Hi all.
Many thanks in advance for anybody who can crack this little puzzle for me. I'll preface the query by stating that, yes, I've spent a good while searching for a solution on this message board, but perhaps my terminology wasn't specific enough.
Anyway:
I am an independent perfumer and I use GIMP (v2.8) to print my pre-designed JPEG labels for a regular 50ml bottle to specific dimensions, usually 12.5cm by 6.5cm. It works brilliantly.
I have recently undertaken a request to manufacture 250 x 2ml sample-size atomisers for a wedding. The required dimensions for these labels are 3cm x 0.75cm. That's fine - BUT:
How can I tile an A4 page with the labels at those dimensions? I can print one per page - like I do with the regular, larger labels - but at such tiny dimensions as 3cm x 0.75cm, one per page would be a terible waste of paper.
Any clues? Help would be much appreciated, guys! If it helps, I use stickyback photo paper for all my labels - I simply use a paper guillotine to cut them out.
