Resizing problem

Hello,
I wonder if any one can help. I have just upgraded to photoshop CS4 and seem to be having a problem when resizing. I have just completed a school photo shoot and one of the things that I offered parents was a 4-up image. 4 images on an A5 print, each photo of which there are 4 are probably big enough to be placed in a wallet.

However, when I create a new document of an A5 size, then move and use transform to size the image down (have to do this 4 times) I get terrible pixelation at the printing stage. How can I stop this and what am I doing wrong?

All help is much appreciated
Tracy

Hi and welcome

Wouldn't you be better making a contact sheet? That way you can add as many photo's as you need on to a sheet.

It can usually be found in File - Automate - Contact Sheet II

If it isn't there, it can be found in the goodies section on the Photoshop CS4 Disc. Copy it into the plug in folder.

Hopr that all makes sense
