Does anyone know if you can make contact sheets in Lightroom? I'd really like to be able to make them and then export them as JPG, upload to smugmug, and order prints from there to send to the client. I know how to do contact sheets in Adobe Photoshop CS2, but I'd prefer to be able to do it in Lightroom if this is possible.

    Yes you can! But you'll need version 2.0 to save out to a JPEG.

    Select the images, go to print module. Pick (or make) a template that defines the number of rows and columns for the proof sheet. Add text from Metadata if so desired. In Print TO, select JPEG.
