Hi, another technical question I'm afraid. I've got my photo on Photoshop almost ready to print out for a reference. However, I'm stuck on two things:
1: how on earth do I add a grid to the photo and print it with the grid on??
2: I have watched marks video on how to make the print the same size as the paper but it won't allow me to draw the boxes over the area I want. Can anybody help with this please?
Many thanks

I agree, any graphics program or app can do layers. So dropping the photo into a lower layer and reducing opacity to show both is easy. Can also layer a colour tone, a perspective assist or a grid if you wish.
To improve observation and eye/hand coordination this is the simplest, photo can be removed and drawing resized for further work.
While studying the Reilly method I used a two layer technique. In progress here, but plenty of scope for playing around with infinite undo.
These were done on Procreate but any app should work.
