I have a job coming up where I need to print out some contact sheets for the customers.

I need three sizes on an A4 size paper. 1 large, 1 medium and 2 smaller images. (This can be flexible but I need three sizes)

Is there a program I can use to create a contact sheet?

I have tried LR 2.2 and it quite good but their templates only have 2 size sheets, is it hard to create my own in LR?

I would like to be able to rotate the images to 'fit' better to the page.

I have CS3 also.
 
It is pretty easy to create a custom template in LR, or you can search for someone who has already done this.

Thinking about it I'm sure there was something similar mentioned on the Lightroom Killer Tips Blog recently...
 
You could take one of the current "picture package layouts and modify that. However it's dead easy to make up packages in Lightroom, Don't forget though to make sure you have the picture package option selected
 
I'm sure you'll get lots of ways to do this. I use Qimage for most of my printing, this will easily let you print ' mixed' sheets.

Has lots of other advantages too, although the interface is a bit idiosyncratic.

Photoshop also has picture package (in bridge in CS4) Wayne
 
Thanks all, I did not know there was a picture package in LR, it is now a breeze to use.
