importing photos for montage	Can't Post

Ever since I upgraded to PP 1.5 when I import photos I have to resize just about every one. Is there a setting that I need to adjust to avoid all of this resizing?

I am not familiar with PP, but what you could do is run a auto batch to resize all your photos at once in photoshop to the size you need. It works very well.

Go to EDIT>PREFERENCES>GENERAL...

Check the box, "Default scale to frame size".

You have to do this before you import your pictures. (Yeah, I know it's stupid).

Thanks RT that sounds a lot easier (and yes - stupid).

RT....I use Adobe Photoshop7 and don't see this option. Are you referring to the CS version?

Hi Linda,

Actually, I believe RT is over in Premiere now referring to the preferences (not Photoshop)
