Grouping a Photo and 3 Text Boxes

[Skeezix]

I am using Photoshop version 7 to make business cards. Each card is 2"x3.5" and there are 10 cards per sheet of paper. I am familiar with version 7 since I got it over 20 years ago.

The first card has a small photo, a name, a phone number, and an email address. I have positioned those objects exactly where I need them in the top left-hand corner of the page.




My question is can I somehow group those 4 objects and then move the group over to the next card location? Then repeat the operation for each of the remaining business cards? If so, can somebody tell me where I can find instructions to do this?

Thank you

Assuming that each is on a seperate layer, group these layers so that they all can be moved together. This video HERE should help.

Cheers.

You say objects. Do you mean layers? Are each of these "objects" on their own layers? Is the photo on it's own layer? Is the "Name" on it's own layer? Is the "Phone Number" on it's own layer? Is the "Email Addy" on it's own layer? If so, just group the layers, duplicate the group, and move it to it's new position on the sheet. Then change the info, duplicate and move. Repeat this until your have all 10 positions populated.

Template with one card position populated.


Card 1 layers are in a group.


Duplicate the group using Command + J
Move the duplicated group using the Move Tool, to it's new position.


Layers panel with new (duplicated) group.


You can now change the photo and information in the new group as well as renaming the group.
