Exporting a version question

Maybe I just don't understand Aperture yet but I have a question. When I export a version (and choose jpg) is it converting it from RAW to jpg for me or do I have to export the master and convert it in Photoshop's RAW converter? The reason I ask is because I like to fix my master in Aperture and then export it to PS to make a few more aditional changes. I don't want to lose my master RAW quality.
Does that make sense?
Any clarification would be a great help.
thanks

under preferences, (cmd+,) what file format do you have setup for external editor ??? i use tiff 300dpi and have no problems with anything in PS and they open at 16-bit - no place to change that pref ...
are you right-clicking -> open with external editor ??? this should create a version that opens in PS, and in aperture you will see a new badge like a bullseye ...
what things in PS can't you use ???
this 30 below crap is for the, well not the birds ... it really hampers the shooting outdoors, but hopefully it will make the door county shoreline very pretty for next weekend ... and the sea caves at the apostles should be very accessible and nicely frozen ...

How can I export several versions at the same time?

Greetings -
I'm looking for something that I may just be missing, and hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.
Basically, I'd like to be able to select an image in my library and export several versions at the same time. For example, I select a photo and export JPG, TIFF and PSD versions in one shot without having to run three separate export requests - essentially a batch action. I can't imagine that this isn't built in already - I'm just assuming that I'm missing something obvious.
Thanks in advance for any advice anyone might have.
John.

Fwiw, I've not seen this requested before.
This kind of Export option is very typical, Kirby, when the rendering of the exported version will take a long time, for example for video or audio. Then you can share several formats at once, to render a version suitable for the web, for viewing on the computer, or the iPhone at the same time. That is really useful, if you render a movie at a full HD resolution and don't have to do it again for an iPhone/iPod version.
QuickTime 7 does this for the "File > Export for Web" option, for example. You can get three versions of your final movie at the same time.
And I just checked, the new iMovie Theater does this as well, when sharing a movie to the Theater:
When you add a movie, trailer, or clip to the Theater, iMovie creates versions of your movie tailored for local playback, playback on an iOS device, and streaming.
Come to think about it - exporting a webpage from Aperture will also export thumbnail sized images plus a larger version for downloading.

Entered Verbiage not appearing in exported PDF version of form

Hello,
I have created an online application in Forms Central. It works great, but if the end-user enters too much verbiage in any of the sections, it is often cut-off in the exported PDF version. Is there a way to ensure all entered verbiage appears in the exported PDF version of the completed form?
Thank you.

I have created a .png logo to use on my video. It has it's own storyline so the logo is shown overthe whole video. Do I need to composite the logo storyline to the main storyline before exporting? Same question for the audio storyline.

Exporting Multiple Version at the same time to disc

Hi,
Is there any way that you can configure your export settings to export two versions of a 'version' at once?
For example, I normally supply clients with High and Low res duplications of an image set so that they have print and web versions ready to go.
I would like to set up some kind of configuration on Export where Aperture renders both the high and low res sets at once to the burn folder.
Its not a huge problem, but would simplify my workflow.
Also... does anyone use Burn to Disc? Is it worth the money?
Thanks for your help.

Didn't think about anyone in photography and Macs not having GC -- wonderful tool -- see:
http://www.lemkesoft.com/
There are commands to mass convert everything in a folder, and drop the conversions into the same or new folder. Has a modest cost, and the developer is amazingly responsive to suggestions, trouble-shooting, etc.
You might could do this with Preview, Photoshop Bridge, etc., but I have only relied upon GC for such.

How to import/export a version?

Hi,
how to import/export a version?

Not sure what you are asking here. If you are asking how to get data into DRM, then you are talking about the import process. If you are talking about how to get data out to other receiving systems, then you are talking the export process. Both of those processes are documented in the user help that comes with DRM.
If you are talking about an entire version, from say the PROD area to the DEV area, that process is dependent on what the database repository is stored in (ORACLE or SQL).

Colour Profile change after Exporting a version

Hi
Has any one had this problem - and found a solution?
My Aperture Preferences are set to - Adobe RGB 1998.
Now,
1     -     if I select an image in Aperture then select EDIT WITH ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
                 the image is opened in p/s
                    when I view the image in Bridge
                         the colour profile is correct - Adobe RGB 1998
Problem:
2     -     if I select an image, then EXPORT A VERSION (to my desk top)
                    the colour profile changes to sRGB   ?
                    Don't understand why this is happening - anybody know why?
                         Thanks
                              Tony (from London)

The color profile is part of the export preset as Keith pointed out
Make sure the preset you are using has the color profile you want.

Exported JPG Versions too small

Exported "original size JPGs" from Raw Masters. The file size I was expecting was between 3 and 5 MB but they come out 350kb more or less. If I choose double HD they come out around 1mb...
Any idea why this is?
Thanks for any help!

As you export the version and select the Original size Jpeg, go to the bottom of the list of presents and select edit. Then take a look at the pixel size that is chosen for the original size export. Perhaps that setting has been scaled back to a 800 x 600 or smaller. You can change the pixel size to match your original and go from there.

Export Aperture Versions

I am trying to export Aperture Versions of RAW images for use in iPhoto and will likely edit them with Elements in the future, but need counsel on the file type to use.
I believe iPhoto(8) handles RAW but curiously this format is not available in the output preferences, and selecting TIFF balloons the size considerably. For instance, an original RAW image of 10MB swells to 29MB.
I'm sure I am missing something plainly obvious, but need a nudge to get there.

As I understand it, the only way to create a RAW file is with a digital camera. Which is kinda the point, that a RAW file represents the image information/file straight off the sensor with NO modifications at all. That's why we value RAW files; they're untouched, unprocessed, unscrewed up, and represent a clean slate or blank canvas from which to start our processing, err, process. Thats why you can't export an adjusted image as a RAW file; as it's been adjusted, it's no longer the RAW original.
If you're looking for a way to export your original (untouched) RAW file you can choose Export Master from the file menu, and if your original was a RAW file (not a Jpeg etc), Aperture will spit a copy of the original RAW file to wherever you specifiy. You can then import that file into iPhoto, but you'll be starting from scratch in terms of processing that image in iPhoto.
Alternately, you can export a jpeg, tiff, .psd etc of your adjusted RAW file using Export Version, and import that into iPhoto. From your post it sounds like you should:
Open your RAW file in Elements using the Open in External Editor command (in the Image menu), perform your adjustments in Elements, and then save a copy to the desktop.
Then import that Elements .psd file into iPhoto and keep working on the image from within iPhoto.
But that seems to be missing the point of Aperture, and missing out on the advantages. You'll have created perhaps 50MB worth of extra files, spent lots of time in work arounds, and seems to relegate Aperture to an image viewer like Adobe Bridge. It's like buying a new car so you've got a handy drinks holder or because you need some storage space about the size of a glove compartment, and what do you know, that new Honda has a glove compartment!
Keep all your adjustments in Aperture, you'll save space, time and hassle. If you absolutely need all the whizzbang Photoshop stuff Photoshop does, then storing, keywording and holding the file in iPhoto sounds like the best bet. From there you can take the image into and back from Elements when you need to, but each time it'll create a 25-50-ish MB Photoshop file.
Bummer huh? Which is why we have Aperture
I've never shared libraries between iPhoto and Aperture (or vice versa), but understand there are ways too (perhaps only the previews though), but maybe someone else can offer more info here?

IPhoto 9.5.1 will not export edited versions of my photos.

I cannot export edited versions of my photos (specifically cropped photos) in iPhoto 9.5.1 using Mavericks. This is driving me nuts. I've tried duplicating the photos, saving them in different formats . . . no dice. This is very annoying. Without photo editing, iPhoto is pretty useless.

You can use 3rd party editors from within iPhoto. Here are some of those:
Some Image Editors That Support layers:
Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
Rainbow Painter - $30
Imagerie - $38
Acorn - $50
Pixelmator - $60
Seashore - Free
GIMP for Mac - Free
Xee 2.1 - free
I would suggest you try one of the free ones and make sure that iiPhoto will export the edited version before you purchase an editor. The following is for Photoshop Elements but would be applicable to most of the editors listed above, particularly the part about keeping the file extension as jpeg and not one created by the editor.
Using Photoshop Elements or Photoshop as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

Export of Version doesn't contain changes to image

Hi,
I have aperture 3.5.1 and I have a problem exporting images. I have done some changes on my images such as sharpness and Red Eye Reduction and when I export a version out of Aperture these changes have disapeared on the exported versions. I only use RAW (=NEF) files. I need the picture for an Photoalbum in JPEG.
Can somebody explain to me what I do wrong?

Hi Alex,
Léonie has responded in your thread. You are in very good hands .
Aperture works well for tens of thousands of users. We are happy to help you find out why it is not working the way you expect it to. While your disappointment is understandable, it adds nothing to the process of trouble-shooting. And since we are all just users here, freely helping others make the most of software sold for a profit that in no way at all benefits us, whining is misplaced, and unlikely to further your cause.
Just my $0.02.
Note that "rebuild" and "repair" are two distinct actions. "Repair" might be thought of as a kind of check-up maintenance. I run it regularly on all my Libraries. "Rebuild" should not be needed, or used, regularly. I mention this because I recommended "repair" but your responded by talking about "rebuild".

I'm trying to export my masters to use in Lightroom, can't get the ratings to export. Tried writing the IPTC to masters and exporting with an IPTC4XMP file, no luck. These are all .jpg files. The ratings export OK if I export the versions. Any suggestions

I'm trying to export my Aperture masters to use in Lightroom, can't get the ratings to export. Tried writing the IPTC data to the masters and adding the IPTC4XMP file when exporting, neither worked. The ratings show up in Lightroom if I export the versions. These are all .jpg's that I am exporting. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks

There are two problems here:
1) Aperture does not modify its "original" files on export. Meaning with the JPEG files that Aperture will NOT modify them, and it will not write IPTC data to them. It exports the XMP sidecar files, as you're seeing.
2) Adobe will NOT read IPTC sidecar files for non-RAW images. So if it sees a JPEG file, it will not look for an XMP sidecar file. It just doesn't read them, so the data won't be imported by Lightroom.
If you are using JPEG files, then probably the solution is to check the box in Aperture to tell it to write XMP metadata to the original files. They're not RAW files, so they're not proprietary in any way, so writing the XMP metadata to the JPEG files is probably pretty safe.

Some photos won't export as versions

A proportion of photos from various projects won't export as versions, either JPGs or TIFFs. The files themselves aren't corrupt as I can open them in Photoshop and then save them as JPG or TIFF files or whatever I want. I though it might be library that was corrupt but I rebuilt the library and the probem still persists and with the same photos.
I have my library stored on a RAID system. I've stored it before on a RAID setup but always using Apple's formatting software to RAID the HDs together. This is a hardware RAID system so the computer reads it as 2TB when it's really two 1TB drives together. It is then formatted with the standard Apple DIsc Utility. This is the only difference from before and I've never had the problem until now.
Could this be the problem? Could fragmented files on this drive be the problem? Any suggestions welcome.

The way you have described your issues sounds like you are running a referenced library where you have easy access to the files through the finder. Is it possible that in the process of accessing files through the finder that some have been moved or had attributes changed? The way to identify this is by the badges that Aperture displays on an image, pg.291 of the manual see below.
To display badge overlays on images in the Viewer:
1 Do one of the following:
Â Choose View > Metadata > Customize (or press Command-J).
Â Choose Aperture > Preferences, then click Metadata.
2 Select the Viewer checkbox.
3 From the Viewer Set 1 pop-up menu, choose a metadata view that includes badge
overlays. Some examples are General and Ratings, as well as Viewer-Basic and
Viewer-Expanded.
4 Close the Preferences window.
Badges are now visible in the Viewer.

How do I export TIFF versions of my images?

Just starting to play with the demo. How do I export TIFF versions of my images? Will I need to open RAW files in different application, such as Canon Digital Photo Professional?

No,
Just right click and choose "export version" there will be a ton of options and you can make your own presets from there as well.
