[Homebrew_PCBs] Image editing for printing

2005-11-20 by Stefan Trethan

Hi,

this is kind of off topic on topic.

I need a recommendation for a FREE image editing software that i can use  
to copy multiple TIFF images together into one and print them.
What i wanna do is export all views of a PCB (top/bot/legends) and print  
them on one sheet of paper. I can only get them separately on tiff images.  
So all the software needs to be able to do is copy and paste selection.

I've looked at some, and was badly disappointed. the trial of PSP is SLOW  
like a snail, really, really slow, on a ghz machine. I dug out a old  
version 6, and it goes really fast, but as it is only a trial it won't  
help me more than a month.


So, if anyone knows a suitable software, please tell.

I'll go back now to trying to print to scale. I'm pulling my hair out  
here, the software doesn't seem to understand what to scale means. It  
almost makes me ignore the wasted paper and print right out of my PCB  
software again, one by one.
