Change book size but keep layout

I am halfway through creating a 6 X 8 book, including a couple of pages I custom designed. I just noticed that this book size is available only in softcover, but I think I may want a hardcover book. I tried duplicating the book, then changing the duplicated book to the 8.5 X 11 hardcover size, but Aperture applies the "default" book layout and re-flows all my pictures! (I am glad I duplicated the book first, or a guess I would have lost everything.)
Is there any way to tell Aperture that I want to maintain the same basic page layout (e.g., if page 3 has 4 horizontal photos, then I want page 3 in the new layout to have those same 4 photos, horizontal)? I know I may have to go through and do some general fixing up, but I would like to avoid aving to re-do the entire thing.

As you've seen, your personalized layout won't transfer. The book will need to be redesigned using the new theme.

Looking to change book size but maintain my page layouts

Is there a smart way of changing the book size in aperture but be able to maintain the page layouts. I dont want to redo the entire book. Any tricks or suggestions would be of immense help. I have custom layouts for images.

I don't know of any way to do this, that is supported by Apple. If you change the theme or the book size, you will get the warning, that custom items and texts might change.
Have you tried to duplicate your book and to change the size of the copy of the book? What are the custom items that are changing in your particular custom theme?

I need to change my image file size but keep the same pixels. Possible?

I'm trying to upload an image to a mobile ad platform (Adfonic) with the following requirements: Image dimensions 216 x 36 pixels; max file size 3.0 kb; file formats supported GIF, JPG, PNG. I figured out how to change the pixel size but now my file is too big. I have Photoshop CS4 Extended & Vista.
I changed the file resolution but then the pixel size changes. What can I do?
Thanks!

Save-As, JPEG offers you a quality slider. You trade quality for size. This still wouldn't give you what you needed?
You could try JPEG 2000, but beware, it's not as compatible with as many things, and it can look kind of weird, but boy does it compress...

Changing Book Size

I have created an "Extra Large" book n Aperture 3.1, but want to order a "Large" version of it. However, when I change the size using "Change Theme", it loses all my layouts, text etc. Is there any way of doing this? Surely people must sometimes want to order multiple copies of the same book in different sizes (e.g. an extra large wedding album for the couple, then smaller versions of the same for the parents)?

Sure - select teh book in the source pane on the left and duplicate it (just in case of problems) - depress the command key and type "D" - then go to chemes and select teh new size, verify that it worked and preview it -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
then order it

Can I change book size after its designed?

I just spent hours getting my book just the way I want it but now realize I'd rather buy the larger size book than the smaller one I selected at the start of the project. Can I change the book size now before I purchase?

yes - you can change size or theme
duplicate the project before you make changes as a backup
Then just change the size (go to themes, ignore the warning and select the new size) - your text may have to be adjusted although going larger probably is ok

Change book size mid-design

I'm creating a book to print with blurb. I started on this project last year and I'm just getting around to finish it now, but I've designed the whole book to the wrong size. Is there any way to change the size of the book now? Or can you drag everything you've done on one book to another book to get it mostly there and then do the small size adjustments as needed?

Greetings,
With regard to human error apple haven't got an app for that yet.
Save the book as a pdf. As you have all the photos ready to go again change your book size and copy/paste the text from your pdf.
PS if you have been working on this for a year be careful that they don't bring out an extra extra large book before you finish it and have to start again.
Merry christmas hope it all works out for you
Chris

Change book size after design?

Is there any way to do this? I've created a book in Extra Large, then looked at the price and though, "maybe a smaller size would be OK, and cheaper." But I can't seem to find a way to change the book size. Is this not possible? Do I have to redo the book again?
thanks for any help

Create a copy of your book (select the book (not the images in it) in the library inspector panel, then go to "File >Duplicate Book".
Open the copy of the book and click the "Theme Button" in the upper left corner of the Book panel and pick a different theme. Select a different size.
Changing the Book size may modify some text fields. That is why I recommend to try this with a copy of the book.

Change TV plan but keep same internet

I have bundled FIOS TV and internet (Prime HD and 25/25, no phone) and would like to upgrade my TV but keep the same internet. Is that possible? In the upgrade center I'm not offered this option; I can keep the same TV plan and go up or down on my internet speed, but I can't change my TV plan and keep the same internet speed.
Is this on purpose or is it some kind of site glitch? Why can't I do this?

I am sorry, but Verizon no longer offers the 25/25 plan. We will still honor it as you currently have it and you will keep the 25/25 speeds as long as you don't make changes. If you do want to modify your bundle plan, you would have to change it to whatever bundle plans we currently offer.

Change book size/binding?

Is it possible to change a book, say from Hardbound large to softbound medium without making a complete new book from scratch? Looked everywhere but don't see it anywhere.
TIA
Len

TIA:
There have been warnings that you could lose text doing so. So I just make a duplicate of the book before trying. Select the book and type Command-D.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Help - Changing browser sizing but keeping pages looking normal

How do I make it so that if I change my screen resolution
from 800X600 to 1024X768 to 1280X800 and keep all the various
elements within my webpage in their proper places? I use layers
alot to keep picture and text in certain places but when I flick
between the latter two sizes mentioned above my pictures & text
go all over the place.
What is this called? and what do I do to implement it. My
deepest thanks in advance.

Making that change alone will not move the various elements
within the
webpage. The page will look exactly the same (only larger or
smaller) in
the same pixel width browser viewport on each of those
resolutions. What
will make things change is either changing the browser
viewport width, or
changing the text size in the browser, or both. And it will
do that on any
resolution.
Make sense?
> I use layers alot to keep picture and text in certain

This is the cause of your problem. Here's why -
http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layer-overlap.asp
> .
This is how those emoticons look to a large number of
readers. It's best to
just not use them.
Your best bet would be to eliminate the use of layers from
your page
building approach and learn how to rely on floats and the
normal flow of the
code to place your elements on the page. Please read this -

Change book size and cover

I have created a photo book with hardcover. Now I would like to create and print the same book with softcover and smaller size. Is this possible without re-creating the book?

select the book in the source pane on the left and duplicate it (command-D) and then click on the themes button and select the new size/style/theme -- closely inspect the book to be sure it is still corrcect (text may reflow due to size changes as may photo arrangement) - preview (
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it. ) and order if it is what you want

I have installed yosemite yesterday and photoshop elements 12 doens't work anymore: it opens, I can change doc size but no more... also screen size too large

Yesterday I have updated my mac with Yosemite since I try to work on PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12 but I cannot go further than opening documents and changing size. Screen is also too large but with Yosemite no mean to adapt it with the screen menu...
How can I recover the photoshop tools?

Unfortunately there is no option in PSE to vhange the UI fonts (other than switching to System Font' in preferences. So traditionally changing the Windows display font size has been the only workaround, and even that can cause problems with individual menus disappearing and being replaced with a hard to spot >> drop-down menu.
If you have a dual-display system you could have the menus on the lower resolution screen with images on the hi-res.
Cheers,
Neale

How do I change an image but keep the effects from the previous image?

I made a simple slideshow with 4 photos that are individually set to fade in and out in order. I have saved this as a new file and want to change the 4 images to different ones, but still keep the same effects settings. Seems like this should be really easy, but I just can't find a way to delete the photo without also losing the effects. Any help is much appreciated ... Thanks!!!

Your probably using tabbed document windows and photoshop cs2 had floating document windows.
Of course you can use File>Close (Ctrl+W) or click on the small X on the tab.
