Iphoto printing - preview is landscape, but prints out portrait

This is a recurring issue when I print photos. The preview shows a landscape oriented picture, but it prints in portrait orientation. How do I correct this?
The settings for the current photo are as listed:
Brother MCF-J425W
US Letter
Color
Aspect Ratio: Custom
Photo Size: 4.8 x 6.8
iPhoto 9.6
OX S Yosemite

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try printing again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

Hey everyone,
Pics loaded into iphoto or preview show up in the programs and my desktp, but won't let me edit.
Thanks, Woody

How are you trying to edit?
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

What could cause a printer to print in Landscape but not in Portrait mode?

Hello gurus,
We recently migrated our application from windows to linux. Specs are as follows
OS: RHEL 6
DB: 11.2.0.3
App: 12.1.3
Upon testing it was noticed that Oracle Applications successfully prints output files if they are in landscape mode but no output is received at the printer if the output is of portrait type.
The request ids show status 'Completed Normal' in both the cases.
Also printing directly from linux results in successful prints for both landscape and portrait.
The same issue exists when defining type as '--PASTA Universal Printer Type' or 'HPLJ4'
Any idea what files or settings could be causing this behaviour?

My spreadsheet is set for landscape but shows portrait in "print view". How do I fix this?

My spreadsheet in Numbers is set for landscape but appears as portrait in "print view". What am I doing wrong?

Where are you seeing "print view?" Using the little paper icon at the bottom left of your document turns print view on & off & that is also where you can set portrait or landscape. The default is landscape.

IPhoto won't print in portrait mode

since upgrading to yosemite, iPhoto won't print in portrait mode; it automatically prints everything in landscape

I am trying to crop a portrait photo into 6x4 portrait ready for printing. Iphoto only crops it landscape and therefore cuts out most of the photo. Is there any way of resolving this?

I am trying to crop a portrait photo into 6x4 portrait ready for printing. I am using Iphoto on a Macbook Pro. Everytime I try and crop the photo, it crops in Landscape which cuts out most of the photo. Is there any way of resolving this? I am new to Macs as I am currently switching from MS. It is very easy to do this in MS photo editor so I can't believe it can't be easily done in Iphoto!

These are the two steps that Larry describes:

Can't Print Book from iPhoto or Preview, but Can Print from Adobe Accrobat

I have spent 2.5 hours on the phone with HP, an am now unsure if the problem is with HP or Apple.
When I try to print a single page from an iPhoto Book (or a group of pages), I receive an error message on the HP 4650 printer (49.4C02). I saved the book as a PDF and tried to print from Preview with the same results. I then opened the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat and WAS able to print. I am able to print individual photos from iPhoto.
I searched this discussion board for problems printing to the HP 4650. One suggestion was to use the driver for the HP 4600. I tired that and it produced the same error on the printer.
Using Adobe Acrobat is a viable work-a-round, but I am curious why I cannot print a book from iPhoto. Any thoughts as to why Adobe Acrobat works and iPhoto and Preview do not?
Thanks,
-Dale

HP has _ a firmware release that addresses this error _ - have you installed it?

Hi everyone. I have just started having problems with iCal. Events that I thought I had deleted are appearing on Print Preview and on print outs. Likewise Events which I have not deleted have disappeared from my calenders, but appear in print preview.

Hi everybody. I have recently started having problems with iCal (Version 2.05 (1069). Events that I thought I had deleted appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. Likewise Events that I have not deleted have disappeared from my calender (Month View) but appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. I see that there have been similar problems with Events disappearing especially in Month View. I wondered how print preview seemrd to be picking everything up deleted or not, and what the solution may be?. First time of Posting. I hope I haven't embarassed myself.

Hmmmm.
At the very least there must be a "com.apple.ical.plist"...iCal would not function without it.
Click on the Finder icon in the dock
Click on Go > Home
Double-click Library
Double-click Preferences
Look for a file called "com.apple.ical.plist" and remove it to the trash.

Print preview ok but a field missing in print out

Hi Experts,
Recently we did an upgrade from 4.6C to ECC5.0 . We are facing a strange problem, one particular field ( along with value ) is not appearing in the print out
from a particular printer . Everything comes fine in the print preview and the print outs are also perfectly ok from all the printers except this particular printer .
The same printer gives correct output in the older version .
Could you please give any pointers to this issue ?
Thanks,
~Abap Lover

Hi
Could you please look at the style attached with the form maybe the extra field comes with a different font that is not installed in the ECC 5.0 version so it is replacing by some other font which is not there in the printer.
Hope that Helps

Why Does iPhoto 08 Crop Print Outs ???

Hi. I would appreciate a little help here.
I am trying to print out some 8" x 10" photos with borders, in landscape paper orientation, using an Intel Dual Core iMac, Mac OS 10.4.11, iPhoto 08 ver 7.1.2, approved HP Printer and HP Driver, on 8 1/2" x 11" HP Premium Photo Paper, at maximum dpi.
File resolutions are generally:
1600 x 1200 (2 Mega Pixels, 4:3 image aspect ratio, 395 KB file size),
2048 x 1536 (3 Mega Pixels, 4:3 image aspect ratio, 790 KB file size),
2560 x 1920 (5 Mega Pixels, 4:3 image aspect ratio, 2.2 MB file size), and
3264 x 2448 (8 Mega Pixels, 4:3 image aspect ratio, 3.6 MB file size).
The problem I'm having is that iPhoto prints the photo by cropping approx 1/4" off the left side and 1/2" off the right side of the screen image without indicating there will be any loss of image content. The screen image DOES NOT accurately reflect the printed image.
Like most people that take pictures, I frame the shots the way I wanted the picture to look. In a picture of a family reunion the person on the far left would have half his head and body chopped off (missing) while the person on the far right would be totally cut out (missing). What I see on the screen IS NOT what I get when printed out. And of course, it does this consistently without warning. Why?
I would accept uneven borders, but want the entire picture to print. Something I would have thought to be the default settings for iPhoto when printing "with borders." Foolish me.
I understand some cropping might have to take place when printing "border-less" printouts, but not for those "with borders." There out to be a law against doing this without conscent.
HP PhotoSmart will do this for me, but it's rather a hassle to have to transfer pictures over each time I want a satisfactory print out.
How do I get my pictures in iPhoto 08 to print out "entirely?" Dare I say "normally?"
Have tried many settings changes in iPhoto and Preview to no avail.
Please help.

Hi LarryNH,
Thanks for your timely reply.
Ok, let's do the math. What the heck?
Pick out a photo in your iPhoto library that you can view and print out in Landscape View.
Preferably a photo that you can instantly recognize the border changes in, or with rulers or grid lines. If possible, let's make it an image with a 4:3 ratio too.
Chances are you will be able to see the entire photo on your screen — even though your screen mostly likely is not one with a 4:3 image aspect ratio (pixel Width divided by pixel Height). Hmmmmmm.
Now print out the photo using iPhoto 08, letter paper size with borders. (Save yourself some ink by choosing the lowest dpi or fast printing)
For me, actual image size was 10 1/16 "W by 8 1/4 "H. The letter paper size print out has a 5/16 " border on the left and a 5/8 " border on the right (not centered, even though it's supposed to be). Both top and botton borders measure 1/8 " (centered, like its supposed to be).
Notice any chopping off of the image on the left and right sides when compared to the screen image? Hmmmmm.
When I print the same photo using HP PhotoSmart
For me, the actual image size is somewhat smaller: 9 13/16 "W by 8 3/8 "H. The letter paper size print out has a 9/16 " border on the left and a 10/16 " border on the right (approximately centered). The top border is 1/2 " and the botton border ise 9/16 " (again, approximately centered). BUT MOST IMPORTANT, the image of the photo I see on the screen is "entirely" present on the print out.
The original photo has a 4:3 (or 1.3333) image ratio (4 divided by 3).
Apple is printing out an incomplete horizontally uncentered image with a 1.2197 ratio (10 1/16 "W divided 8 1/4 "H).
HP PhotoSmart is printing out a complete image with a 1.1716 ratio (9 13/16 "W divided by 8 3/8 "H), but at least it is a complete image and it is approximately centered.
Besides Larry, I bought a Mac. I shouldn't have to do the physics and math. Apple should be, thus making life easier for you and me. I hope they're listening.
I have been totally unable to coax a complete image out of iPhoto, let alone one properly centered.
I have been trying to print photos from Events. I'm going to try one from Albums next.
If you find a work around in iPhoto, please let me know. With borders it is do-able, as HP PhotoSmart has proven. I just wish iPhoto could do the same.
Got-A-Question

Anyone has print out the iPhoto album book by apple after finish editing? May I check is the quality good? I have compiled my photo album book , choosen hard cover option , 100 pages , estimated cost is US150. Not sure worth to print out or not?

Anyone has print out the iPhoto album book by apple after finish editing? May I check is the quality good? I have compiled my photo album book , choosen hard cover option , 100 pages , estimated cost is US150. Not sure worth to print out or not?

All I can say is the books I've created as gifts to my children for their children were received with absolute joy and appreciation (each book chronicled in pictures the first year of each grandchild's life). Granted the sentimental factor had a lot to do with the recipient's enjoyment of the book but they were spetacular. The book with its glossy dust cover is a very impressinve way to present your photos.
As Larry has pointed out so many have posted here that they were very satisfried with their book and Apple is very good about correcting problems.
To make sure there are no errors in the book before you order preview the book as described in this Apple document: iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it. If the PDF file shows no errors, either in text typos (my biggest problem) or in missing photos, etc., the printed book will be error free.

In PO script values not flowing in Print out ( print preview is ok)

hi,
I am modifying MEDRUCK so that I can place a new Window to display PO text . I am using FM 'READ_TEXT' to get the PO text . In print preview I can display the PO text, but in print out PO text is missing . Can you please help me .
Regards ,
Antony .

Hi
The following statements in the Main window of Medruck are responsible for printing the Header and Item texts of the PO
Header_Text
/: INCLUDE &T166K-TXNAM& OBJECT &T166K-TDOBJECT& ID &T166K-TDID& LANGUAGE LANGUAGE &EKKO-SPRAS& PARAGRAPH IX
Item_text
/: INCLUDE &T166P-TXNAM& OBJECT &T166P-TDOBJECT& ID &T166P-TDID& LANGUAGE &EKKO-SPRAS& PARAGRAPH IX
And they are maintained under the text elements HEADER_TEXT and ITEM_TEXT
so if you want these texts to be printed in your window corresponding text elements have to be used along with the Include statements

Firefox will not print in portrait mode; landscape stuck even in preview mode

Firefox will not allow printing of a web page in portrait mode. Even print preview selecting portrait shows only landscape printing preview. Tried uninstalling printer, installing Firefox 4, no luck. Printing in portrait mode works fine using IE8 but I'd rather stay with Firefox.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
George

Pages version?
Does the printer driver match the MacOS system?
