STEP 4

This will bring you back to the first palette, where you can change the settings of the size, resolution and color mode you want the contact sheet to be. Depending on how many images you have and what your settings are in the “Thumbnails” area, Photoshop will calculate how many pages will be needed.

STEP 5

When you are finished putting in your settings and hit “Ok”, Photoshop will create a new document, open each of the images, resize them and put them in the new document along with the filename of each image.
