All very new to me so I followed along with Dave but each time I tried to make the contact sheet my template design was applied to the first sheet only – what am I doing wrong ??

For the contact sheet to work with multiple pages you must place any design, logo etc on the Master Page. If you create a facing page document, there will be 2 master pages and you must put your “stuff” on both the left and right hand master page (that’s why I usually don’t use facing pages)

Dave, I have Adobe Photoshop cs3 extended and Indesign cs3 installed on my machine. However in Bridge I don’t have an option listed to make an Idesign contact sheet. It’s like Bridge doesn’t know Indesign exist.
Hope you can help me with this.
Thanks!!!

Dave That was awesome, but do you know of a way to take an InDesign document with placed images already placed and have captions added? We used to use a plugin called Label it to accomplish this, but I was hoping with CS4, something similar is out there.

Thanks again for the video!
