange them to a pre arranged tem[plate, namely a layout like the one in the pic.

    If any more info is needed just ask, thanks Q

    Hi

    For some reason I cannot get your image from picvally to load at all, dunno whether its 64bit browser for not, tried Fx and same, may not like Windows 7.


    But failing not actually seening the image try Paint.net as its a good free alternative to Photoshop.

    OK managed loading Vista on another PC, and I see what you mean, you should be able to do that in Paint.net, or even MS Word and in Word by creating text boxes and copying inthe images into each box.

    Dunno what Windows version but in XP and Vista the Printer Wizard can do this IIRC, right click image and choose print and then choose 9x13 4 as in image below

    Thank you squire, i went with the doing it in "word" option, although i tried out that paint.net and it is quite nifty, being semi-competent in using paint, it felt quite familiar which is always good with a new app', i still have the fatal flaw of it all bores the $@#% out of me and i dread every time i have to get the slightest bit "creative", Gimme a virii ridden hdd to clean out an im happier tbh :|

    anyhoo, once again...thank you for the help, i doff my cap to you sir :p
