smartcard Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) I want to create a image file with six passport photos on a 4x6 photo print page. To do that I was asked to do the following: take a photo yourself, crop it down to a 2x2 square, then copy and paste this into a 2 by 3 tile pattern (4x6 in. canvas size). You now have them print out a 4x6 photo I don't know how to "tile pattern" How can I do this in Paint.net Edited October 30, 2011 by smartcard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAND33P Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I would just get the line tool and draw out a template for all the pics to go, make sure your canvas size is all ready aswell. Im sure theres a grid render that could help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowman Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) If you need 6 copies, then make the size of the canvas as this: Crop your photo to a squire according to the passport photo guidelines Make sure the Resolution to be at least 150 ( I think this resolution is accepted in USA) In the Pixel Size: For width put X*3 For Height put X*2 X=the width/Height of your photo after the crop. In the print Size: For width put 6 For height put 4 Then paste your photo to a new transparent layer, duplicate it 5 times (total photo layers=5) then align them whiten the canvas by Align Object plugin Flatten and print Edited October 30, 2011 by yellowman Quote My GalleryMy YouTube Channel "PDN Tutorials" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smartcard Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 In the Pixel Size: For width put X*3 For Height put X*2 X=the width/Height of your photo after the crop. In the print Size: For width put 6 For height put 4 Thanks for the guide, I did the following: Pixel size Width : 3.5cm X 3 = 10.5 it is not taking, it is changing to 11 instead of 10.5 Height : 4.5cm X 2 = 9 Then when I change the print Size, the Pixel size is automatically changing.

yellowman Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I know it is a little confusing when it comes to set the resolution, Don't worry about the pixel size, just make sure in the final canvas the Print Size is 6 x 4 inches with Resolution of 150 or more.
