For most of the ten years that I've been digital in my commercial studio I've worked mainly on PC's. Last year i purchased a Macbook Pro for field use and have been extremely satisfied with it. I'm now thinking of purchasing a new Mac for my studio work and image processing and need advice on a high quality contact generating / printing software. On the PC I ran Compupic for down and dirty contacts when time was more important than quality and for very high quality I use Qimage. The only features I use in both are the contact or custom size printing feature not the image editing. Qimage is a very high quality RIP type software that is a little slow but makes exceptional images of varying sizes on the same sheet or paper. It also makes stunning custom contact sheets.
I will be running OS 10.5 and can go to Boot Camp or another app that will allow windows xp to run on the mac but I would rather stay in the OS X environment if possible.
I know Photoshop makes contacts under automate but the quality is only OK, speed is slow and placement of the images is poor with wide spacing between rows.
Anyone have a good app that will run in OS X Leopard and make beautiful contacts and have custom sizing?
Thanks!
