Lightroom 5 printing templates.

I am trying to print a contact sheet from lightroom but when i click on the template browser, the arrow changes to the down position but i have no preset templates contained within the file. Any ideas?

I had a similar problem with LR 5.  After deleting preferences, uninstalling and reinstalling and spending over an hour on chat 'support' with Adobe changing permissions, nothing worked.  Finally, I  found an obscure solution in a thread related to LR 4.  I'm running OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).  Check the print dialog box where you can select to print "all" the pages or a page range.  For me, the page range radial was highlighted and the defined page range was "5" to "5". When I changed the print range to "1" to "1", it worked!  I have no idea why.

  • Lightroom Printer Template for Canon Pro9000

    I have been trying to set up a printer template for my Canon Pro9000 that has as one of the printer settings that color management is turned off. I create a new template and/or I try to update settings on an existing template. No matter what I do, it seems like if the setting reverts to ICM. Also, it seems like it ignores the setting that I check for whether or not I want a print preview.
    Are these just settings that can't be saved in a template, or am I doing something wrong?

    I have a p9000 too. I am not aware that LR can set up a template with all the printer driver settings you want including turning off color management in the printer.
    I always thought that every time you load light room, you have to reset all your printer driver settings in the printer driver (as well as specifying no your paper profiles and rendering intent in LR.
    This ain't exactly great. I usually print in qimage which defaults to your previous settings for any given type of paper profile you choose.
    But LR isn't there yet.

  • Lightroom 5 print templates not allowing images to be moved into cells & not allowing individual cells to be selected

    I've run into a problem using the LR5 print templates that has occurred suddenly and I need help figuring out what happened.
    Yesterday I tried using a Print template from my User Templates menu and the one I selected wouldn't allow an image to be dragged into a cell.  I also noticed that the template wouldn't allow me to select the cells for size adjustment, either.  Other templates had the same behavior, even the templates in the Lightroom Templates menu.
    Not only that, but when I hover the mouse cursor over the template name in the menu it displays the template properly in the Preview pane above the menus, but when I click the mouse to select the template the Preview display changes to one that's completely different, which is the same as what shows in the main viewing area.
    I have a few non-Lightroom templates (added by me) that work properly, but all of the Print templates in the Lightroom Templates menu show these symptoms.  How can I get the Lightroom Print Templates to behave?
    Anybody...suggestions??
    Thanks!

    I'm having almost the exact same problem.    the Lightroom library is not recognizing that the files stored in a LOCAL dropbox folder are the same ones as in the library.   So if I try to "synch" library, i end up with 40k photos that are missing from my library but they are not.   They are there.

  • Missing print templates - Lightroom preset ones

    All the preset Lightroom PRINT templates have disappeared.  I see the folder on the left that says Print templates and Lightroom templates and user templates.  If I import templates they show up in user templates as expected but the Lightroom Templates is completely empty - just pops up new folder box.  I have checked preferences and looked for the template folder.  I just has a folder for user templates which seems to be what the problem is.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times to no avail.  I also went back and deleted old versions (3,4) and the preferences files and every other file/folder I could find relating to lightroom including catalogs.  I have lightroom installed on both my laptop and Imac.  The problem is occuring on both so it seems that accidently deleting something is unlikely.  I've never looked at the print module before so this may have been going on for a long time.
    Any ideas on how to get these. 
    <moved by mod from downloading,installing,setting up - kglad>

    I assume you mean, Edit / Preferences...  [presets tab] Location: [Show Lightroom Presets Folder]. If you haven't yet saved any print presets of your own, then LR has not yet had any need of a User folder to contain such. So one may not yet have been made.
    The easiest way to get LR to do that, (and to be sure that you are looking in the right place) : click the + icon next to Template Browser in Print module.
    IOW: save a dummy print preset, doesn't matter about its contents, but enter some very distinctive name and then click Create. By default this should go into "User Templates", which is made as necessary, though you can choose to make a differently named folder if you prefer.
    Full path on my Win8.1 is C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Print Templates\User Templates
    Then take a look in Explorer and see what has changed - if there's any problem, you can always disk search for whatever distinctive template name you have just entered. Copy your other bought templates alongside this new dummy print preset, restart LR and you should be able to start using any of those. Delete the dummy preset in due course.
    (Note that it is quite usual for built-in LR presets to be held somewhere quite different, than user created or user added items. The provided choices such as "(1) 4 x 6" and "custom 1 over 2" may not be findable anywhere on disk, for example.)

  • Print template control

    Currently the print template gives you some basic options for customization.
    However, I'd like to see greater control over placement of printed metadata. For example, maybe I want image titles centered on the top, captions centered .25 inches below the image, filenames at the very bottom of the page flush left, and date @ bottom flush right, all in 40% black.
    Lightroom print Templates should allow you to have such precise control.

    yeah, I vote for that too!

  • Lightroom - print module not working on mac osx 10.5.1  (leopard)

    When I switch to print module in light room comes up as error when changing modules but every every other module seems to work fine.

    Jao, I tried it but no luck. As John recommended, I also uninstalled Lightroom, deleted the preference file as well as the print templates per your suggestion and reinstalled the latest Lightroom 1.3.1. Still no luck with using the left panel in the Library module.
    One thing I just noticed was that if I open a very small catalog of ~200 images, everything appears to work fine. It looks like a problem with working with my 12,000 image catalog which always worked well before I upgraded my iMac to OS X Leopard. By the way, I've got the preferences setup to always check the integrity of the catalog at the start of every session. Everything is supposedly good.
    Anyhow, thoughts and recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I hate the thought of reimporting all my images and losing all my metadata in the process. Thanks.

  • Cannot get print templates to change

  • Problem Installing Matt´s Pano Print Template

    Hello,
    have downloaded Matt´s Pano Print Template from the Lightroom Killer Tips site.
    When I try to install it in the Print Module I get the following message:
    "Failed to convert native image to blob".
    I´m using LR 1.3.1 on my Windows XP Home machine.
    Please, can anyone help?

    Thanks for your reply, John.
    I had read that thread already and that's why I had removed duplicate fonts and done the repair permissions exercises. They didn't fix the problem.
    Since writing the above query, I have experienced problems printing non-template documents as well. They are word docs that I received via email and have info in the header. Seems that Snow Leopard has caused something to happen with my ability to print both what is in a header and in the body; it will print one but not both.
    Any further ideas?

  • User Print templates will not hold Print Settings Presets

    User print templates set up for different papers will not remember/hold Print Settings Presets

    Jeff,
    You are correct it does work, I added a step not needed - I created a Preset on the Print Setting page, I should have left that as Default, it works that way.  How pleasant to get a response from you, I just watched Camera to Print & Screen #39 Print from Lightroom this morning where I learned about Print templates.  Thanks so much.

    Uh, you might wanna provide just a bit more info...like OS & platform, what printer, when and how were the rint templates created (in LR4 or earlier). What you've asked is impossible to answer as asked...

  • How to change the default print template for broadcast PDF Export

    Hi,
    I have currently designed a print template for printing purposes and use this as the template for the print button(Export to PDF),if i were to click on this button the output pdf is the desired PDF. But if i were to broadcast the template with output format as PDF it picks the layout of the current template, how do i set broadcast to pick up the print template also???
    Further how to insert a page break in a PDF print template.

    Hi Nagesh,
    These setting are for
    1.Adhoc Template for Queries
    2. Adhoc Template for reports designed through report designer
    3. Template for query precalculation
    4. Template for displaying broadcasting wizard.
    When we use broadcasting from query designer  to email PDF's the system uses 0QUERY_TEMPLATE_BROADCAST_PDF.
    From WAD the system uses the current template layout as PDF Layout.
    P.S: OSS note 1054460 -<b>Depending on the BI object type and possibly other criteria, different Web templates are used in BI broadcasting to generate PDF (and PS or PCL) formats:</b>
    <i>For Web templates: the Web template itself is used</i>

  • Print Templates print preview window closes unexpectly when printing document

    This is a cross posting from Internet Explorer Web Development after a suggestion that this forum would be a better location. See
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/ie/en-US/351e1245-b606-4467-9f3c-1c72f9cdf9ea/print-templates-print-preview-window-closes-unexpectly-when-printing-document?forum=iewebdevelopment.
    I have raised an issue through Connect for this:
    https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/1134168/ie9-to-ie11-print-templates-print-preview-window-closes-unexpectly-when-printing-document, but I would like some more visibility of the issue as my customers thought my application was closing when
    they printed a document.  I also don't know if an issue in Connect gets any priority support via MSDN, but this forum does.
    This looks to me like a problem in the IE Print Templates startDoc API call, but if there is a more appropriate forum to raise this issue in please let me know.
    In the application where I use print templates, the window closing is not in it self a problem because the Javascript that is calling startDoc also closes the Print Preview window when the print is finished.
    The fact that the application looses focus and can be hidden by the windows of other applications when the Print Preview window is closed by startDoc is the issue noticed by our customers, so I need a fix preferably, or a work around at a pinch.
    Details of the issue reproduced below.
    When using IE Print Templates, the startDoc function is causing the print preview window to close.  This behaviour started with IE9, and is still present with IE11.
    When an application is using print templates (see
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753279(v=vs.85).aspx) for print functionality, this has the effect of causing the application to become hidden by any other application window once printing from the print preview window has started.  It is
    actually this behaviour that started me looking at this issue as the users thought the hosting application had closed.
    Print Templates are not accessible by using IE as a web browser, but only when using the WebBrowser Control to embed IE in an application.  The reference for this feature is available from this url:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753279(v=vs.85).aspx
    and a sample Microsoft application that demonstrates the use of Print Templates can be used to demonstrate the problem (required for the reproduction steps).  The application is available via this article and searching for "download spiffy".
    Steps to reproduce the problem:
    To see the full effect of the issue, first ensure there is a window from another application (like Windows Explorer) that will cover the sample applications window if brought to the foreground (making the Windows Explorer window full screen works).
    Start the sample application (and ensure that the full screen Window Explorer is the next application to activate).
    Then in the drop down box in the top right corner of the UI select Template8.htm.
    Click the Print Preview button that is just below the drop down box (this will open a new Print Preview window).
    In the new window click the Print… button (this will open a Print dialog).
    Click the Print button at the bottom of the Print dialog.
    The Print dialog closes (expected) and then the Print Preview window also closes (not expected), however the document is still printed successfully.
    When the Print Preview windows is closed unexpectedly, the Windows Explorer window is brought to the foreground (obscuring the sample applications window).
    If you reselect the sample application and click the Print Preview button again, the Print Preview dialog is not displayed unless you restart the application (this looks to be a symptom of the same issue, not a separate problem).
    To see that the Print Preview window appears to be closed by the startDoc call, use the resource editor in Visual Studio (the exe can be opened directly by File | Open | File…) to edit the HTML resource "TEMPLATE8.HTM" (I found I needed to delete
    it and add it back in for the change to stick), find the startDoc call and add two alerts, one on the line before and one on the line after.  When IE is accessing the template, it is being done using the name of the executable (so do not rename the modified
    version of printtemplates.exe, make the changes to a copy in a different directory if you don't want to change the original).  Start the modified version of the application and follow the same steps as in the reproduction.  This time, after clicking
    the Print button in the Print dialog, the dialog will close, the first alert will pop up, then the Print Preview window will close, then
    the second alert will pop up.
    Thank you,
    Warren.

    Hi Shu,
    I have noticed that the print templates API is listed as part of the Legacy APIs. 
    Is this just because it hasn't changed or is not new?  Or does this mean that it is no longer maintained and may be removed (or at least deprecated) at some point in the future? 
    It would good to know if we should start planning for the implementation of a different method of printing.
    I understand that the sample application is no longer maintained, but I also think that the Print Template API that it uses has not changed, and so should still work (and it does mostly).
    If the Print Preview window was being closed as a result of using the Print dialog (and if it had behaved the same way with IE8) I would be willing to go with the by design argument.  
    I have found that the Print Preview window is not closed until startDoc is called, and it closes before control is returned from the startDoc function. 
    Just as part of investigating and try to find a workaround, if I call window.close(), any alert calls made no longer display the alert window after the close call. 
    Alert still functions after startDoc has closed the window however. 
    The is not the sort of consistent behaviour I would expect from something that is by design. 
    Also while investigating, I found that calling startDoc after calling window.close() results in an exception with the error code -2147467259 (0x80004005), this is probably quite normal and expected, but does indicate that the Web Browser Control should
    not be closed till after printing.
    I had found that old thread, and I had concluded it was the same issue, but it was also aimed at different aspect of the problem (which I see in the sample application, but not my application). 
    The visible issue I have is that my users think the application has been closed because after clicking print (on the Print dialog) the application gets hidden by other windows from other applications. 
    This aspect affects the sample in the same manner and so it was a convenient way to demonstrate the problem.
    If IE connect do not look at this issue any time soon, do I have any other avenues to resolve this issue?
    Thank you,
    Warren.

  • Printing a PDF file over pre-printed template

    I would like to be able to print a PDF file (file A) over the top of another PDF file (file B ). For example, file A could be a letter that needs to be sent out and file B could be the company letterhead. The resulting file would be the letter on company letterhead.
    I need to be able to do this because I am printing from an application that allows limited customization of the output format. Having the ability to print one file over another would enable me to create a "pre-printed template" in an application that has more flexibility. I could then add the data from the first application over the top of the "pre-printed template."
    I am using Acrobat Professional 7.0.9 on a Windows XP Professional system. If necessary I can upgrade to a more recent version of Acrobat.
    Thanks for your help

    I would like to do this all electronically. I don't produce a hard copy at any time but rather create the PDF and then email the file to the recipient.
