Book 16 bit

Hi all,
I am trying to save a book layout from Aperture as tiff 16 bit files:
I tried to save the book as an adobe pdf and to save the pdf as tiff images from Acrobat but i only got 8 bit files
I tried to save "pdf as tiff" from Aperture but i cannot see any options to edit the bit depth (also tried to edit it in automator)
Any ideas? Thank you

Im not sure but I dont think you can. The book will be printed in 8 bit no matter who gets it to print and your files will always in aperture stay 16bit. AFAIK ps 16 vs 8 is pretty contraversal still... so beware :-0 cheers

Address book, a bit senile

I just loaded Snow Leopard (10.6.8) onto both my wife's (MacBook) and my computer (MacBook Pro). In my wife's machine it seems to work fine. On mine AddressBook does not find all the addresses it has. For instance I type in a friend's name "McKee" and it does not fine them -- as if I never entered the name. Then I go to Mail and type in "McKee" and it finds them (from AddressBook) no problem! The only commonality seems to be those addresses I look up more often - maybe I am dreaming.

Steve,
The Address Book and the Mac Mail list of "previous recipients" are two separate databases. If you have entries in Mail's list that you want to add to the Address book select Mail > Window > Previous Recipients. Locate the desired entries and select, then click the button Add to Address Book.

Photo book print quality: large vs. medium (both softcover)

hello all,
I just wanted to share my experience about the difference in print quality between the medium softcover and large (in my case, softcover) books from iPhoto, something I wondered about before I took the plunge and ordered them.
I recently received copies of both, ordered a week apart, both using the 300 dpi hack, but unfortunately of diff't photos in each, so the comparison won't be too scientific.
First impressions: the photos in the large softcover seemed to me better than the medium. You can detect some very fine dots with the naked eye, in the places where a color shades into white. Overall, not objectionable at all, especially at a reasonable viewing distance. Akin to a decent/average inkjet photo. Meanwhile, the medium format struck me as having a worse print resolution, like a photo in a newspaper or cheaply printed magazine. The halftone pattern seemed more noticeable.
However, on closer inspection, side by side, I can see the halftone dots in each, and I wonder if they're actually printed at the same resolution. I think it was partly the bigger size of the average photo in the large book that convinced me it had a better resolution, and the smaller photos in a medium book can make the whole thing look bad. Also, I can definitely detect banding from the halftone pattern in the medium book that I don't notice in the large; but could this be due to the subject matter in the medium (blurred washes of muted color) more than a print resolution difference? Perhaps.
My conclusion: while it could be that the print resolution on the large is slightly better, I suspect my perception of the quality difference is based more on photo size and subject matter (sharp focus w/patterns, texture, moderate detail rather than empty color looks best). Still, despite my suspicion that the print resolution is the same, I can't shake the sense the large looks a little better.
Which is too bad in a way, as I think the medium has a lot going for it: it's cheaper than the large, and I actually much prefer to have a series of single, full-bleed images at 6x8 than two or three or more cluttered together on a bigger page for the same price. Plus I find the peek-a-boo cutout on the cover of the large book a bit cheesy.
So if you're going to go medium, I would definitely stay away from those six-photos-a-page layouts, especially if you have people in your small photos: their features will be degraded enough they start to look a little funny/unrecognizable. Bigger is better.
And if anyone has the same photo at the same size in two differently sized books to compare, that would settle things.
Also, I had a number of grayscale scans that I converted to rgb before adding to iPhoto, and the b&w photos printed in the book look great. While I would describe them as 'cool', I don't detect a noticeable color cast, and the blacks are decent.
Overall, as an amateur whose expectations were aimed a bit low, I'm pleased with both for the price, and will look to large for special occasions, medium for everyday photosets.

You're confusing two similar though technically different things.
You have the dpi (dot's per inch in the raster file) resolution of the images (assuming the image will not be reduced or enlarged) of 300 dpi - that is a static resolution and it one of two resolution settings that affect the quality of a printed image.
I was told the books are printed cmyk with screening so the other resolution that you have no control over is the "LPI" or "Lines per Inch" of the printing process. The CMYK separations are each printed at a different angle to achieve the full color effect.
The soft cover books appear to be printed at a lesser lpi than the hard cover books which would give the images a courser look to them.
I have not compared the books under a loop so this is going on what I was told.

Recommend an advanced java book

hello,
i'm not that new to java because i know all the concepts and all
but i have reached a point where i need to move forward, so i feel i need a good book -a bit advanced not too much- to progress.
I don't have my mind set on a specific aspect of java , i know java is a huge world, what i'm looking for is an all in all book , maybe later i can focus on one topic at a time.
thanks,
Merry Christmas to y'all

What is 32-Bit and 64-Bit?

I hear a lot about this and just wanted to know what it is. I knew you guys would help! Thanks!

You could write a book about bits and what they mean when it comes to computing. It gets rather complicated, but I'll try and help:
If your Mac has a Core 2 Duo instead of a Core Duo processor, then it is capable of 64 bit addressing, so it will take advantage of the 64 bit apps offered by Snow Leopard. In basic terms, your computer can address more RAM with a 64-bit processor. But most people won't notice any performance difference at all, especially if you don't have more than 4GB RAM. For everyday tasks, currently, 64 bit is not that important, in my opinion.
The rest is up to you to research if you're that interested:
First, you must understand what a "bit" is:

See Wikipedia for articles that explain the two:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/32_bit
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64_bit

Making DVD's not DVD-R's

so netflix and a few other places require DVD's not DVD-R's. What's the difference? Thanks!

Pardon me, David,
When you said in your first reply:
"DVD-R is a type of blank media. If authored properly, it will be a DVD-Video when you're done."
It would be more accurate to say that a DVD-R is it's own format, as Eric stated, and certainly can never be a DVD-Video - even if authored properly. The DVD Forum is very clear that the DVD-Video logo cannot be placed on a DVD-R format disc, because they are not the same format (you can put the DVD-R logo on a DVD-R disc). Mainly this is because these two optical formats are completely different in structure, and because only replicated discs can achieve the reliability in players (which you mentioned) required of a product bearing the DVD-Video logo - the main mass distribution format targeting consumers. That's the short of the story.
And when you said in your second reply:
"A DVD-Video is a DVD disc that contains data that conforms to the DVD-Video standard. Otherwise is wouldn't play in a DVD player. It does not matter whether the disc is burned or replicated."
Again, if the disc was burned, it's not a DVD-Video. It's one of the recordable formats (DVD+R/W is an optical format not recognized by the DVD Forum, but with similar characteristics. It's leadin can contain the DVD_ROM book type bit setting, that can trick players into thinking a replicated disc has been stuck in it, however).
And a DVD-Video disc is a replicated / manufactured disc that has certain lead-in data which a DVD-R can never emulate, because it's lead-in area is glossed over in manufacturing (to prevent bit for bit copying of manufactured DVDs) with set data in its lead-in area. So it's crucial, whether or not a disc has been burned or replicated. Again, only replicated discs can bear the DVD-Video logo.
And when you said:
"DVD-R and DVD+R are types of optical media. They are not a format."
As I (and Eric) mentioned, DVD-R is a format, with books specified for it by the DVD Forum. DVD+RW is also a format, but not specified by the DVD Forum. But yes, DVD-R and DVD+RW and one you forgot - DVD-ROM (replicated DVD-Video) are also all optical media.
There's more to it. You might get on the DVD Forum's website and check on some of these questions.
Take care,

Java function call from C++ Application

I'm new to Java, One of our client have generic APIs for there business logic, those are written in JAVA, now we want to use some of these APIs in C++ application. Can any one suggest/address me the better way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
--Ravi

Hi,
There is an API you can use: JNI, the Java Native Interface. It makes it possible to make method calls Java - C/C++ and vice versa.
There are some good books, and a good online tutorial, that can help you get along using JNI.
You'll find the tutorial at: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/native1.1/index.html
I recommend you to get a copy each of:
"Core Java2: Volume 1 - fundamentals"
"Core Java2:Volume 2 - advanced features"
... as they cover all basic concepts of Java up to the point of using JNI(!). Try to get the seventh edition as it covers the latest release, JDK 1.5. Both volumes has Hortsmann and Cornell as authors.
"Essential JNI" by Rob Gordon is also a good book, a bit old by now though, but full of good examples.
Hope this helps

AMs and PMs - how to search for small-caps?

In my book I'm proofreading I have a mixture of (because I was undecided when I was putting it together):
i 7.00 a.m.
i 7.00 am
i 7.00am
I ran these three options past about twenty people this morning, 6 voted for the first, 8 voted for the second, 3 voted for the third, and 1 person and myself voted for the option I can't show properly here: small-caps: 7.00 AM. Then of course there was the wag who told me: "Why don't you just say '7 o'clock in the morning' "? And the complete ratbag who suggested, in the interests of avoiding confusion: "7.00 am o'clock in the morning before lunch at 0700 hours."
Before I make them all the same format, which will very likely be small-caps, I want to make sure I can easily search for them so I can replace with an alternative style if I change my mind again later on.
QUES: How do I search for "AM" and "PM" (spaces before and after) if they are formatted in small-caps? I can't use paragraph styles because the AMs and PMs appear in a variety of styles already.

Thanks for all the hints. I'm going to try some of them to see how they work. I should make it clear though (my original post may have been unclear about this) that I was asking how to search for AM in small caps AFTER I had changed all time-formats to that form.
As for why I asked for input: I treat my book a bit like a democracy and give people a chance to vote on certain aspects and make comments just in case they have a good idea that I hadn't thought of; but yes, I'm the boss, and in terms of votes mine counts for 95%. In this case, someone suggested using a colon -- which I have taken on board. So I will be using the time format 7:30 AM to see how it looks. But if I don't like it, I want to be able to find all the small-cap AMs and change them to something else in one go.
My interest in time-formats has stirred some interest locally. My partner proof reads a walking club magazine and she received the latest edition lat night. She has never concerned about time formats before, but after my foray into different options, she came up with the following variety (the club has lots of reports that include times when walking trips start and end), even though she thought she had done a thorough job of proof reading:
9 am
9.00am
9:00 am
9:00am
9.am
9 AM
9.00a.m.
9.00 a.m.

1z0-027, exadata certification

Ciao,
do someone have suggestions for the exam 1z0-027 ? Yes, I know the "Exadata Database Machine Administration Workshop" course, but I mean some book or official testing software.
Thanks

Hi Mitul,
I don't know if there are any books out yet for this exam. You can visit Oracle Press Books http://bit.ly/URFuwt and see what they have available. Other Forum users may also have other suggestions.

The defaut correction tool doesn't work on my LR5 on my mac. I clic , the second circle appear but nothing else happens

Hi
i have a Mac book little bit old .and I use LR5
when i want to use the defat correction tool , i open the tool , i choose "correction" and then i clic on the defaut
a second circle appears but nothing else happens . No correction
do i miss something???
Thanx

It's sounds like you're using the Spot Removal tool. What happens depends on the Feather and Opacity controls. If the Opacity is at 0, you won't see any change. 100 will give the full healing or cloning, while feather controls the size of the edge of the healing.

There should be only one version for the Mac, but it you have to choose then use 64-bit.

Suggestions for bit rate for books on cd

Hi
I'm trying to clear some room on my ipod. Thus far I've been importing everything at 192. I'm hoping to reimport some of the books on cd that I've put on and would like some suggestions as to how low of a bit rate I can use without affecting sound quality too much (I tried 96 and really couldn't tell the difference).
Thanks
Evelyn

Hi, Evelyn.
For spoken word recordings, 32 kbps is generally considered an acceptable setting.
And, for what it's worth, that's the Bit Rate for Audiobooks purchased from the iTunes Store.
