Book format lost

My wife has successfully created and printed a book using Aperature 2.1 - love it! Now a few months later she wants to modify and reprint the book. But when she opens the project, there is just all the photos used, displayed in the browser/viewer view, but no "book" - no layout, none of the text, etc. Has something been lost or is the view just wrong. Appreciate help...

How can I print a pages document in book format ..order?

How can I print a pages document in book format ..order?

This is usually a function of the driver you're using. Have you looked in the various PDEs for black and white or grayscale? What kind of printer are you using?

I'm creating a book format in Pages. I want the page count to be 1 on the first page of chapter one after the title page, table of contents, etc.. How do I do that?

That is not the issue.
Pages/OSX does not save files with crop marks and bleeds.
It also by default saves transparency, which is involved in a lot of Pages' better features, at a rubbishy 72 dpi resolution.
It also makes it extremely difficult to maintain mono-color like black only text, has no spot color and makes color management opaque.
It really is only meant for amateur publishing and printing to your desktop printer.
A commercial printer who is willing to use and print from Pages may have better results but at the cost of considerable micro-management which defeats the point of this "cheap" solution.

Looking for some creative guidelines for book formatting

I am formatting a book, my first one, and am about to start refining the overall formatting to make it look beautiful. I'm running into a bit of a creative block, and am looking for some basic guidelines for book formatting. I'm wondering about fonts, how many to use, ideas about heading heiarchy's, fonts for tables relative to the rest of my text, etc. I have everthing formatted, but it just looks ackward and ugly because I don't have a sensitivity to the standards.
Does anyone know of a resource where I could find some guidance on this?

Aperture crashes with "own" book-formats

hi there
i'm trying to set up a new book-format in aperture 3.6 / yosemite 10.10
somehow, aperture crashes every time i activate the new format...
any help on this? it worked fine for years now - but updating to yosemite seems to have ruined this feature...?
rgds!

If your signature is correct, and you're not abbreviating which version of Aperture you're using, I would do Software Updates first to get to 10.6.7 and Aperture 3.1.2. See if that helps.

Book module of lightroom changed book format

I am having an issue with the book module of lightroom (using it for blurb)
I made a book chosing the large landscape format.
I completed it all and only when exporting to blurb, surprised by the low price,
I had noticed that it had become a "standard format".
I never had changed the format.
So I made a copy of the book, changed the format.
And in order to do that I confirmed that I would accept changes in layout.
Lightroom did not to a bad job,but
1) some pictures had disappeared
2) some pages templates were not available in large book format (e.g. the 4x3 multiple page)
I started correcting the book again and half way I noticed that lightroom HAD CHANGED AGAIN THE FORMAT
and brought it back to standard format, WITHOUT ASKING FOR CONFIRMATION.
I am now starting again.
Not nice to have to redo again considerable work on a 160 pages book, on a deadline.
Definitely there is something to be fixed there.
If anyone had experienced anything like this, please let me know
I will try to reformat the book again now, hoping that it will work.
Otherwise I have really no idea about what to do.

Are you using Lr 4.3? If not, upgrade to Lr 4.3. There were issues with the Book Module in Lr 4.1.
For Lr 4.xx users the upgrade to Lr 4.3 is free of charge.
Download it from Adobe's website, install it, and - when asked - enter your serial #.

Book format error

First time I uploaded this PDF to my iPad, it showed the "book format error" message.. i deleted it and then reuploaded.. IT WORKED, but only for a while, when syncing other books, it came back to the book format error thing.. what could be happening and how to solve this issue? it's a random school pdf thing, it shouldn't be copyright protected or something.

I checked a few of the other .pdfs I have in iBooks - no problem.
The issue occured with the 2 I created and imported today.
Created and uploaded them the same way as I have always done.
They synched fine to iPad, only when I went to open the files in iBooks, I got:
"Book Format Error - book can not be opened because format is not recognized or invalid"
Format is .pdf has always worked, still works on others, but not these two.
I don't know why or what is different this time.

I've purchased numerous books through itunes and now I'm unable to open ibooks; I get a "book format error, delete and redownload" which I've done numerous times with negative results.

I've purchased numerous books through the itunes store in which I was able to read. Now I'm unable to open some of the ibooks that I've purchased, I get an error message...book formate error, delete and redownload, which I've done numerous times with negative results. What are my options?

within the receipt that Apple sent to you via email is a Report a Problem link. use that link to report your issue.
also you could try a basic reset and see if that resolves your issue. hold down the Lock button & Home button at the same time for ~15 seconds, the iPad should then perform a reset.

TS3991 In setting up ituns, all 0f my kindle books were lost and I am not allowed to open the kindle app. How do I fix this?

In setting up my IPAD,all of my Kindle books were lost and I am not allowed to access them. They do not appear on my cloud either. How do I fix this?

iCloud doesn't sync books so you wouldn't find them in your iCloud account. I don't use Kindle but it looks like you can redownload you purchased books from the Kindle app. See "Book was accidentally deleted from the Kindle app" here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=help_search_1-2?ie=UTF8& nodeId=200438490&qid=1349822479&sr=1-2.

Which e-books formats can be read on iPad

Which e-book formats can be read on an iPad?

That will depend upon what apps are available in your country's store. Most ebooks have digital rights management on them which tie them to the store's own apps/ereaders. You can read DRM-free epubs in the iBooks app. For kindle ebooks from Amazon you will need their Kindle app (or use the cloud reader), and you might also have in your country's store Kobo, Nook, Sony's Reader app for ebook purchases from their stores.

IPhoto Froze during book viewing, lost book

While trying to do a final view of a 100page book tonight, iPhoto would not let me view the book, once I was able to view it, there were no pages in the book but the pictures were all viewable in the panel above the book pages.
It stated that my theme was unavailable but when I went to select a new theme it was still there.
Anybody have this issue and know how to recover my book, no I have not had my time machine on yet.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
I'm afraid if a book is lost the only way to recover it is from a back up.
The loss is caused by some form of database corruption.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Formatting lost when exported to excel

When I export a worksheet results to excel the formatting is being lost like in my worksheet I wanted a line and space for every grouped item which is lost in excel sheet. Is there a way get around for this ?
Thanks

Not exactly sure what formatting you're having a problem with, but I'll list some of the points I can think of, of exporting to Excel and will hopefully cover it. I believe you may be referring to point 1 below, but just in case ...
1. If you have group sort on for a column or more, then when exported to Excel, you won't have those 'blank' values for the column(s) that's grouped. That's why when you know someone will be exporting to Excel, it's a pain as all group sorts are usually taken back off (which can screw up exactly what you're trying to point out in the workbook).
2. If you have a page -> item (ie: lots of values you pull down like a LOV), then I believe, that you won't get an Excel worksheet for each value in the LOV but only for the one currently displayed when you performed the File -> Export.
3. When you export to Excel, you only get actual values, no functions of how it was calculated (ie: it'll be static, not dynamic).
4. You can export to Excel using Plus and might not get the formatting characteristics you want in Excel. I've seen users specifically bring up Viewer just to get the formatting characteristics (colors, fonts, etc.) when they export from that Disco version.
5. Sometimes when you export from Disco to Excel, that actual value that gets posted in Excel is different. I know ... it sounds wierd, but it's a fact. The problem is NOT Disco, but is a problem with Windows and a setting has to be altered (although I'd have to hunt what that setting is now though). However, I've only seen this happen a few times, so definitely not the norm.

I created a document in Pages. How can I get it published in a book format?

Looking to get my document formated into book form. Pictures and text have been created in Pages. Any advice in how to create a book from this document?

Speak to either your printer or publisher. Ask what their requirements are.
I think neither will be happy with Pages documents.
Exported .pdfs from Pages are not suitable for commercial output either.

Hello ABAP gurus,
A text file has to be zipped .I have used the class method CL_ABAP_ZIP-SAVE() to create a zip file in the application server. The zip file is double clicked and the text file is opened.
