Light Table: missing images on certain page sizes

I have a light table with about 20 images from a D200 on it.
I go to print it, and all the images show up if I select Letter size paper. If I change the paper size to 13x19, one of the images doesn't show up in the preview of the light table. I thought, "ah, it's just a display/preview anomaly" so I went ahead and printed it. Guess what? That one photo really did drop out.
Even odder, if I save to PDF, 6 images drop out!
Anyone else see this? I'm on Aperture 1.0.1.

Good news. *crosses fingers*
So far I have not been able to reproduce this in Aperture 1.1.

*Light Table & Disappearing Images*

I created a light table, moved images in, cropped them, arranged them and printed. Everything worked as advertised except one of the images was rather stubborn about the correct crop size, had to reset a few times.
Came back the next day and all the images have the yellow triangle. A search for the images results in them not being found. They have disappeared from my drive.
I have been using Aperture since V1.1 and am continually managing referenced files.

You use the 'Aperture menu > Aperture Feedback' item to load the page.
You then select the type of feedback (in this case a 'Bug Report') from one of the drop-downs and type in your issue (I usually link to a thread when possible).
There are a number of technical drop-down lists for machine, OS, version, etc. and then submit.
Although I don't work for Apple, I know that typically; the reports are viewed by the software team and prioritized by quantity of received reports for the same and they usually try to reproduce the issue.
If they can reproduce the issue easily and consistently, it should go on the list for fixes in the next update (if possible).
Note - I agree that this may be isolated to just us, but I do not run anything modified (pretty much vanilla settings with all software) so I reported it to at least get it looked at.

Firefox not loading images on certain pages

All of a sudden, Firefox no longer loads images on certain pages. I updated to 32.0.3. yesterday so thought that was the problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled 32.0.3. but that didn't help. I deactived the add-ons, but that didn't help either. I then installed FF 31, but the problem persists. I don't have the problem with Safari.
I'm lost ….
P.S. I had to upload the image via Safari, didn't work via Firefox

Your System Details list shows that you were only allowing images from the originating page and were blocking third-party images hosted on other servers.
*permissions.default.image: 3
These days a lot of sites store content on other dedicated servers, so it is best to leave such a setting at its default of 1 to allow all images.

Aperture Light Table - Poor image quality

I am using the Light Table function in Aperture (3.4.5.) and I had an issue with the quality of the images on it, when zoomed in or scaled to fit.
The quality of the (larger spread) images looks poor. As if I zoomed in on a thumbnail.
I was looking for a discussion on this and saw some (archived) threads. None of them solved.
However, I think I have found a workaround.
If you get this situation, you can select the image(s) on the light table and regenerate the preview.
Option-click Menu => Photos => Generate Previews
(note: if you don't use the Option key, you will get Menu => Photos => Update Previews and Aperture may say (unjust) that the preview is already up-to-date).
That solves the poor image quality look.

I just remade the same book - as a test - in the extra large hardback format (ie. the one I used for the previous publication, last year).
This time, the pictures are fine. The images appear to be the same quality in the PDF as the originals - much, much better. The size of the file has increased massively too > up from just 2.6MB to 52.8MB.
So does the books production function work well only with the biggest, most expensive option?
I'd really appreciate some feedback from anyone who's tried the different sizes, and preferably some brilliant ideas to make them all work equally well.

Light Table - blurred images (bug)

As per this previous thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/12871298#12871298), which has now been archived, I've found that zooming all images on a Light Table (using the slider) results in larger, but completely blurred images.
The images themselves are fine in preview, and if you choose a single image on the Light Table and drag its corner to make it larger, then it scales up just fine - greater resolution as it grows.
I have submitted a bug report through the Aperture menu, and I would encourage everyone others to do the same if they're experiencing this.

I have already reported the bug (as per your linked thread).
Of note is that I was at the local University Village Apple store here in Seattle last weekend and confirmed this bug on the best 27" iMac (current model) they had in the store using the sample library in AP3.
That machine had the ATI graphics chip and my machine has the nVidia 8800 GT, so I at least verified it is not specific to my hardware.
Dragging images onto the light table displayed the same 'low quality' thumbnail issue I have seen since updating from AP 3.0.2 to 3.1.x.
Scaling the images up seemed to improve the image quality, but this then utilizes too much viewable area of the light table to use for real layout option work (even on the 27" screen at Apple store).
Here is the thread I posted as well in case anyone has interest in the troubleshooting I have already tried:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/13298420#13298420
Thanks for bringing this up again.
Still waiting for someone to actually post that it works correctly for them at all thumbnail sizes in the Light Table function using AP 3.1.x.
I will also send another bug report and include my test at Apple store in the report.

Light Table - poor images

I am using a light table to t ry some photo layouts.
However the quality of the photos when viewed I
From the table are ver poor, very fuzzy even when only zoomed in a little.
The actual photos themselves are RAW shot with a 5D and are perfect so cannot understand the image in the light table.
Any thoughts out there on this?
Cheers

Show/hide lots of layer, image swaps and page size

Hi - I am working on a webpage that requires 39 thumbnails to
show 39 large
images when clicked and to also show some text on mouseover -
take a look.
http://www.redsea.co.nz/lipitor/slidekit.shtml
I have been asked to use scrolling divs to house the
thumbnails and so i
have.
I'm working through the image behaviours (up to slide no. 10
you'll see) and
I'm wondering if there is a better way to do all this. 39
rollover show/hide
layers and image swaps seems very laborious to me, not to
mention the page
is getting far too heavy........
Anyone got any better ideas? (apart from a dynamic page) -
all thoughts much
appreciated.
Also, any other issues spotted around this site please let me
know, I'm
supposed to have this finished by monday am..
Thanks in advance
Karen

Yes, I have a better idea. Use the ShowPic extension from
PVII -
http://www.projectseven.com/,
or even do it yourself with the SetTextOfLayer
behavior in DW -
http://dreamweaverresources.com/tutorials/settextoflayer.htm
Either of those would be much better ways, since the page is
not encumbered
with the weight of all of the enlarged images UNTIL you click
on the
corresponding thumbnail.

Shrink image frames with page size?

Is it possible to gave the image frames I have laid out in-line thorughout a book to auto shrink proportionately with a page dimension change?
Thomas

Have a look in the layout adjustments policies.
Also how did you set up the used object styles for the image's frames.

Is there a way to create a postscript file in InDesign for a certain page size without a printer?

I need to set up a postscript file for my book to take it to print but I can set up the print settings for 11 by 17 in. paper. Is there a way to get around this?
I am using a mac with cs6.

Is your print service provider requiring a PostScript file? Normally, they would require PDF with any reasonably modern workflow.
The print to PostScript Printer and Device Independent option is very limited. If there is a particular device your print service provider is using and requires PostScript for, they should be providing a particular PPD for you and thus, allow you to customize the PostScript for that device.

Select images for a book from a light table?

Hi,
the light table seems to be a good place to group pictures, set relative sizes and define some general ordering. Once I have done that using the light table, I want to create a book based on the light table. One way would be to create a new empty book and drag pictures from the light table to the pages of the book.
Is there a way to view a light table and the book's pages at the same time?
Regards,

No, you don't have to crop them. The "frames" on each page are set for the 4:3 size so that when a photo is put in a frame and enlarged to fill it all portions of the photo are still visible. You can but a 3:2 photo in a frame and it should enlarge it just so the long edge fill the frame leaving you with a little more white space.
There's a slide bar to enlarge if necessary. If you Control-click on the image, there will be an option to Fit photo to frame size. There you may cut some off. But you'll need to experiment to see if it will suit your needs.

Default print settings - Print by page size

Hello,
I use Acrobat to print odd size documents (odd, meaning other than 8 1/2 x 11, and 11 x 17). I was wondering if there was a setting to default Acrobat to print to a certain page size everytime no matter what dimensions the PDF is?
Thanks!

Have the same issue. Did you get it resolved?

Light Table: Image Sizes?

Is there any way to specify the exact sizes of the images placed on a Light Table?
I have a multi-frame I want to print pics for, and a Light Table is a perfect way to print multiple images per page… but I can't seem to figure out how to make, say, one image 3x3 and another one 6x4.
Make sense?
Any ideas?

The only print option in aperture that allows to exactly control the size and position of images is the Book. In the layout options for the pages you can set the dimensions of the photo boxes and align them accurately. I sometimes use the photo book design to arrange photos for printing, i.e. if if I want to have captions as well. I start with a page design, that has only one photo box and addas many additional boxes as I need.The only drawback is, that you have to pick the correct when printing - you will not want to print the covers of the book as well.

From light table to album - am I missing something?

I've just started using light table to organise a large number of shots from a recent trip away. I have found it really useful to group photos from particular locations that we visited more than one time over the course of a few days (i.e. ordering them by date would separate them from each other), and also to assign keywords to distinct groups of images.
So I end up with a great layout for my album/slideshow, with all the images ordered just as I want them.
What next?
If I select all and create a new album from the light table, it just dumps the whole lot in there in Date order (back to square one). "Manual" ordering is greyed out and there's no option to maintain the order I've carefully chosen in the light table.
If I try taking one small group of images at a time and dragging/dropping them to an empty album, of course it just drags the images further and further into the blank canvas of the light table.
What am I doing wrong? Why would Aperture have a light table to work on organising photos on if you then can't actually use that work elsewhere within the application?
Am I missing a trick here?
Thanks
Giles

Hi Giles. Good questions.
Light Table are Albums, just as are Slideshows, Books, Web Pages, etc.
To create a new Album from any selection, use the command "File→New→ ... "
Light Tables are great for grouping images. They are not useful (afaict) for sorting images. As you've discovered, your sort order is lost when you move the images to another Album.
The solution is to change your workflow. Group items on a Light Table, then select the group you want and create a new Slideshow (for instance) and set the sort order manually in the Slideshow editor.
You might want to experiment with using Grid view (rather than Filmstrip view, which I think is the default) in the Slideshow editor. I've found setting it up as a vertical panel 3 columns of images wide works well. I'll post a screen shot as soon as I figure out how the new editor handles images.

Decrease Light Table Size?

Is there a way to decrease the size of a light table? I've searched around the documentation I have and don't see any way to do that.
I was trying to slightly increase the size of a light table I was working in when Aperture suddenly slowed down (I suppose it was doing something in the background). I held the image I was dragging to one side of the table and then suddenly Aperture became responsive again and the size of my table just shot up in the direction I was dragging that image. It's about twice the size I want it to be now and I have work on it I don't want to loose by simply deleting it and creating a new one.

Just at the top of the light table window is a little slider.

Resize Multiple Images at once in Light Table??

I'm wondering if there is a way to resize more than one image white working inside a Light Table? I seem to recall being able to do this, but perhaps I just imagined it.
Does anyone know of a way to do this? If I have a lot of images in my Light Table it becomes a real pain if I want to make, say, 10 of them bigger (and/or the same size) at the same time.

Zak... Selecting one thumbnail > Select all > Delete worked just as you said; it leaves one image behind. I never would have tried that method because logically I would have thought that it would delete all the images since I chose 'Select all'. Thanks for the quick response and saving me a lot of work... Bill
