I would like to see a possibility for equal image sizes for images in portrait and landscape orientation on printed contact sheets.
Currently they have different sizes and not even the image height is the same. This looks very ugly and if contact sheets are to be shown to a client, they should at least have some graphic appeal.

They all scale to fit into the same sized box.  How about you draw something up in Photoshop and post a JPEG of what you're looking for?

Here is a screenshot of the settings and the resulting contact sheet. OS X 10.5.3 printed to PDF.

Oh, and while we're at it: having the possibility to change Page Margins from left/right to inner/outer for odd/even pages for printing a dual spread layout (proof books) would be fantastic!!  ;D

Please post an image of what you want it to look like.  Not images of what it looks like now.

Thanks,

Sorry!

I  misunderstood your request.

Here is how I'd like it to look. All columns centered horizontally, all rows centered vertically and all images the same width/height.

(margins are not set nicely, this is all just moved in Photoshop ...)
