entation of the picture. If they differ, the picture is rotatedby 90˚ counter-clockwise. Then, photoprint computes the width the picture wouldhaveifitwasscaledbyafactor shsothatitsheight were exactly the height of the print slot. This width is called the scaled width of the picture. photoprint also computes the height the picture would have if it was scaledbyafactor swsothatitswidthbecomesexactlythe width of the print slot. This height is called the scaled height of thepicture. Ifthescaledwidthofthepictureislargerthanthe width of the print slot, photoprint scales the picture by shandtrimsitsleftandrightedgesbyhalfthedifference betweenthe scaledwidthand thewidthof theslot. Ifthescaledheightofthepictureislargerthanthe height of the print slot, photoprintscales the picture by sw and trims its top and bottom edges by half the difference betweenthe scaled height and the heightof the slot. In both cases, the picture fills the print slot, but it iscropped,as shown infigure 8. However, when the fullpictures option is on, photoprint uses the smaller of sh and sw so that the picture fits entirely inside the print slot, between equal whitebands to fill theslot. PrintingDigitalPhotographswithL ATEX Contactsheets Contact sheets are a special case in which photoprint reserves space at the top of the page to display the title of the contact sheet and the picture range (thereare20picturesoneachpageofacontactsheet). It also reserves space between the rows of pictures to displaytheirnames, indicesand dateif available.

This is whyIstartedwritingthe photoprintdocumentclass(everybodyknowsthatitismucheasiertodevelopinLATEX than inJava ...) However, the Java Photoprint application is still here and allows choosing pictures to print and to set the number of copies of each. So I added a menu item to save the current selection of pictures to a file whose default name is... photoprint.job.
