Changing Book format

I was trying to change the theme on my Book from Large Hardcover to Large Softcover. It allows me to change the Book Type (size) but does not offer the same theme (Classic) with which I had originally created the Large Hardcover. Has anyone run into this problem or have a rememdy?

I could be wrong but I'm sure the reason is that softcover themes weren't available as an option in earlier versions of iPhoto (only hardcover). They were introduced I think with the release of iPhoto 5.
If you choose a hardcover book size from the Book Type pop-up menu you'll notice that the themes at the bottom of the scrolling themes list are listed under "Old Themes" (of which "Classic" is one). I've found that none of these themes are available in a softcover book size. They are a carry-over from earlier versions of iPhoto.
The closest theme I can find to "Classic" in the new (softcover also) themes is "Modern Lines". One downside to the new themes I have found is (except for "Folio") they do not allow for (automatic) captioning of individual photos like most of the old themes did. Instead, they provide an optional text area beneath the photos which has to be filled in manually.
Hope this answers your question

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 #.

Thanks for your reply. This video was recorded by my own professional camera, Sony PMW EX 3, two years back. But I am neither a professional cameraman nor an editor. I am just like a beginner in both. I didnt have space in my storage device, so I just copied all my clips, thinking I can edit it latter, without recompressing or editing or whatever I should have done it at that point of time. Now I need to edit it and use it in my profession. I am very upset. Please help me in going step by step to get it in FCP X for editing. Also I would like to know, do I need to buy the Compressor 4 for any reason. I dont mind in buying, if you think it is going to be useful for some reason. Thank you very much in anticipation for any kind of proper guidance.

How do you change the format of glossary terms?

Adding a country to the Change Address Format menu

I have someone who I wish to write to in Turkmenistan, so I'm using Address Book to create a label for him. However, Turkmenistan (like many other countries) is not listed on the menu of countries you can change the Address Format to on the Edit/Change Address Format submenu, when you click on the address type (home, work, etc).
Is there a way to add countries, or perhaps to specify Other/Not Listed and just use a single blank field to type in the address? When I try and enter a Turkmenistan address according to the USA label format, it looks misaligned and has a gap between the second to last and last lines of the address.
I've searched the forums and all the documentation already, but I can find nothing on this. Please help if you can!

This is what I was doing initially, but for some strange reason, when I paste the Cyrillic in from another document (as I cannot type it myself), the second line of the address gets shifted all the way to the left, outside of the actual editing field. I can't edit it or make it align properly at all, and it looks that way even on the saved Card. I think on the label, it looks fine, but I can't delete the City, State fields, so there's a gap between the major bulk of the address and the country.
It would be nice if there were a way to say what fields you want on a card- for example, drag and drop Street, or Address Line 1, Address Line 2, and delete fields you don't want- like State/Province. (This would negate the need of needing to pick a country's particular format, because you could rearrange it as you pleased, or as was proper for wherever you were writing). I'm just wondering if there's some way to do something to help me-- maybe change something in one of the plist files, or AppleScript? (Though I'd rather an easier solution, if I can get it done, that would be great.)

Problem changing address format

I live in Japan, and therefore have lots of Japanese addresses. When I imported these addresses into Address book, it automatically put them in 'Japan' address format (although I have UK format specified in the preferences). Japan format is more or less the opposite of UK or USA format, with post code and city first, and street address last.
However, Japan format is only used if the address is in Japanese script. Otherwise the addresses are written in UK format. Therefore, I set about changing the formats. However, when I change the format, Address Book automatically puts the words 'United Kingdom' in the country field. I then have to change it to 'Japan'. As I have about a thousand addresses, this is pretty infuriating.
Is there anyway to change this behaviour, so that the country is not automatically inserted?

Unfortunately you may have to clear out the country field before changing the format.

Change photobook format iPhoto from 21x28 to ExtraLarge

While working on a PhotoBook in iPhoto I noticed I forgot to change the format before starting to put pictures in.
Is it possible to change the format (21x28 now) to ExtraLarge keeping the pictures in the book at the same time?
I mean, i got a lot of pages done already and I don't want to do all the work again. Hope I made myself clear..
I pretty much want to know if I can change the format of a book that is "complete and full of pictures."
Thanks for the help!!

And from CMYK to RGB?
As Larry has already pointed out you can't change the color profile with iPhoto.
However, there's an Automator workflow/app that can convert a TIFF image file to a JPG file and embed the sRGB color profile at the same time. I've created one with Automator, Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile, that can be downloaded from Toad's Cellar.
To use it export the photos out of iPhoto as Kind = Original and drop them on the application. This will avoid applying jpeg compression to the file twice, once when exporting as a jpeg and again when converting with the application.

OAF changes Date Format

Hi
I need to store a date into a flexfield. We have enabled the Flexfield and there is NO value set attached to it.
This attribute is already in the VO as a varchar, so we have just added a new column into the page as data type Date and link it to the flexfield column.
In this page we have a table layout so the user can enter 10 rows before saving them. And this page it just used to punch data into a table, which means, once the user press apply the page saves and clears. The user can not query on that page.
When entering the first row, we can open the Date picker and we can choose the date and then it populates the column as “DD-MON-YYYY”.
The problem is:
When we entering the second row after entering one column the pages changes the format of my date from the previous record to “YYYY-MM-DD”, then after entering any second column the pages clear the date from the previous row.
Running the page from JDev it shows the following message before clears the flexfield:
java.text.ParseException: 2011-01-28
Note we have not extended the VO and not extended the controller.
My questions are:
1) Why the Self-Service is change the date format to YYYY-MM-DD even if the profile ICX: Date Format Mask (31-DEC-1999) and my preference is set to DD-MON-YYYY?
2) How can I avoid this to happen? Is there any way to keep my date as DD-MON-YYYY?
Thanks,
Alex

How to change the format of a cell in a web report

Hello experts,
Is it possible to implement this in a Web Report/BEx query?
We have a list of products grouped into Company A and Company B. One key figure is for example Net Cost Price.
We need to highlight the lowest net cost price in every company but with a different colour depending on the company assuming prices are sorted in ascending order.
We have been recommended to use Web Design Api for Tables but we understand that in order to format a cell content we need to know the axis position of the cell but we don't know how many rows the query will display for every company. Is this kind of requirements only possible with "static" reports where we know exactly the number of rows and columns that are going to be displayed?
This is an example.
COMPANY      PRODUCTS    NET COST PRICE
Company A    Product 1    <b>5</b>
             Product 2    10
Company B    Product 1    <b>10</b>
             Product 2    20
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Inma

Hi Inma,
If you have already not solved your problem , you can try the following solution with table interface class.
Table interface class generates HTML table row by row so it first process the charecterstics and then KFs .
You define a attribute(type public) in class and set that attribute to X (In CHARECTERSTIC menthod)when ever the company code changes.
Then make use of that flag in DATA method to change the format of cell (Assuming you sorted by Ascending).
hope this helps.

How can i change the Format of my DATE column?

I need to change the date format for a whole column. At present i can do MM-DD-YYYY. I need to change this this to DD-MMM-YYYY.
I know about the to_date function, i tried to apply it to change the format of my whole column by doing the following.....
CREATE TABLE "IT220_DATEHOLIDAY"
"DEPARTID" VarChar(2)NOT NULL ENABLE,
"HOLCODE" VARCHAR2(2)NOT NULL ENABLE,
"DEPARDATE" DATE,
to_date('DATE','DD-MMM-YYYY'), <<<change DATE column to DD-MMM-YYYY
CONSTRAINT "DATEHOLIDAY_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("DEPARTID") ENABLE
ORA-00902: invalid datatype <<<<This was the error message i received.
I am aware that the to_date function is supposed to be used to change strings into a certain format. I guess this means you cant do it with columns? Is there anyway i can format the whole column or do i have to do each string of data entered one by one?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Jay,
I'm not sure you hit the right forum, as this doesn't seem to be a problem with APEX.
Anyway:
You can't use that function on a table like that, and as you already suggested, the to_date-function expects a string value.
It seems you also have a misunderstanding of the basic datatypes in the database. DATE is such a datatype and is stored an internal format you don't need to care about. Each time your request the value, the database will give you a string representation according to either your locale or you give a certain formatting mask.
The same applies to insert or update operations: you hand in either a variable of type DATE or use a function like to_date to create an "object" of type date.
You may be interested in reading the documentation of the [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16508/toc.htm]Oracle Database Concepts. The section concerning datatype DATE can be found here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16508/tablecls.htm#CBBGJHJC
An overview of formatting options can be found here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/sql_elements004.htm#SQLRF00212
So to answer your question: You would format it as part of your insert operation, taking a string and convert it using to_date.

How to do (if possible) a bulk change of formats

Is there a way I can create a bulk change of formats? That is to say, I have six pages multiple frames of text (and graphics) with all kinds of different fonts, points, colors, effects etc.
I want to (as easily as possible) conduct a mass change where everything will be reformatted to (for example), Times new roman 12 point.
I would imagine I could create a paragraph style sheet and then go touch all the text boxes one at a time, but I was hoping for one click (ha ha ) and it is done.
Am I smoking funny stuff, or do I have to do it the old fashioned way. One text box at a time.
Bob

Bob,
InDesign "remembers" which values to change if you change the Paragraph Style, courtesy of this simple rule: If it is the same number in the text as in the style, it gets changed. Otherwise, it must've been some sort of override, and it's preserved.
Alt+clicking the paragraph style on your entire document resets
i everything
-- intended or not. Since that's what you wanted, no further problems. If you ever get into a spot where you
i don't
want to reset everything (because you manually fiddled), you can try this handy trick:
* find out what the "wrong" size is -- the one you want to kill.
* change the size in the paragraph style to the "wrong" size. Every paragraph with the style will get this applied. Exit the Paragraph Style options (so it will "take")
* Re-visit the Paragraph Style options and put in the right size. All and only the size overrides will have disappeared; the rest of your overrides stay in place.
This works with everything (as far as I'm concerned) you can change in Paragraph Styles, and as a matter of fact, also in Characters styles (and probably in Object styles and Table styles as well).
