Question:
I bought some of those Avery glossy photo postcardsthat come 2 to an 8.5 x 11 sheet (Avery #8389), andI've been going nuts trying to figure out how to printon them (aside from just tearing them up into theindividual postcards and printing them that way).

My problem is, I can make a template for them in MicrosoftWord, but Word doesn't seem to be able to import large(1200 dpi) TIF files. I'd rather print them from PaintShop Pro, anyway.

So here's my question (and obviously I'm new to PSP):how do you create a template--any template--where youknow exactly where the guidelines go, such that onlythe pictures will print, not the guidelines? Can thatbe done with layers, where you draw the lines on onelayer and print from a different one?

I don't especially like these Avery postcards, plus theywere expensive, so in the future I'd like to design myown greeting card and postcard templates of differentsizes. That's why I'd like generic instructions (pointme to a website, tutorial or whatever) for creating atemplate page that has guidelines on it, that can be savedand reused from one project to the next.

Answer: Paint shop pro doesn't work in project templatesIt uses gridlines and rulers not guidelines like other programs.you set gridlines so far apart in pixelspsp makes graphics and edits graphics it not a templateproject program. it good but doesn't work like the easier ones.It not like PI or adobe photo deluxeIn that respect If you only have one image per sheet, you can set the margins in "File/PageSetup" like most MS Applications. The image can be scaled to exactly whatyou are looking for. If you need multiple images on each sheet, you needto open all of them in PSP6, and then go to "File/Print Multiple Images".In the screen that appears, you can drag your images and size them as youwish. There is even a grid (dots) with "snap to" that can be set in inchesor centimeters. Be sure to choose the correct paper size before setting upthe format.When you have the images placed as you want, go to "File/Save Layout" Nexttime you want to use the same layout, open all the new images you plan touse. Go to "File/Print Multiple Images" and in that screen go to "File/OpenLayout". The original images will be on the layout. You can delete andreplace them with the new ones. If you need text, put it in an image witha white background and your favorite color text, and insert it like therest.
