Printing with Templates in LR
« on: December 10, 2008, 04:13:06 am »

Hello everyone

I do almost all of my printing from LR, and have made lots of templates for different size prints.  For example, four 10x8 prints on paper 24x17.
I should just add that I am invariably using 24" rolls on an IPF6100 printer.

This has all been working well for months and for thousands of prints.

However, just yesterday, LR has started playing up.  When printing say two 10x8 prints on 24x9 paper, I am in the habit of moving the images around in the aperture before printing. This is because the original may have been a 12x8 crop, and I want to position the important bits to appear in the print.
Now, I find that when printed, LR has either repositioned the image in the frame, or just not heeded my alteration.
As far as I know I have not altered anything in LR.

Any suggestions?

Of course I realise that I could crop the image first, but sometimes I may print say 50 5x7 prints from 5x7.5 originals, and would rather just move the images around in the frame to show the important bits than have to crop them all.

I'm having the exact same problem - have you found a solution? Thanks!

Hi Rob

No solution yet.  I am so busy at the moment that I have not had time to look at other web resources for information.
It is very irritating though!
Had hoped that some of the boffins here might have a suggestion.
I will let you know if I come up with an answer.

Unfortunately, the latest 2.2 update does not fix this bug - I used this feature quite often, and now have to go back to Photoshop to create specific layouts.

Anyone else having this problem?
