Need to print a page of thumbnail pics...is it possible?

I'm really hoping someone can help.
I am teaching a class tomorrow and have 15 images scanned and printed off to use as visual aids.

I re-sized them all and have printed them no problem. However, as I am being assessed, I also have to give a copy of all my materials to the assessor. I really don't want to have to print off another copy of all 15 images, and have been trying to work out how to print a page showing all my images as thumbnails.

It is Microsoft Office Manager that I was using to re-size and edit them.

I would really appreciate any help. I need to have it ready this evening if possible, so I can print them off before my class in the morning.

TIA.

    One way is to open a Word document, then use insert, insert picture and use the cursor to resize if needed. Then use enter or the space bar to put a gap between the picture just inserted and the flashing cursor, then repeat to add another picture, and so on

    If you need to alter the size of any picture, just click it

    You have all the pics in one folder? If not, make a new folder and take a copy of each one into this folder.

    Select all with Ctrl+A

    Right-click on one of them, and select Print from the sub menu. This should open the Photo Printing Wizard - the Layout Selection screen allows you to select multiple images on one sheet. You don't even need to resize them

    This works for Win XP - maybe moved on for the recent OS's, but can't be that different

    Thank you very much.
    One problem, however. I have put them all in one folder, got as far as opening photo printing wizard. I can't print them at home as I can't connect to the printer using this PC (long story). Is there any way I can save them all on the one page, so that I can just print it off when I go into college tomorrow? I only have a very short time in the morning to be able to print before my class. Can I save them in this format onto my flashdisc? I won't have time to faff around with them then.

    Copy them to a CD, or your USB drive. As long as you have Windoze machines at work, same process.

    Do you have a PC that does connect to the printer? Copy them to that PC and print from there.

    Another option is to attach the file to an email if you have a spare account, then use the other PC in the morning to open it and print

    With the photo wizard, have you got print to file as an option?

    My Pc did connect, so we usually did that. The power cable has snapped completely so Can't use it at all now!

    Looks like it will just send the whole file with all the individual pics as an email attachment. I have them all on flashdisc anyway. I juat want them all ready to print off on one page IYKWIM.

    You would be able to send the Word document as an attachment

    No need to paste /re-size etc

    Santer: Just re-read your post from the start of thread and managed to do it! Thank you so much. Only problem is, I managed to lose the bl**dy thing as I was saving it. But at least I now know it is do-able, so will just do it all over again.
