Make my own template for a one page book?

I need to make a book template that will appear in the list of possible book designs -- is that possible?
Secondly -- I want to make a one-page book (call it a poster if you want) it's really a form that I want to print out with a different photo each time. It's actually a casting form/release for models. I want to be able to shoot a tethered photo of model, put it into a one-page form which already has a model release in it and print it out so they can sign it.
I have not been able to work with any of the existing templates because they won't permit me to reduce the number of pages to one or two. (sure I can always just choose to print one page, but I want to keep all this as simple as possible as it will be casting assistants or studio assistants doing this).
So my questions are:
1. Can I create my own Aperture book template?
2. Can I create a template that is only one or two pages?
3. Can I enter the model's name, email, phone, etc in metadata and have that print out as a release form for them to sign?
4. Can I use Automator to make this a "push the button" operation?
Many thanks and open to all suggestions.

Never mind. I figured it out already. Can turn off page numbering from the pop-up menu on "book action". Should have just the manual. Thanks.

How can I make my own design for a web page instead of using a template?

Need to ask the question again. I tried using the blank template, but could not get it to work. I could not insert images and copy where I wanted and in size I wanted.

A general question: Is it possible to change the dimensions of the web page? Or even its positioning as a horizontal or vertical format?
Yes — it's done via iWeb Inspector's Page tab (the second one at the top), editing the values in the +Page Size+ fields. After entering a new value, click the Return key to make it take effect...
..By the way, the above image is taken from a tutorial ~ click on the image above to read the tutorial.

I also would prefer to edit the copy on the blank web page, and cannot do that either. Is it possible to do so?
Yes, it's possible. But it's difficult to know what exact difficulty you're having, and I perhaps risk stating the obvious... One thing to be aware of is that clicking once inside a text box will simply select that box (you'll see eight +"grab handles"+ for re-sizing). But to edit the text inside, you need to click once more. Experiment with clicking inside and outside text boxes and you'll learn.
And iWeb's Help menu has several resources ~ the Help viewer, a +Getting Started+ PDF and a link to ten video tutorials. One of the videos briefly demonstrates adding a text box towards the end; click here...
If after the above you still need help, post back with step-by-step details of the problem.

Making own Templates for iPhoto

in iPhoto `08, when you export pictures as a website, you can choose either a default template or one with bordered images.
I wondered if there wont be more templates with the time. As long I figured out where those Templates are stored. Depending on the localization you can find it i.e. in:
Photo.app/Contents/Plugins/HTMLExporter.iPhotoExporter/Contents/Resources/German .lproj/Templates
I tried to make an own template by modifying a copy of one of those templates. It works pretty fine. But there is one problem:
iPhoto uses as variable stuff like <ipt_photo>, or <ipt_links>.
I can change any html synthax I want in those templates, but when I set those iphoto synthax just on another place, iPhoto doesn't translate them anymore, when it proceedes to generate the html files.
Anyone any idea???

Why not use iWeb where you have 24 frames and 26 customizable page themes to use? Much more flexible than the limited web export from iPhoto and no hacking required.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I downloaded iDraw - which is an Adobe Illustrator wannabe for the iPad. You can export to PDF and other formats using iDraw. iDraw also supports file sharing. File Sharing is the iPad/iTunes way to send files back and forth from the iPad to your computer and back again.
This site will tell you about iDraw.

This is a link to iOS File Sharing which you will find useful as well.

There are third party apps in the app store that will allow you to use virtually any printer even if you don't have one of the HP AirPrint compatible printers.
You can even use an app like Pages to create your templates. You can insert art and photos into Pages and it supports file sharing as well. Pages is a Word Processing app and I would be inclined to not use it for your purposes but it will work for some basic designs however it's certainly not ideal for creating artwork.

How to change page template for a single page?

I create a new document based on the Pages "Reports > Business Report".
Now the first page is formatted as a "Cover" page with a larger top margin.
Via "Format > Advanced > Manage Pages..." I see there are what I assume are the "Page Templates":
- Cover
- Table of Contents
- Chapter Page
- Text Page
- Appendix
My question: How can I change the template for a single page in my document? E.g. I don't want Page #1 to be formatted as "Cover". I'd like it to be a "Text Page".
Any hints?

Just delete the Cover section and insert a Text Page.
Click on:
+Toolbar > View > Page Thumbnails+
Click on the Cover thumbnail, it will be outlined in yellow, hit delete.
It may start off with certain defaults but you do not have to accept them.

How do I make a transpose button for just one instrument in a split? (mainstage)

I work in mainstage 2.2.2 with patches using splits and I want to make an octave button for just one instruments in a patch. Suggestions?
Benny

Depending on your virtual instrument you can assign octave to a MIDI control. If you assign all of them to the same control on every track then that would be the effect, but like I said before, it really depends on which instruments you use.

Pages isn't a specific note taking application but rather a word processing and page layout application.

I have a problem ,am unable to enforce a UI Template for a Dynamic page.As I want to modify the background color and font for the contents of the Dynamic page.I have tried to specify these in the htp functions,which works fine but when I expose the dynamic page as a portlet and drop it in a page ,the background color and font modifications do not show up.
Any idea as to how the modifications can be done to show up in the page?

I changed the pref.js file and that fixed the problem. thanks to those who responded to this question and for the quick replies. jjg18

Creating Dynamic Page: Make My Own Template Appear?

I am creating a Dynamic Page portlet.
During the setups for this dynamic page, in the "Dynamic Page and Customization Form Text" step, I would like to make a template of my creation appear in the dropdown of templates.
(Examples of templates currently appearing in this dropdown list include PUBLIC.TEMPLATE_1 , PUBLIC.PEOPLE_TEMPLATE AND PUBLIC.SKY_TEMPLATE.)
Does anybody know how I can make a custom template of mine appear in this list?
Thank you.

Go to the Navigator (page) > Providers (tab) > Locally Built Providers (link) > Shared Components (link) > User Interface Templates (link)
Once there, you can either copy one of the existing templates or click on "Create New... User Interface Template" (When prompted, I recommend selecting "Unstructured UI Template" if you want complete control over your html, css, and javascript code.)
Once your template has been created, you will be able to select it from the list of available templates and the template will be shown when the component is viewed in full page display mode.

PSEv4: Templates for creating album pages

My wife and I just got PSEv4, and have been having fun with the creation tools --specifically the photo album page creator.
But (there's always a but)...
We're already feeling like the templates available are limiting, and would like to have more options. So here's the question(s):
Is there somewhere to download new templates that work with PSE?
Is there a way to create templates that work with PSE?
TIA

Sorry but I do not know of any source for additional downloads or any directions for making your own templates that fit within the structure of the Album pages Creations of the Organizer.
Under the Organizer
Edit > Preferences > Services there is a button for Update Creations. Adobe has occasionally released additional templates; some of these have been for specific holiday templates. However, they still will be very limited.
The Full Photo No Border style of the Album Pages creation allows you more flexibility in positioning and sizing both the photos and the text - but it is basically a blank page with no decorations.
Now if instead, you use the Elements Editor blank canvas to make cards, you can totally customize what you use for decoration on the printed pages. You might search within these forums for methods of making cards within the Elements Editor.

Using a letterhead template for a multi-page document

When using a letterhead template for a multipage document, how do I turn off the template for pages after the first page? I do not want to have the letterhead show up on every page of a letter.

John,
You can set new margins for your new section in the Layout Inspector. After removing the letterhead elements open the Layout Inspector, choose the Layout tab and set the margins as you need them.
Once you've created and formatted the section to your liking, make it a permanent part of your template.
1. With the cursor on the second page, go to Format>Advanced>Capture Pages
2. Give the page a descriptive name, such as 'Second Page'. Include 'First page only.'
3. Click 'Ok.'
This 'Second Page' is now listed under the "Sections" icon on your toolbar.
4. Save the document as a template.
Now, whenever you start a new document based on this template add the second page using the Section Icon.
There is a shortcoming to this method in that text will not flow from the first page to the second, given that there is a section break between the two pages. This would be the case even in Word. Of course, even in Word you could not change the margins for the second page without also changing the margins for the first page unless you used a section break.
One way to avoid this problem is to but your address block for the first page into a page high text box and allow text to wrap around it. You can keep the same margins for the first and second page, but on the first page the text will be pushed over to the right. When it wraps to the second page, the text will return to the left margin.
Good luck,
Terry

How do I make a long table fit on one page?

I do a community newsletter, one page of which is a directory of residents. On this page, I have a table with 3 columns: name, address, and phone. There are 61 rows, which is too big to fit on an 8 ½ x 11 page. As people move in and out, I need to be able to change the name for the particular address and re-sort by name. Retaining this ability, how can I make this fit on one page? Ideally, I would be able to "break" the table into two parts of 30/31 rows each, with each part side by side on the 8 ½ x 11 page. I can't find a way to do this. Any help would be appreciated. I am working in Yosemite 10.10.1, and Pages 5.5.1. I have also created a Numbers 3.5 version of this table, but still cannot find a way to do what I want to do.

Hi Saundra,
Do you have to print it, or are you sending this out via E-mail/PDF?
The fix below, should work, either way:
If you are actually not printing it, and are E-mailing/posting online, Export as PDF, and E-mail address will still be active...
If it must fit on a smaller page, for printing or for whatever reason, drag the aforementioned PDF into a 8.5 x 11 document, open Inspecter to Metrics, click to not constrain proportions, resize to fit then Export again as a PDF. The E-mail addresses will remain active. Here's screenshot of one with 61 rows, I made in less that 2 minutes as a mock-up. Links/E-mail still works.
Luck!

Are there any templates for Wills in Pages?

I am looking to write a Will or Living Will. Are there any legal document templates available through the Pages application?

A will isn't something that you draft willy-nilly. There are rules that must be followed with regard to how you go about signing the document, who can/should be a witness to the document, whether witnesses can be legatees under the document, what language needs to be included in the document if you intend upon disinheriting a family member, how you go about setting up time-frames for when legatees vest, etc.
From the perspective of setting-up a will that does what you intend, hiring an attorney helps to ensure that your wishes are respected makes a lot of sense, even for attorneys who have no experience in drafting wills. There are very serious tax consequences that come into play when drafting a will, even if you aren't a multi-millionaire. Do yourself a favor, consult with an attorney. If cost is a concern, you state's bar association probably can direct you to an attorney who's willing to prepare the document for you at a reduced fee.

Trouble with template for secure shopping pages

Using DW for the first time to create pages for a website that includes a secure shopping site (shared SSL). I created all the pages from the same template, uploaded them all, and everything looked fine, until the cart went to the secure link...then the design fell apart - no styles, no images, no nothing. I asked my web host, and he said that the leading slash before the image and stylesheet links must be removed for all pages that will be accessed on the secure side. So, I created a second template, removed those leading slashes, so the links looked like "images/header.jpg" instead of "/images/header.jpg", etc. Switched the cart pages over to that template and everything is working beautifully now, on the site.
The problem is, the template itself in DW is just awful in Design view. It looks about like what the secure pages looked like online before I removed the forward slashes. I wanted to have the ability to make global changes to the site using the template, but I can't see what I'm doing in Design View.
Is there another solution, or a workaround for this issue?

I recently learned about Live View, and find it helpful in many situations. However, in this case, even Live View and browser preview is trashed when viewing the template itself. The odd thing is, the pages BASED on the template look ok in Live View and browser preview. It's just the template that's messed up. I probably won't make that many changes to the cart pages, so I can probably live with it, but I'd like to know why it's doing this and if there's a solution.
