EXIF fileds missing when exporting versions

This may be a stupid question, but I cannot find the solution for some reason. When I export a version, some EXIF fields are just not kept (like Lens Model). Is there some sort of metadata preset to apply at export? I just have not been able to find anything in the interface or manual that is helping much.

No such thing as a stupid question.
Lens Model is technically not an EXIF field (check the specification) and therefore won't be found in a TIFF or JPEG file. The solution is for Apple to support embedding XMP into JPEGs and TIFFs on export.

In aperture 3.4.5, I get unsupported file error when exporting version of photo I've edited using plugins?

In aperture 3.4.5, I get unsupported file error when exporting version of photo I've edited using plugins. I have try reinstalling aperture three times, deleting plists a few times, reinstalling plugins, restarting my MacBook Pro many times. Everything I've tried may fix the problem for a very short while and I can export a few photos before it returns. The problem happens with topaz and photomatrix pro plugins after I edited and try to export version.

I had the same problem with the Photomatix plug-in and this solved it for me. I realised it only happened with Photomatix and not other plug-ins so I checked where the plug-ins were installed. The Photomatix plug-in was installed in
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/
where ~ is the home location for the current user account. All the other plug-ins however were installed in
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/
which is the location that makes them available to all user accounts on your Mac. Moving the Photomatix plug-in to this location solved the problem for me.
Note that the Library directory under the first location is normally hidden, to get to it hold down the Option (Alt) key and select it from the Finder Go menu.

When exporting versions (from DNG-to JPEG org size) they get very smal?

when exporting versions in aperture (from DNG-to JPEG org size) they get very smal? Why cant they stay the same size and kvalety as the DNG?

How are you exporting? If you are dragging the image out of Aperture you get the preview, you are not exporting the version.
If you are exporting then the most likely reason for what you see is the setting on the Quality slider. Remember JPG images are compressed and you will always see a difference between the original and the exported JPG.

Objects missing when exporting to PDF, but show up when printing to PDF

Hi - I'm working with someone, both of us in InDesign CS4, and she has some documents that cause a few random objects to just go missing when exported to PDF (same on my computer). But when printing to PDF, they show up fine. They also show up fine if we recreate each individual object, but that can end up being a lot of work. She prefers to export to PDF because of quality. I'm drawing a blank on this one!
The attached file shows the issue. The green blocks just don't want to show up when exporting.

Peter -
The links are just the PDFs of the black and white portions and don't really matter too much since they show up fine when exporting or printing to PDF. Our main concern is the green blocks, which are indeed the green areas of the plan you pointed out. They are actually separate objects created directly within InDesign that can be moved and adjusted.
I just updated to 6.0.4 and that didn't help. I wonder if this may be a variant of the bugs I was reading about with master pages and certain things not showing up when creating PDFs or printing (even though none of these things are on the master page)?
Thanks

EXIF data filtered when exporting to Flickr

I've noticed that some EXIF data seems to be filtered out when exporting photos to Flickr via Aperture's built-in Flick exporter.
For example, if I export same photo using Flickr's upload page, then using Aperture's built-in Flickr exporter, then re-download original back to my computer, the fields like "lens size" are missing from the copy exported by Aperture.
There's few other fields that are silently filtered out by Aperture. Looking at the differences between two copies of the same photo re-downloaded back from Flickr, examples include fields such as digital zoom, subject distance, focus mode, macro mode, firmware version, serial number, owner name (and the list goes on)...
While one could argue that some fields contain personal information, there's my real name on my Flickr account, so having serial number or owner name in EXIF data removed is kind of pointless for my use case. Also, there's tons of photos I exported in the past to various photo sharing sites containing these headers anyhow.
I'd really like to preserve some interesting and useful (technical) fields such as lens size or subject distance. Is there a way to tell Aperture "I don't care, the world already knows this stuff, don't filter EXIF info when exporting"?

Hi Raja,
Not sure, what version are you in, but must not be in latest.
You have to write a e-text to get csv/txt of the desired format.
By default, if you are not in latest version, you will see some data when you select csv without E-text template

Background missing when export to PDF CS5.5

Hi,
I have seen some similar posts (all non-current) to the one I am writing however, my issues are not solved by the solutions posted in previous discussions.
My problem is that when I am exporting an IND file to PDF, when I open the PDF all of my background images are missing. In most examples this is a full page black box. But since testing this problem I have encountered the same issue with any colour and some photographs.
I am working in CS5.5, with all software up to date (version 7.5.3)
I have tested this in new documents and old documents that previously would have exported the background.
These items are not on master pages. I have tested this on brand spankin new pages and existing ones (with and without any elements on master pages)
I have tested the boxes with and without transparency.
There is no issue with overprint or the overprint preview check box.
I have tried saving the file as an .IDML and reopening to see if it will 'debug' the file. I have exported the PDF as every kind of option. I have restarted the computer and the program several times. I have checked for new updates.
The only way that I have 'cracked' this issue so far is to break the one large background image into at least 3 overlapping solid boxes. It seems that you cant have any box overlap more than 2 page boundaries.
Is anyone else having this problem or any other advice on what to try.
Thank you

Hi Eugene,
The document in question is 1) not using master pages and 2) not using spreads. Its a single page A4 document.
Hi Peter,
Sorry I am not trying to span two pages. My comment was that the graphic box seems to glitch when it touches more than 2 boundaries of the page ie left right top bottom.
I am using the full creative suite CS5.5, no hacks, no substitute programs.
I have attached a few screen captures.
Sample file in indesign:
Screen capture when exported to PDF:
split the background box into 2 (i have used 2 blacks so you can see the boundary). Export to PDF:
Second example - black background with photo over top. In indesign:

First four seconds of audio missing when exporting project as MPEG2

Hello all-
When I export my project from FCP (using version 6.0.6) using Compressor's (v. 3.0.5) MPEG2 Program Stream setting, everything works fine except for one slight problem: the first four seconds of audio are missing. I've looked back over my timeline (NTSC-DV with 4 tracks of 48khz 16bit audio), everything is fine, and the audio exported just fine using the H.264 codec. I've tried everything I can think of. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much,
Brett

Well I REALLY need some help with this one! I have tried so many different 'work arounds' without success. As mentioned in my first post the audio is not sync'ing with the video when exported. I have tried Exporting the file in QuickTime, I have tried using Compressor again exporting just the video then the audio - pulling it into a new session and lining it up again but everytime I pull it the newly exported file into a new project and render it FCP crashes not allowing it to render (nice!). I actually started from square one capturing the video footage again and assemble the project again without luck. I simply cannot believe what a pain in the arse this is!! I need to get this project done and it simply won't do it.
Where are my blood pressure pills????

IMovie: Some parts of audio is missing when export?

When I play it inside iMovie, it works.
But then when it is export, either to iTunes, YouTube or MP4 format,
some parts of the audio is missing.
What should I do?

Looks like the 8.0.4 update to IPhoto may have broken its "share to iDVD" and Export functionality. There are a few Apple.com discussions on this topic.
I found that if I chose "Play each slide for a minimum of x seconds" and altered the duration of showing some slides, the audio would be missing when I exported the slideshow to iDVD.
However, using exactly the same music track from iTunes, if I chose the option to "Fit slideshow to music" then the audio worked perfectly when I exported to iDVD.
Dear Apple, can this please be fixed?

Aperture locks up when Exporting Versions

After upgrading from 2.1.2 to 2.1.3, whenever I export versions Aperture locks up until the export completes and I cannot do anything in the meantime. Sometimes this is accompanied by the SPOD and sometimes not. Also, the time taken to export varies greatly, by up to a factor of 3.
In effect, all these problems mean that I don't have background processing which was one of the big improvements of v2.1.
Regards,
Terry

I'm having the very same problem. This is bad news. I upgraded to Mavericks last week, and then had to update Aperture. Now it says my 400+GB library has to update, and then at the end it won't complete. I've done this with a three months older copy of the library.
Apple, you need to figure this out--I'm a working professional and now I don't have access to 4-5 years worth of work--this is serious. My library appears to be corrupted.

Double image when exporting versions

Hi, I exported a version of a RAW file to PS CS2 for editing with no problems but subsequently all other versions I exported from Aperture will have a double image of the initial file sandwiched together regardless whether I open it with Preview or PS. However, there are no such problem if I drag the thumbnail from Aperture to Desktop before opening it.
What have I done wrong???

Hi Firstlaunch,
what I did was wrong. I should have used "Open with external editor" instead of "Export Versions", which is low res jpegs in my preference setting. Anyway, I then open these jpegs with PS CS2 and got on with my editing. The edited pics are then re-imported to Aperture and that's where the problem began. All exported jpegs from then on will have a double-image/multi exposure of the first pic I exported.
I can't show you screen shot cos I've since trashed all the file on Aperture and re-installed everything. I still don't know what caused the problem but I'm doing it the right way now and everything's fine. Thanks.

When you export to excel, the character fields and numeric columns gets re-arranged, but all the fields will be displayed in this case.
hope this helps.

Part of logo missing when exporting to PDF

I'm running ID CS6 and Acrobat Pro X.
When I export a document as a PRINT or INTERACTIVE pdf, part of my logo goes missing. The funny thing is that our design team are all running the same programs and 3 of our members can view the logo completely, the other 4 see half of the logo missing, I can see the logo just fine.
• The logo mark is visible, but the typography that is part of the logo is missing?! And it's a single grouped object in Illustrator.
• We've compared the settings on our teams' programs and on my ID program as well, and nothing seems be remotely related to the issue.
• Finder on Mac shows mixed visibility in file preview on different computers. Some show, some don't.
• In the past, I've been able to place vector objects from Illustrator into Indesign completely fine. I prefer vector over image because it allows me scaling flexibility.
• I have not changed any settings on my program between the time I was able and not able to do this. I don't understand why different people are getting different results on their screens. And in a couple of occasions, it has happened to one of our team members and it fixed itself mysteriously.
I would like to provide screen shots, but it is a private design.
One key note to realize is that the logo is completely outlined and grouped as a single object. I then save the logo into the same folder as the ID file (tried both, .EPS and .AI) and placed it (CMD+D) into InDesign. Both files are CMYK files.
I then make my PDF by hitting (CMD+E) to export, choose PDF Print. On the PDF settings, I choose [High Quality Print], compatible with Acrobat 5 and beyond, uncheck optimize for web, include bleeds, no color conversion.
I've had issues in the past where hidden layers in an .AI are still visible in the PDF. The .AI is imported into InDesign then exported as PDF... The hidden layers from the .AI preview in Finder, but then vanish when opening the PDF...so buggy.
Make any sense?!...

Similar to Mikey's response… If the logo has a spot color in it and it overlaps any raster image (or vice versa), then the overlapping part will appear white if "Overprint Preview" is turned off in Acrobat. This is really a bug. One possible fix is to export the PDF as an PDF/X-4:2010 in the "Standard" drop down—this preserves all transparency layering without flattening.
This issue causes frequent headaches and confusion in my workplace, especially since a lot of people want/need to hold on to the PDF/X-1a standard, which flattens the artwork.

How to hide EXIF (not IPTC) when export from LR3

I am exporting some hi-res images from LR3 (to send to one of my clients) and I need to hide my EXIF (camera settings etc) data completely BUT keep the IPTC (keywords, copyrights etc) data intact. Is there any way I could do that with in LR3 or with the help of a 3rd party plugin/software? When I click "Minimize embedded Metadata" it only removes IPTC not EXIF.

Hi,
I am exporting my report to csv but it gets saved as .txt,when i open the .txt file i dont see any data and it is blank.The same can be viewed in pdf and rtf
Any inputs on this.

Hi Raja,
Not sure, what version are you in, but must not be in latest.
You have to write a e-text to get csv/txt of the desired format.
By default, if you are not in latest version, you will see some data when you select csv without E-text template
