I have always used BreezeBrowser Pro for creating my contact prints to A4 size. I then print these off double sided into a book. Breeze Browser does this job really quick puts the image number underneath each image and numbers the bottom of each page.
I have now moved over to Macs and BBPro is PC only.

So I am wanting to create contact sheets as above. I have tried CS3 but it takes ages, Lightroom doesn't offer the print to file facility.

What do you use, how do you do it, and how quick is it.

This is the one thing now that's slowing my workflow down. I did think of exporting a small image from Lightroom and then creating a contact sheet in CS3, the thinking that if the images are smaller it might run quicker, but I don't want to go to the hassle if there is a better way.

I'm running a Mac Pro quad core.

Thanks in anticipation,
Carl

Thanks Aytch, had a look at that thread, but it doesn't really answer what i'm looking for, most of the products are PC based. I've tried looking at the image buddy but can't get that site up.

The newest version of the Proof Magazine setup that I posted on there is for Mac. I use it on my Mac and I'm done in about an hour depending on how many images I have.
