17 free Print templates for Lightroom

Written by on December 21, 2012 in Print templates - 24 Comments

I’ve never been a fan of the included print-templates in Lightroom. In fact, most of the software I’ve tried with similar templates doesn’t meet my demands. Using Print templates in Lightroom is perfect when you want to create collages of photos. The best is that you can select if you want to print them or save the prints as a file on your computer. Print to file (JPEG) is perfect when you want to create collages for your blog or webpage.

How to install Print Templates into Lightroom

Installing Print Templates into Lightroom is as easy as it is to install presets. Just open the Print module in LR and right click on “User templates” and select “Import”.

Check out these 17 A4 Print Templates for Lightroom that I made earlier this week. After you’ve downloaded them, please let me know what you think of them.

Update 2013-01-09: Don’t miss the US-letter version that can be downloaded from here.

    Can’t get these to import properly. Rather than shown, the boxes appear left justified rather than centred within the page and the templates with larger numbers of cells have the cells overlapped. Don’t understand what is wrong. Using LR 4.3.

    Hi thebabycub.
    Please make sure you have set your page format to A4-size since these print-templates are made for this size.
    Thanks

    Pierre, thank you so much for this generous gift! I am new to LR, but I was able to successfully import them! A Christmas miracle for sure! I appreciated your instructions on how to do that. I am excited to try these out. You are right, I think I am going to love them! :)

    Any sized for North Americans? Unfortunately Canada follows the US in paper sizing.

  10. Pierre December 22, 2012 at 3:05 pm ·

    Hi Don,
    Will probably create a version for you “Letter”-folks later. ;-)
    Thanks!

    Hi Pierre,
    Thanks for your generosity, these templates will be very handy and save me some time too!! I do have one question, how can I export the layout as a page to post on the web?
    I’d like to wish you and everyone that reads this blog a Healthy, Happy and Prosperous 2013.
    Namaste’
    Bob

    Hi Bob,
    Instead of printing The layout to a printer you can select “to jpeg file”.

    Wish you a happy new 2013!
    Thanks,
    Pierre

    Thanks Pierre,
    Best Wishes to you for a Happy, Healthy, Prosperous 2013

    Hi again Don,
    Just wanted to let you know that the US letter sized version now is available for download here: 17 US Letter print templates

    Thanks,

    hi Pierre,

    i’m doing something wrong. i imported the A4 printer presets, and i’m actually using A4 sized paper, but none of the presets will either display the photos in the cells, or light up the Print button for printing. I’ve selected photos in the Filmstrip, of course. i’m stumped! thanks and take care.

  17. Pierre January 9, 2013 at 8:08 pm ·

    Hi MJ Klein,
    I’ve made these templates very loose, meaning you just have to drag and drop photos from the filmstrip to each frame in the template.
    This way it’s easy to place them exactly were you want them. :-)

    Tip: If you hold down CTRL/CMD you can reposition a photo within a frame.

    Thanks,
    Pierre

    thanks Pierre! i knew it was something i was not getting, lol.

    Love it! Just came across these today and will certainly be giving them a try. I think they will work great for showing the before and after of shots when talking about post production as well as a nice story board layout.

    Thanks for taking the time to create and share these. Appreciate it.

    I don’t know what’s going on =/ I downloaded them but when I go to import them into LR it says it is the wrong format. (.zip) Any suggestions? Thank you

  21. Pierre January 26, 2013 at 6:17 pm ·

    Hi Dee,
    You need to extract the .zip file first.
    Simply double-click it to see if it works (if not let me know).

    Thanks Pierre,
    Great job! I was looking for something that does this, cause the templates that come with Lr aren’t really handy. Unfortunately, I experience the same problem as thebabycub above. The frames stick to upper left corner leaving a double margin to the right and to the bottom. How can I make them being centered horizontally and vertically? I reassured myself that the paper format is A4 (PDF printer). Anything else I should check for?
    Thanks again.

    Hello, I’m using LR since a few months, still have to learn a lot. Your preset print templates will very helpful to create different prints!

    thanks!!
