Printing A6 cards from PSP6 on Epson printer

Post by CazDPhotos »

Hi, I want to print A6 cards, (A5 size paper), but cannot get any template to fit the page. I set my Epson printer to paper size A5, as that is what size it is going into the printer. I cannot find a template that fits this properly, to put the picture on half the page and have the other half with some copyright text.

Can anyone save me a lot of ink and heartache? :?

For what it's worth I skip PSP and Epson for control of printing and use QImage. QImage has many options for controlling printing. You may like to download the trial and give it a go.

Again - for what it's worth - I would probably use Microsoft Word for a simple job like that.

Try putting it in a zip file before attaching it, Jean-Luc.

Yes... but I wonder why a PaintShop Pro forum refuses to receive original psp files !
And I think .exe files embedded in a zip file are not accepted on this forum.

.exe files embedded in zips do not present the same as PSPScript files. PSPScript files are just text files and so won't show up as a zip with an exe in it. So a pspscript file embedded in a zip is just fine. We often distribute them that way on here.
