Book printing error

a few complaints and then a question.
1. there isn't enough dialogue boxes in the order book option to let the user know what's going on. it says 'exporting book' but i don't know if that means it's uploading it, or exporting on my hard drive to a temp folder a new formatted version of the book.
2. there was about 30 minutes of no dialogue between the export dialogue being finished and a new popup box saying the order has been processed and i'm getting an email on the status.
so i finally get an email. it says there were problems with the book in the upload that kept it from being ordered and printed, and could be one of 3 things: color space, image quality, or pdf issues. something like that.
question is how do i go about beginning to resolve what my issue is!? do i go back to figuring out what color profile the images were imported with?, or what?
there is a yellow triangle warning label, small, on the top right corner of some images in the book layout view. i click on it and nothing happens and can't find anything in the menu/help documentation to figuring out what this might indicate. anyone know what it is? that could be the heart of my issues with getting the book in proper format and order for being successfully received and printed by apple.
thanks.

Hi,
I have seen the yellow triangle in my picture after trying to resize it put it back to original size and it went away allowing book to be published. I found this in iphoto help for you.
What should I do if I get a low-resolution warning?
A digital photo is made up of millions of individual dots of color, called pixels. A photo's "resolution" is the number of dots per inch (dpi) that it contains. Some photos may look jagged or blurry when printed if their resolution is too low.
When you design a book or order prints, a warning symbol indicates any low-resolution photos:
To improve a photo's print quality:
Choose a smaller print size. In a book layout, you can do this by increasing the number of photos per page.
If you previously cropped the photo, revert to its original version and crop off a smaller portion, or leave it uncropped.
If you positioned a photo within its book frame by zooming in on it, zoom out of the photo.
If you get a low-resolution warning after trying these methods, you can still order prints of the image or include it in your book, but it may not print as clearly as your other photos.
Hope this helps.
Chris

  • Printing from Mac Book Pro to windows printer Error 306

    Error 306
    I tried several setups before I figured this out.
    Trying to print to windows printer
    Mac Book Pro / Canon MX 870 resulted in print error 306.
    Home network with Linksys  wireless N router
    First delete the printer on the Mac.
    Make sure you go to Canon's website and download latest driver for your Mac. Canon's software driver site detects your operating system automatically and takes you to the driver you need, just make sure everything matches up. You can see the OS version you are using by clicking on the apple icon and then (about this mac)
    I also down loaded network tool package. Not sure if you need it, but I loaded it too.
    Now on the Canon MX870, go to the wireless set up menu. (key pad on the printer itself). Follow the promts and you will get to where you can enter your network password and get your printer to connect to your router. Now the wireless Icon on the printer will be on steady.
    Now back on the Mac, Click the Apple Icon, System Preferences, then click on printers and scanners.
    You will see, Default- Scanner- IP- Windows, icons at the top of the page. Just be sure the default is highlighted.
    My Scanner came up first, then a few seconds later the printer appeared.
    Select the printer
    Use the one with all the numbers after the printer name. (MX870xxxxxxxxxxx)
    Canon U Network
    Click on it and then click the add button bottom right
    Make sure your are always in good wireless signal strength throughout the entire process.
    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the detailed info Lou!

  • Error message doesn't allow iPhoto to connect to order books/prints

    i get this messager repeatedly while trying to order books, prints, and publish my photos via my .mac account. AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILE CONFIRMING YOUR ACCOUNT INFORMATION. PLEASE CHECK YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION AND TRY AGAIN. i already checked time/date, my connection is fine, my computer is clean, what can this be?????

    I am experiencing this same problem tonight. Did you resolve this problem? If so, how? This is the first time this has happened to me. I know it's not a problem with my account, because I am able to sync my iDisc, log into my .mac account on Safari, etc. The problem seems to be limited to iPhoto.

    just louded new version cat print from quick books internal error message coms up  

    I don't have a link handy, but as far as I know, the Acrobat 9 user guide is available online as a (guess what!) PDF you may download... or is on the disc if you bought physical media
    Go to that PDF and search for compatibility
    The PDF for version 8 covers setting the options to a previous version on pages 102-103
    The words may (or may not) be different for v9
    Adobe PDF settings
    The Adobe PDF Settings dialog box in Acrobat Distiller contains panels of options that you can select to customize your PDF output.
    General panel options
    Use this panel to select a version of Acrobat for file compatibility and other file and device settings. (The panel appearance differs in Windows and Mac OS.)
    Compatibility Sets the compatibility level of the PDF. Use the most recent version (in this case, version 1.7) to include all the latest features and functionality. If youre creating PDFs that will be distributed widely, choose an earlier level, to ensure that all users can view and print the document.

  • "Print Error Whilst Printing" when trying to print or save as PDF

    I don't understand why i can't just print - everytime it says Print error whilst printing whether i'm actually trying to save it or print it. I'm very new to using Macs - 3 days now so not used to how they work yet but i'm running Tiger 10.4.8 on an Intel Mac if anyone can help me please!

    Hello Dorin and thank you for your answer.
    Yes page 5 is a double page spread and this is not the only one in my book! I will modify the page 5 to see if the error message will appear at the next double page spread....
    Thanks again

  • Printing error and Export to PDF error after a Quark Express convert

    I are working on a catalogue that was previously made with Quark Express. I used q2id to convert over to InDesign CS3. I had some minor issues setting up the new fonts, but that was no big deal. Now that the catalogue is close to finished, I want to do some test print, however, on several of the files it start processing the printing, finish the processing of all the pages, then kills the print job and comes with the following error:
    Print Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem.
    Similar error happens when I try to export to PDF, this error only says:
    Failed to Export PFD file
    Anyone had a similar problem?? I've done a preflight but ID does not indicate any problems with the file nor its content. Is there another tool to scan the file with to find errors?? Possible fix it?? Is there a log file I could check??
    In advance, thanks guys.
    Working on:
    InDesign CS3
    Windows XP Pro, SP02
    2 GB RAM

    Thanks Ken,
    Not sure how to check if we do have OPI comments on some of the images, but looks like I have found a solution to the printing problem at least.
    Thanks to a respons by Peter Spier to another topic with similar problems:
    Peter Spier - 4:00am Mar 11, 08 PST (#5 of 6)
    The symptoms could describe document corruption rather than network issues which might fall into the category of things that can be cleared up through export to .inx.
    Try exporting one or two of the problem files to interchange format, open those and save as new .indd and make a new book file. See if that behaves differently across the network.
    I also found another article about INX files, that confirms this technique:
    http://avondale.typepad.com/indesignupdate/2005/08/what_the_heck_i.html
    "...INX can also help “clean up” problem files in InDesign CS2—if you’re running into problems, especially with files that started their lives as QuarkXPress or PageMaker files, try exporting the document as INX and then opening that file."
    So, I
    1. exported all files, one by one to INX or InDesign InterChanged
    2. Then reopened those files, saved back as regular .indd files
    3. Reopend the new file (hoping for a refreshed file and test to see if it would open without problems.)
    4. Then packed the files indevidually and reopend the new packed files when done.
    Alle the files now print without any problems but export to PDF still fails with the same error message.
    Would the OPI comment be a problem here maybe?
    Thanks!

  • Book printing - Unique Workflows? - Post yours to inform others

    I am exploring the book printing features in Aperture. My goal was to build the book in Aperture and get this into iPhoto so that I could use MyPublisher to print the book. MyPublisher currently has a 50% off coupon for orders over $50. iPhoto needs their plugin to upload to MyPublisher instead of Apple when the BuyBook button is chosen. (code is MAC2550 - good though Dec 31). The design features in Aperture are rudimentary at best. It's simple to customize the design for photo placement, adding and deleting photos, resizing, etc. The type design features are not simple to customize, though. However, with patience a suitable design can be made. You can add and delete text boxes at will but these will always default to the template's built in style. I continually had to reformat the type by right clicking on the selected text and applying my preferred style. One trick when cutting and pasting text is to place the cursor one letter in from the beginning of a preformatted line, select the remaining text and paste - this will pick up the current style rather than default to the template default. Then delete the leftover first character of the line. From Aperture I printed the book to PDF, being sure to choose letter size and borderless paper option. Once book is printed to PDF I opened in Acrobat and "saved as" to PNG. In the PNG options I chose 600ppi (the default of 300ppi might have been just fine for quality, not sure). Saving to PNG creates an individual file for each page. In testing Apple's Preview software for this I found it would make a nice PNG - but of just one page at a time. I then imported all PNG pages into iPhoto. Within iPhoto create a book. I used "Modern Lines" with double sided pages. To create the cover (it's actually a label that is adhered to the linen hard cover book) I had to import the actual cover photo used in Aperture to recreate a new design based on the "Modern Lines" template. I then recreated my pages using the template. The key step being to assign the single photo page design for each page. For each page I dropped in the corresponding PNG file which included all type and images created previously in Aperture. One minor point when adjusting the placed PNG images in the iPhoto template is the option to fit photo to frame size (an option when right clicking on the photo). When fit photo is selected the image gets resized very slightly. I opted not to use this feature as I thought the resizing might compromise quality. I then clicked on the "buy book" button and the file was assembled and sent to MyPublisher. Since I had the 50% coupon I opted for the leather bound book option and ordered two 24 page books for $53.74 which included $9.98 standard FedEx fee. As for quality I'll have to wait and see. I'll post back once books are in hand.

    Thanks for the information that you provided.  However, I already have a stamps.com account and when I log in, it shows my balance.  It just will not let me print netstamps.  I am coming up with an eror message:  There was an internal processing error.  Please retry or manually check the firmware updates.
    My printer has the most current firmware.  
    This is a great feature, but I cannot get it to do anything but let me log into my account using my user name and password.    do I need to set up another account, because that would be redundant if I have to.
    Any information tha you can provide would be extremely helpful.
    Thanks in advance.

  • IPhoto Book Print - Rejected

    Sirs
    Could you please help me with an issue that I currently have with iPhoto.
    As a Christmas Present for my 6 year old daughter, I have created an iPhoto book of our recent trip to EuroDisney. I completed the book and purchased it via the Apple Store in iPhoto.
    However, I have today received an email stating as follows:
    To Our Valued Apple Customer:
      It appears that when your order was submitted to Apple, an error caused the
      image file to be unreadable or unprintable. As a result, Apple is unable to
      process your order and you will not be charged. We recommend the following
      before submitting your order:
      1. Update your software.
      2. Restart your computer.
      3. Make sure all applications are closed.
      4. Open iPhoto or Aperture.
      5. While all other applications are closed, preview your print product as a
      PDF.
      6. Resubmit your order.
      While previewing and resubmitting your order, make sure all other applications

      <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1338>
    I have checked the version of my MacBook - it is OS X 10.7 and I have checked the version of my iPhoto - it is 9.1.5. When selecting purchase in iPhoto, it is stating that I need to upgrade to 9.2.3. However, when I attempt to check for new updates in iPhoto itself, it is stating that my version is the latest version. Furthermore, checking for software updates via the Apple logo does not bring up any update for iPhoto nor does any updates in my Application Store.
    It seems as if I require an update but there are no ways in which I can update this.
    Could someone please advise / assist as I desperately want to get this book printed.
    Many Thanks
    Paul

    If you update your system to 10.7.5 with the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) and OS X Lion 10.7.5 Supplemental Update updaters you can update your iPhoto version all the way to 9.4.2 thru the updaters availailable here: Apple - Support - Downloads-iPhoto 9.
    But that's no guarantee that will fix the problem. If the problem image appears OK in a PDF preview of the book it should, as Larry pointed out, print out OK.  If it doesn't look OK in the PDF preview file export it out of iPhoto, open in Preview and export as a new, JPEG file.  Import it back into iPhoto, add to the book and replace the problem file with the newly created one.  Then create a new PDF file of the book and check that photo.

  • Export PDF creates 0kb file and Print Error.

    By "Print Error", I mean a simple pop-up window with the pages logo and the sentence "Print. Error while printing" even though I haven't asked for anything to be printed. The resulting pdf file is zero k in size and useless.
    I had this problem in iW '06 and thought that '08 might fix it. No dice though.
    Deleating prefs did not fix the issue. ['06 or '08]
    Anyone? Thanks.

    I suspect that you've turned off a couple fonts with Font Book (or perhaps removed them from the Fonts folder). Pages expects certain fonts to exist - even if we don't use them or even want them.

  • FM 12: How do I create a .ps file of a book? (errors prevent PDF generation)

    FM 12: How do I create a .ps file of a book? (errors prevent PDF generation)

    There's probably a graphic on one of your pages that is causing a postscript division error (i.e. divide by zero?) See also: PostScript error offending command div
    As Jeff suggests, track down the errant graphic to see what's wrong. If you print to file, you should get an idea of roughly where in the docs the error occurs by watching the print thermometer display.

  • PDF Print Error

    I have been using CS5 for the last two years to create a .indb file. I always export the book as a PDF and then send it to my printer. I recently had to change laptops and decided to give CC a try on the trial version. I used all the same content and images that I have always used to create the Indesign book. But when I exported the PDF and sent it to print, the printer came back saying that there was a print error and she was unable to print past certain pages. She could open the document and see everything but when she would try to print, a dialogue box would pop up saying there was an error.
    I am using a Macbook Pro. Any thoughts?

    We are experiencing similar issues. Have you tried saving the print file as postscript and then use Distiller to create the PDF.
    We are using older versions of distiller as a work around.
    We have some client's that print to a PDF server that are not experiencing this issue with CC publishing apps.
    We are continuing to evaluate the CC publishing functionality, we will report our findings once we have the facts.
    In the mean time, find work around's, get the jobs out and keep getting paid.

  • HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome

    HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome. Extra large font sizes and weird formatting issues only when printing emails from Gmail within Chrome. No problems when printing the same email from Gmail+Internet Exolorer or Thunderbird. Using the IE Tab extension in Chrome prints the email correctly but the style of Gmail's message window is completely weird ie: formatting bar is spread out vertically instead of horizontally. I believe it is clear that this is an application specific issue between the HP LASERJET CP1525nw printer and Google Chrome + Gmail. This printing scenario does not occur when printing anything else or when printing via another printer. I would appreciate receiving any suggestions to solve this issue.

  • HP Envy 4500 All in One - Printer Error - not finishing print job / non-specific error code

    Help - my new HP ENVY 4500 AIO (less 3 months old) has never completed a print job if it is over 1 page. I'm connected wirelessly, and not sure if there is an interruption in the wireless connection or if this is defect in the  printer. I receive a message "Printer Error - HP ENVY cancelling print job" and that's it. It will usually happen when it's on the last page of a small print job or half way thru a large (10+ page) of a print job.  Any suggestions? I've downloaded HP Print/Scan Dr - it didn't find any issues.

    I had the same issue. Got in contact with HP customer service and the first person that helped had no idea how to fix it.  Got in contact with someone else and they found the issue right away. I had it connected through the wrong port.
    First find out what the IP address of your printer is. You can do this by pressing the small wifi button on the front of your printer and it will show the IP address. 
    Then what you'll have to do is go to the start menu of your computer and search for "Devices and Printers".
    Click that and a screen will open. Look for your printer an right click.
    Click "Printer Properties" and a new screen will open.
    Along the top you will see a few tabs. Click the one that says "Ports"
    Click "Add Port"
    Highlight "Standard TCP/IP Port" by clicking on it, then click "New Port"
    A new screen will open.
    Click "Next"
    Type in the IP Address of your printer and click "Next"
    After that your computer should find your printer.
    Click finish and you should be all set.
    Hope this helps.

  • Getting printing error while issuing the excise invoice with cust. O/P type

    Hi,
    I have created a custom output type and form and tried to issue it with the transaction J1IS.  But it is always giving me error saying "Printing Error".  I checked and didn't find any error in the SAP Script.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    The error could be due to various reasons.A good starting point though would be to check if your page margins do not exceed the printer boundary.
    Regards,
