Default How can I import 200 pix into Word book and add book text?

Use a table with four cells to the page.
Create a label merge using this table as the label document
(http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm or
http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm ) for the data source
create a list of your files. The simplest way to do that is to use the
Printfolders utility that you can download from my web site. Open the
resulting list in Word and edit it so that you have a list that looks like
D:\My Documents\My Pictures\IMG_1394.JPG
D:\My Documents\My Pictures\IMG_1395.JPG
D:\My Documents\My Pictures\IMG_1396.JPG

Run replace \ with \\ to make the single slashes double thus

D:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\IMG_1394.JPG
D:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\IMG_1395.JPG
D:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\IMG_1396.JPG

Add a title row at the top eg Pictures thus

Pictures
D:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\IMG_1394.JPG
D:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\IMG_1395.JPG
D:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\IMG_1396.JPG

Select the whole lot then Table Insert Table, which will put each row in a
table cell. Save that as your data source.
You can then merge to the 'label' document e.g.

I have over 200 pictures in a group in Photoshop Elements 7. I want
to put them into a 150 page book with text content. I can export
them from PE to a file, but is there an easy way to move them and
arrange 1 to 4 pictures on a page with text?
Book will be printed at home and bound with plastic spine and home
produced covers.
