Yes there is ...

Download a copy of FastStone Viewer here:

http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm

and use their Create/Contact Sheet Builder.

AFAICT, there is no simple way of doing anywhere near as good a job using Adobe's highly expensive product, which does not have any kind of PRINT command ... The downloadable Contact Sheet plug-in is a joke when compared with the simplicity and elegance of FV's FREEWARE solution ...

Inexcusable, IMNSHO.

It's good and convenient to use. Thanks lots!

I am running Photoshop CS5 and Bridge CS5.1. In Bridge, my Output Workspace is blank and there is no Adobe Output Module available in the Startup Scripts. How do I fix this?

I am running Photoshop CS5.1 (12.1 (12.1x20110328 Re: Bridge Help | Create web galleries and PDFs with Adobe Output Module) x64) and Bridge CS5.1. I don't have the extended version. They were delivered and installed together (same disk) and when I check Photoshop, it tells me there are no updates available.  I am running them on a MacBook Pro 10.1, operating system MAC OS 10.7.5, processor speed: 2600 MHz, built-in memory: 8192 MB. It has Intel HD Graphics 4000 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M.

I found the following in the Photoshop System Information. I'm not sure it is relevant to my issue but I'm including it just in case.

Plug-ins that failed to load:

   Lighting Effects NO VERSION - 32-bit plug-in not supported in 64-bit - from the file “Lighting Effects.plugin”

   Send Video Preview to Device NO VERSION - 32-bit plug-in not supported in 64-bit - from the file “FireWire Export.plugin”

   Variations NO VERSION - 32-bit plug-in not supported in 64-bit - from the file “Variations.plugin”

   Video Preview NO VERSION - 32-bit plug-in not supported in 64-bit - from the file “FireWire Export.plugin”

Resetting preferences as outlined below did not resolve the problem.

I apologize if I'm not providing the information you need to help me. I'm not super tech savvy. I usually only know enough to be dangerous. Thanks for your help!

Plug-ins that failed to load:

It seems to me that something is wrong with your install. Maybe you did clone a former mac to install on this one? or copies old stuff to the new one. Don't know, it seems easy and quick but I prefer always a new install using a new computer or switching to a new system upgrade.

Lightning effects shows to be 32 bit while I think to know that Photoshop CS5 and CS5.5 are both 64 bit, however Bridge was turned to 64 bit in the CS6 version but that should not mater for you to use both applications from the same install disk (or download?)

And variations is something I tried to find in CS6 but can't find it there. I had long forgotten this feature that presented different previews and you could switch to color corrections and brightness (not sure) while looking at the result in the previews.

So I think you have some old material residing on your system. I would advice you to back up all custom settings (actions, tools, workspaces etc. and keywords in Bridge) Then do a search for the Adobe Cleaner tool :

http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html?promoid=GYTAU

(don't know this links work for you but you can find it easy with google).

Read the instructions carefully and follow this using the official uninstaller that came with PS (see application folder). Also be sure to have your serial number and AdobeID present and while an activation of PS is for the computer maybe for security first deactivate before uninstall.

I checked the version I installed and it says it is for both 32 and 64 bit but I still have the error messages previously identified.

Glad it worked for you. PSCS5 changed from 32 bit to 64 bit but Bridge did get this transition per CS6. The message for plug ins are AFAIK PS related and there will be some setting or folder with this old plug ins still residing on your system.

An uninstall and clean tool run does get rid of most preference related stuff but is does not delete all things from older or latest install. I also use PS for photo editing but it is long ago I used third party plug ins. There are a few locations to look in. Adobe PSCS5 in the Application folder has a plug in folder but newly installed this does not contain your plug ins from the warning message (but for security check it). But on root level there is also a folder called Library. The path for this is computer (not your user account) / library / application support / Adobe / Plug in. In this location should be a folder called CS5 (version you are using) and check if here is a folder with the plug ins from the warning message. If so manual remove this from the library (e.g. to the desktop). Beware, in 'file formats' is the ACR raw plug in located. Just use logic, before searching quit PS and Bridge and remove 1 item to test. Restart and if it does not help quit PS and Bridge and replace the item in the same location.

If removing helps and everything is working again then trash the removed items.

NO WATERMARKS USING WEB GALLERY?!

Why can't you add watermarks any more?!?

I'm now using Photoshop CS6 and Bridge. In previous versions I used to create web gallerries for clients to review images. There was a function in the Web Gallery called "Security" that let you watermark all of the images with text or an image. So, as I created a web gallery of hundreds of images, I could automatically protect them with a copyright notice.

This is gone apparently  in CS6. Why?! It was just about the most useful tool in the Web Gallery!

Am I missing something here, or has this been moved somewhere totally obvious? I've been searching for a frustrated 45 minutes to no avail

Hi,

Is there a way to get the web gallery to pre-load photos? I was hoping I wouldn't need to write any javascript in order to get such a feature. It would really improve the browsing experience for my clients / family, as they all live in far away places.

The javascript code pasted OK except that it stripped out the head and /head tags and the script and /script tags. Basically, the code has to be in the head section of the SubPage.htm template, and the code has to be enclosed in the usual script /script tags.

It is based on an image preloading script from http://javascriptkit.com/script/script2/preloadimage.shtml. That script preloads all the images at once, and you have to paste in the image names manually, but it might be useful if you want to just preload all the images from the gallery's index.html page and don't mind pasting in all the image names yourself. The javascriptkit.com site has two other image preloading scripts. Both of them use an introductory page to preload all the images, and they create a spiffy progress bar to let you know how long it will take. One of them makes you paste in the image names manually, but the other uses .php to read the image names from a directory.

I don't seem to see this in the output tab, but I'm wondering if there is a way to include links that will allow people to download some or all of my photos from the gallery.

Can anybody help with this?
