Images in layout

Hi All,
I am floundering and looking for some help. My thanks in advance.
I want to generate a 'template' for producing a series of 11x17" printouts for a publication.
I have a series of already generated jpegs (1.jpg, 2.jpg and 3.jpg for example), and I want these to appear on the top of the page. Below them I want to put in place some plots of data that I have.
I was hoping I could use subplot but it doesn't handle images the way I need. Does anyone have any advice or thoughts?
Thanks, Matt

I think you'd have to use ActiveX to have MATLAB drive Word. Do you know how to use ActiveX to have one program control another one? You should be able to find examples here and in the newsgroup where I posted MATLAB code that uses ActiveX to control Excel.

I do not see any reference to Word in the original question?
You're right. I guess I just assumed that he'd be using Word for his publication. He can use whatever program he wants but it sounds like he was wanting MATLAB to do the layout in some word processing program, as opposed to, say, just calling up his jpegs into Photoshop and printing the ONLY the images from Photoshop, which he wouldn't be asking here about of course.
I am not adverse to having Word be the final destination, but I am not all-in for it either. Was long as I can print an 11x17 sheet with these on there, I am happy
If all you want to do is print them, why not just use some photo package or even the built-in operating system commands to print a file?

Would the "montage()" function be of help to you?

montage would - but from my precursory look, does not look as though it would handle an already made jpeg. Much like other routines - e.g., subplot - it appears to want figure files. I have not had any luck getting a jpeg into a figure properly.

I have been able to pull together a few things to make this work:
imread
imdisp
then use montagefigures to pull together (thanks Image Analyst for pointing me towards montage

Montage can take the filenames directly, as a cell array like you'd get from dir(). No need to use imread or imdisp if you don't want to.
