You can then press Cmd or Ctrl E, select your destination folder or create one, select the JPG format from the drop down menu, and enter a generic name in the "Save As" dialogue box (img 01 will generate img01.jpg / img02.jpg /img03.jpg etc. Otherwise right-click the image and play with the options in the "Fitting" section of the menu (please comment if you need assistance with this) Make sure things look the way you want them to look. Place your image in the frame by first selecting it (the frame) and pressing Cmd or Ctrl D. Then create a frame (F keyboard shortcut) that will sit precisely above those frames. With the page tool, select these pages and move them below and to the left by giving them new coordinates (just like when creating the first row of cells/pages) The will be pushed to the right with the gap width preserved. Select those newly created pages and drag them back on top of the original five pages (cells). This will push the pages (cells) in a different section (below). This app icon looks similar to the color scheme of the Instagram app icon, but it features a 3x3. Once that's done, select all your pages in the Pages panel and drag and drop them on the small "Create New Page" icon next to the trash can at the bottom right corner of the Pages panel. Get PhotoSplit from the Google Play Store (Android) or App Store (iPhone or iPad). Insert 1 page after page 2.Īdjust this third cell's coordinates and repeat this process for the next two pages (to get five cells)

Then right click that second page in the Pages panel and select "Insert Pages." A dialogue box will appear. Select whichever anchor point and offset that second page to the right by the gap you want to have between them (so let's say a 3 inch cell & a quarter inch gap means you have to enter +.25 to the value that is already present in the x coordinates). You will then see the page's coordinates appear in the upper left corner of your screen (x, y and anchor points).

Once that's done, select the page (in that same Pages panel) and drag it slightly to the right until a bracket shape appears (just like this " ] " )Īfterwards, select the page tool (Shift+P by default) and click on that second page. Once your document is created, open the Pages panel, and from the flyout menu, uncheck "Allow document pages to shuffle". It still remains a popular choice for many, especially considering the profile grid displays posts in this ratio. I have no idea how this could be achieved either in Photoshop or in Illustrator but InDesign has a solution to your problem.Ĭreate a document with a custom size (the size of one of your cells) and uncheck the "facing pages" feature towards the top of the dialogue box. Square is the original format, which is well-known among all Instagram users.
