A Job for Aperture?

Since I bought Aperture (now using 2.0) primarily for processing photos I take (mostly in RAW), I have not spent much time thinking about more general usage. Now I am helping, along with one other fellow, to edit about 1200 photos (JPEG) of historic family Bible pages, for genealogy purposes. Our job is to crop for later printing, and also to provide enhancements that will aid in transcription, and not simply printing of an image. Since he only has PS 7 on a PC, I think I would have greater flexibility with my software and equipment.
From past experience with old photos, more so than modern, I know a lot of tricks with Photoshop and Graphic Converter to make text in the images more readable. But that normally involves only a few images at a time -- not 1200, or even 600 if we divide up evenly.
With PS CS3, you can now open JPEGs as RAW and have the same adjustment sliders, for the most part, as with those that are in RAW. Aperture presents similar controls.
Objective is to have more than one version (different adjustments) of the photo of each page to maximize deciphering of aged handwriting, to then provide to those who will transcribe. Aperture would have some advantages in managing multiple versions, I would expect, but is there a significant work flow with Aperture vs what I would normally have done with Photoshop, one photo at a time? If so, how do I reap the most benefit?

For versioning, Aperture or LightRoom (which I'll ignore from here on) beat Photoshop hands down. Speed wise also opening and working on that many photos, Aperture with its versions is the answer. You could have three versions side by side for comparison very quickly, and make the exact same crop to each version. Finally you will not have 3 separate images for each image until final output. After giving images to the printer you can just delete them as you could always reproduce them in a heartbeat. Organization is also much simpler as you will not have all those hi-res space robbing copies of the same image all over the place.

A Good Reference for Aperture, Versions, File Names, Changing & Moving

I was wondering if there is a consensus on a good reference for understanding how Aperture handles files?
Versions and file names.
How do you change them in Aperture?
What happens if you change them in Finder?
Do I need versions? (can't I just us file names?)
What about moving the masters, or changing where there are located at in Finder?
Can I do that in Aperture?
Can I only do that in Finder?
Should I never do that in Finder?
The reason I'm looking for a good reference is because I haven't found one. The user guide (or manual) that comes with Aperture doesn't help with these issues. Search file name and nothing comes back.
I did get a copy Apple Pro Training Series book for Aperture 3. But I don't think it does a good job explaining how Aperture's file system works, especially in relation to Finder.
Rather than fill this forum with endless questions (which could be answered by reading the manual and using it the software) I'd like to get a better understanding, from a good source.
I've only used iPhoto for Mobile Publishing, ATV and now Photo Stream. I don't use it to organize my decades of photos. I don't like having all my photos inside a managed database, which I don't have to do with Aperture. I never understood why you'd want to change the name of a photo in iPhoto, when it never changes the file name. If you send it to someone, after you changed it's name, the other person gets the photo with the original (still in Finder) file name.
Thanks.

I never understood why you'd want to change the name of a photo in iPhoto, when it never changes the file name.
This may help or not but here goes.
There's a distinction to be made between files and the data they contain. The example I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune, some lyrics, recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. The file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
Similarly that Jpeg / tiff/ raw/ whatever is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. And along with that data comes opportunities: Metadata, for a start. Exif and IPTC contain vast amounts of information - some it very basic, like the date and time the shot was taken - some of it quite complex, like a lot of details of the settings used in the camera.
Aperture, iPhoto et al are all about the data and not the file. Import the file and forget about it. Process the image - crop it, fix red eye, run it through the whole gamut of tools in the App and the file never changes at all. Create multiple versions of the image. But there's still only one file. Name it. You name the photo - and that is an entry in the Exif or IPTC. The name of the photo has nothing to do with the name of the file. Because the file is just the tin for the beans.
Even when you export, unless you specifically choose to export the Master, you are exporting the processed Photo into a different container - that's why you can export Raw as Jpeg, or Jpeg as Tiff. Because the process of export just puts the image into a new container.
Basically, if you want to manage files you need to use a File Manager. But you're using a Photo manager and expecting it to behave like a file manager.
And, of course, apps like Aperture and iPhoto have the option to use the Title of the photo as filename on export to the new file.
Does that muddy the waters?

Is there a text tool for Aperture?

I would like to print a photo from Aperture or iPhoto with a text title someplace inside the photo, to use as a cover for a DVD. I searched for any text tools but none available (you can write text when printing a book which is not what I need). I solved my problem by using HeliosPaint but was wondering why Aperture does not have it available.

I solved my problem by using HeliosPaint but was wondering why Aperture does not have it available.
Because that's not what Aperture is meant for. That said, you can use the book tool to create this type of layout and export the page as a pdf. You can also use the print dialog to add text and print to pdf. There's also the free BorderFX plugin (here I go again) that can do the job.
But really, the best thing is always to use the right tool for the job. Aperture has minimal design capabilities simply because it's not a design app.

I just noticed the exact same thing. It turns out that the httpd-ssl.conf file on my system is still the old v2.2 syntax, which means that the SSLMutex directive is still in there. This is an invalid directive after 2.2.
This is where things get interesting. At first, I simply thought I had forgotten to merge httpd-ssl.conf.pacnew after apache had been upgraded to 2.4. However, when I check my pacman.log, it appears that httpd-ssl.conf was never upgraded when apache went to 2.4 - (2.2.26-1 -> 2.4.7-1). There was never a pacnew file generated to be merged.
I took a look at the apache package via the abs and the "proper" httpd-ssl.conf is certainly in there, so why pacman never created a pacnew file is a mystery.
Anyway, to fix this: pull the httpd-ssl.conf from the apache package, either from your cache, using the abs and building it, or (I think) pacman may re-install it if you move the file to a backup location (not sure about this). Then merge your original httpd-ssl-conf with the new one.

Nvidia 8800 GT not the best for Aperture use?

I've been reading from barefeats ( http://barefeats.com/harper10.html ) that the 8800 GT is not the best graphics card for Aperture. Actually I don't think they actually tested Aperture, but Motion 3. The Nvidia is a more expensive option than the ATIs, yet it would be worse for Aperture? Has someone specifically benchmarked Aperture 2 (not another pro app, and no synthetic tests of core image) with the 8800 GT against the other cards? Would Apple update Aperture to make it take better advantage of the 8800 GT's strengths (when available in a system)? I hope so. I already got the Nvidia, and am waiting to get a Mac Pro in the summer.

Here's my prelim findings (as posted in another thread). Will come back with more detailed comments after I have a chance to test some more:

I've just put one in my first gen mac pro, too. I can confirm a great deal of improvement over the stock 7300 gt. My prob was when an image had been straightened, cropped etc if I then attempted edge sharpening it was just awful - beachballs in abundance, crappy panning, slower than Capture NX. Now, though, it is fast and pleasant to use. That's the good news. The bad news is either:
1. Apple put such a puny graphics card in a Mac Pro (sic) in the first place (although it copes with everything except its own Pro photo software)
2. Apple wrote such idiosyncratic software (leaning on the on-graphics card memory so much) that meant Mac Pro (sic) machines hardly more than a year old couldn't cope without a new graphics card when running Apple's own pro photo software. That and the 7300 is still on the "recommended" list of cards for running Aperture 2.
Ho and, indeed, hum.

I heard dump the app and reinstall? How do I go about that?

Is there a way to save print job for later?

Is there a way to have print jobs saved for a later date/time? The only solution I can think of is to save the document/web page/file to a folder (e.g., "print later"). However, I'd rather just be able to hit print and in the print dialogue "send" the job to a print queue that I can open later.
For the curious, there are two often reoccuring situations where I want to save a print job for later: 1) I work late at night when my family is asleep and my house is not large enough to avoid disturbing their sleep by printing; and 2) I need to print out a 50+ page work document and I don't want to use my home computer to do it.
I'll appreciate whatever tips, recommendations, thoughts I get.

the method mentioned by benwiggy will certainly work. If you want to an option that would give you more options, you could use a PDF Service. You could then put a specific job on hold while still allowing others to use the printer.
You can do this by opening AppleScript Editor (/Applications/Utilities). You can copy and paste the following into an editor window --
on open printJobs
tell application "Finder"
set trapFile to quoted form of POSIX path of (printJobs as string)
end tell
set defaultPrinter to do shell script "lpstat -d | awk -F: '{print $2}'"
do shell script "lpr -P" & defaultPrinter & " -q " & trapFile
end open
Save the file as an Application. You can name it something like Hold Print Job. Then just put it in the PDF Services directory in the Library directory of your Home folder <yourname>/Library/PDF Services. You may need to make the PDF Services directory as it may not already be there.
Once the file is in place, you can use it by using the PDF drop down menu at the bottom left of a print window. That will send the file to the printer and put it on hold. Others can still use the printer. You can then print your file whenever you want. Just open the print queue as mentioned by benwiggy. Highlight the job that is Paused. You will see a little curly icon at the very right (looks like a reload icon in a web browser). Just click that icon and the job will start printing.

Program works but background job for that program fails....

I have a requirement where I have to collect the details of the purchase order and put the details in XML file format and FTP the XML file to an external third party FTP Server.
To realize this I developed a report program which follows following logic.
1)     First I collected the PO details by calling the BAPI BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL1.
2)     Then using the following link "/people/r.eijpe/blog/2005/11/10/xml-dom-processing-in-abap-part-i--convert-an-abap-table-into-xml-file-using-sap-dom-approach
I converted these PO details to the XML file format that the third party people accept.
       In the code I used u201CCALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_downloadu201D and in this process first the XML file is generated and is getting stored on my deskytop.
3)     Then I called HTTP_SCRAMBLE, FTP_CONNECT, FTP_COMMAND , FTP_DISCONNECT and RFC_CONNECTION_CLOSE.
This works perfectly well and each time I execute the report the file is getting FTPu2019ed to the third party FTP server.
Now I tried to schedule a batch job for this and the batch job fails with follwing errors
02/25/2009 15:08:47 Error in Control Framework
Message Class = FES
Message Number = 022
Message Type   = E
02/25/2009 15:08:47 Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE
Message Class = 00
Message Number = 564
Message Type   = A
Can some one tell me what is going wrong. My report works perfect in front end but fails if I try to schedule a background job for it in SM36.
Can you please tell me whatz going wrong with batch job? Any Help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
JEssica SAm

Robert...Thanks for the reply...
I am using follwing code
l_xml_size = l_ostream->get_num_written_raw( ).
    CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
      EXPORTING
        bin_filesize = l_xml_size
        filename     = FILEPATH
        filetype     = 'BIN'
      CHANGING
        data_tab     = l_xml_table
      EXCEPTIONS
        OTHERS       = 24.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
                 WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
Now what changes should i make..where should i store my XML file then instead of my desktop?
and whih Function Module should i Use..

Can ABAP proxy to consume WSDL file be run as background job for every10min

Hi all,
I have a requirement where I need to build an interface which gatheru2019s the purchase order details and send to external third party software in their required format (as an XML file).
So I should be the first point of contact and should trigger the interface each time a purchase order is generated.
So I am thinking that I should develop a background job for every 10 minutes which will look for new purchase orders and gathers the information of the purchase orders and send them to external third party software in their required format.
I have gone through all the SAP forums and e-Learning but still I have confusion in regards to how is it possible technically? Can some one guide me with some information on the same.
I have a little bit of confusion and want to know few things.
1)     Should I create a web service or should I consume a web service?
2)     If I need to consume a web service, then can I write an ABAP proxy to be run in background fro evry 10 minutes? I mean can we run ABAP proxy as a batch job in the background?
3)     Is there a difference between consuming an XML file and WSDL File?
Any Help will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Jessica.

There are two options (as I know) to generate XML file.
1. Use XML TRANSFORMATION to get the XML string based your TRANSFORMATION. You can input your data and get back the XML string. Download this string to a file
Test XML generation program is:
types: begin of ty_data,
       num   type i,
       end   of ty_data.
DATA: itab TYPE standard table of ty_Data,
      la_data like line of itab,
      xmlstr TYPE string.
DO 3 TIMES.
la_data-num = sy-index.
APPEND la_data TO itab.
ENDDO.
CALL TRANSFORMATION ztest_np1
SOURCE table = itab
RESULT XML xmlstr.
CALL FUNCTION 'DISPLAY_XML_STRING'
EXPORTING xml_string = xmlstr.
My ZTEST_NP1 transformation. To create a transformation, click on the transformation in the "CALL TRANSFORMATION ztest_np1" statement. Select Simple transformation type.
<?sap.transform simple?>
<tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">
<tt:root name="table"/>
<tt:template>
    <table>
      <tt:loop ref=".table">
        <item>
          <tt:value ref="NUM"/>
        </item>
      </tt:loop>
    </table>
</tt:template>
</tt:transform>
XML string is like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<table>
<item>1</item>
<item>2</item>
<item>3</item>
</table>
To use this option, you have to create a transformation and than use it to generate the XML string.
Check this SAP Help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/e3/7d4719ca581441b6841f1054ff1326/frameset.htm
2. You can concatenate and create an XML string and download that string into a file.

Creating a job for a procedure with an input parameter

Hi,
I want to create a job for a procedure ( sp_proc ) with a input parameter.
The input parameter is a date value.
As per the syntax for dbms_job.submit procedure;
dbms_job.submit (
job IN BINARY_INTEGER,
what IN VARCHAR2,
next_date IN DATE,
interval IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'NULL',
no_parse IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE);
How should the procedure be declared in the 'what' parameter of the dbms_job.submit procedure ?
Please guide.
Thanks.

Creating a Job for publication in Sql Server with select statement for passing a parameter

I am creating a job for adding article to a publication. the second step (e.g. for adding article) gives me error. I pass the name of the table as follow:
     EXEC sp_addarticle
           @publication = 'TTB', --THE NAME OF MY PUBLICATION
           'select top (1)' @article = 'Name from TableAdded Order by create_date Desc',
           'select top (1)' @source_object = 'Name from TableAdded Order by create_date Desc',
            @force_invalidate_snapshot = 1;
TableAdded is a table I have in my publisher which contains the name of the newly added table.
I believe it fails because the way I pass the name of the article to the store procedure is not correct. Can anyone please help me on that?
Kind regards
Amin

Yes, the way you add article is wrong.
you may try the below and let us know if you have any issues:
while loop begin (Get the values from TableAdded with status IsAdded=0)
Assign the values to variables like @article = Select top 1 Name from TableAdded where IsAdded=0
Call the sp_addarticle assigning the variable
update the Isadded flag in tableAdded for the name to 1
end while
BTB, Article configuration is supposed to be a one time configuration. Having said, you can easily configure through API. Caution, not sure what are you trying here, for adding new article, you may need to synch the data first in the above approach and should
carried out in the downtime.
