Making a photographic book in landscape and portrait mode in iBooks author

Hello, I am making a photographic book with the iBooks author and I have a problem that I cannot resolve. The book is only with photos, without text and I am putting every photo on a whole page. I made around 15 pages in landscape orientation and now I want to make the same thing with the same photos in portrait, but I don't know how to arrange the photos to match when the ipad is flipped. The whole idea is that I want people to see different crops of the photos when they flip the iPad. I hope that you understood me and will eventually come up with solution... Really thanks!

Hi user_1,
If you are looking to reshape the graph based on whether the user has selected portrait or landscape mode, you could use a property node for your graph that executes in the same case as the print orientation, in which you reshape the graph using plotareasize or another property. I've attached an example of this.
Hope this helps!

Landscape and portrait mode in Epub

Hey!
When I export from Indesign to .epub with a fixed layout - is there a way to use it in landscape and portrait mode on an Ipad or Iphone? Mine stays in landscape.

@Steve – don't think so…
@Kaz Till – do you mean the following:
1. Without setting "auto":
2. After setting "auto":
Don't think, that this is to the advantage of the reader…

Landscape and portrait mode

My iPad is slow between rotating from landscape o portrait mode at the home screen. In apps though it is very fast. Anybody know why? It hasn't always been like this

Hi,
Try restarting your iPad.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
See if that made a difference.
If not, you may have an app that needs "force quitting" ...
Try this... Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the application quits.
Try again. If it's still slow, connect your iPad to your computer, launch iTunes. Check available storage at the bottom of the iTunes window. Might be a good idea to have at least 10% free space available.

Different layout ipad landscape and portrait mode

I want my ipad landscap layout to be different from my ipad portrait layout, How can I do that?
Thanks,
Johan

When creating a tablet website in Muse, the only thing that will happen when you rotate your iPad is it will scale up or scale down, you can't change the layout since Muse doesn't do re-flow or responsive websites based on browser page width.
See this thread for a workaround.
is Muse responsive?

Change landscape-and-portrait-folio to landscape-only

Is it possible after mistakenly having produced a folio with landscape-and-portrait-mode setting it back to landscape-only?
In the new content viewer, if a folio is set for both landscpae and folio, but only one layout exists, it shows a grey empty page in the second alignment (before it didn't change the alignment and the picture wasn't changed when turning the iPad).
Now, when you create a new folio, you are asked if this is landscape-and-portrait or portrait-only respectively landscpae-only. We mistakenly have chosen both-alignments and are now having the problem of the empty grey mode in portrait.
Can this be changed after upload the layouts? Is this also happening within the app itself?

Hi Bhaskar,
thanks for your help. My intention is to create a single-orientation layout, but I created a both-orientations-layouts. Before v20 (or 19?) when just uploading one of the orientation into that folio, content viewer and the branded app just showed one orientation and fixed the layout within the iPad. Now, if you choose both-orientations and just upload a single one, you are getting a grey screen in the missing orientation.
I wasn't aware of this fact (maybe because german customers weren't invited to sprint v20 presentation) but I'm afraid that you are right an have to created the folio completely from the ground (which is a lot of more work with import function not running )
Maybe this solves my push notification error with one of my folios I have

Print SSRS Server Report in landscape or portrait mode directly(without report viewer control)

Hello,
.Net 4.0\VS2010\C#\ssrs 2008 on Sql Server 2008R2
Having a problem printing a Server report while controlling the orientation and the size of the emf rendered to the physical page.
I have the report cutting off in both landscape and portrait modes. I'm passing the following deviceinfo to the render function:
string DeviceInfo =
@"<DeviceInfo>
<OutputFormat>EMF</OutputFormat>
<PageWidth>8.5in</PageWidth>
<PageHeight>11in</PageHeight>
<MarginTop>0.25in</MarginTop>
<MarginLeft>0.25in</MarginLeft>
<MarginRight>0.25in</MarginRight>
<MarginBottom>0.25in</MarginBottom>
</DeviceInfo>";
return DeviceInfo;
string mimeType; string fileExtension; Stream pageStream = serverReport.Render("IMAGE", deviceInfo, firstPageParameters, out mimeType, out fileExtension);
No other settings seem to have an affect on controlling the output to printer or pdf. i.e. The deviceinfo params fed to server report's render function are all you get. I think my original code comes from an MSDN or CodeProject example. I'm not
inventing anything new here.
Links below indicate similar problems but they are looking at the issue from just landscape mode. Seems like I ought to be able to squash or expand the image to whatever size I specify, separate from the 'page' size. Please let me know what i need
to know to make these reports print without bleeding onto 2 pages or slicing off the right side of the document image.

Hi
FraterJoanni,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
I am not expert in SSRS. You should get better response in SQL Server > SQL
Server Reporting Services, Power View forum.
After take a look at the similar threads links as you posted above.
The conclusion is we needn’t tell the program o this report is landscape not portrait. If the width is larger than the height, the report will be printed in landscape; otherwise, it will be printed in portrait.
>>Links below indicate similar problems but they are looking at the issue from just landscape mode.
But in C# forum, we only from the point of code, code looks OK to me.

Portrait page orientation - ibook author

How can I make protrait (vertical) orientaton template in iBook Author? For my design I dont need landscape (horisontal) orientation at all.

I am not sure if you are crerating a problem for yourself. I was about to post my concerns which are... in a photo book I used a blank page to avoid teh text flow formatting. Therefore its a double page and I used images in landscape.This book and two others have been returned for corrections. The Ticket advises.."Missing Content in Portrait mode"... which is simply because there is none.
BUT.. I have downloaded free books to find they are in landscape and Portrait mode is locked out.
In the Document Inspector..is an option to disable portrait mode.
I purchased ( before finding iBA ) an app called "Book Creator" its pretty basic compared to iBA.. but when I preview in iBooks.. it has flip pages and .. turned to portrait mode.. the book shows in a compressed way to fit the page in. There are no bells and whistles as there are in iBA.. and this little app does what - apparently - iBA cannot do..and ends up causing a great delay in getting books accepted.

Investigate book with both landscape and portrait pages

I've an old book where I sucessfully swapped landscape and portrait pages, but there are complications why I cannot use it as a model for my current project. Since I no longer remember how I accomplished this, I have to investigate how to build a book with both landscape and portrait pages.
I know about paragraph tags set to use a new page. Also a table on Reference page which lists Paragraph Tag Name, Right-Handed Master Page, Left-Handed Master Page, Range Indicator.
But this doesn't seem to be enough; something is not working.
Could you please point me toward resources which discuss how to do this?
Thank you kindly,
Theresa

I think there was a big discussion of this already either here on the forum or over at the Frameusers.com list (I forget which). Try googling -

Landscape and Portrait Orientation Problems

Hello everyone,
I am working on my first iBook using iBook Author. I am having a heck of a time understanding how to make something look good in both Landscape and Portrait orientation.
For example, I am curious how to make the spaces between paragraphs disappear in portrait view, if I had to use them in order to make the landscape view look proper in terms of formatting. In depth, if I have a text for a section in the book that I need to have at the top of the next column, I am putting my cursor before the text and pressing enter a few times in order to move it along and onto the next column so it is at the top of the page.
Here is a picture of what I am talking about:
The highlighted text has been shifted down so it will be at the top of the next page.
Now this is what it looks like in Portrait orientation:
There are way too many empty lines between them. Also, you will notice at the top that Not Getting In the Way is also too close to the text above it. Correcting that by putting a space between the lines will screw up the Landscape formatting.
Also, adding pictures makes it even MORE difficult to keep both formatted properly and clean.
Any advice would be INCREDIBLE.
Thank you everyone!

Layout in landscape. Edit in portrait....assuming you've not disabled support for it.
Preview/check in both.

Export te document to PDf. Open it in Preview. Here you can rotate the a page to horisontal.

Landscape and portrait phots?

Hi
I want to use some phots to make a youtube video the photos are both landscape and portrait , but when i add the media it only shows the photos in one orientation (landscape) any advice gratefully recieved

Before you import the photos into your project, go to your preferences (under the Edit menu on a PC) and uncheck Scale Stills to Frame Size.
Also make sure your photos are sized to no larger than 1000x750 pixels or they are going to be way to large to work with. You may need to resize them once youv'e added them.
Unless your concern is that the portrait photos are coming in sideways. If that's the case, you'll need to open them in Photoshop Elements, rotate them 90 degrees and then resave them. Note that, although many photos will appear to be oriented correctly in the Organizer or in Windows, they still may not actually be oriented correctly until you open them in Photoshop.

How do i have landscape and portrait slides in the same keynote file?

how do i create landscape and portrait slides in the same keynote file?

You cant, its one or the other not both, the slide size setting is for the whole presentation, not for individual slides.
The slide format is chosen to match the display the presentation is shown on. I have presentations showing on vertical, horizontal, square, circular and iregular shaped screens with rear projection, but a single format must still be set.

Script to make landscape and portrait images square

I am new to scripting and could use a little help.
We are currently rebuilding our enitre website from the ground up. New look, new products, new images (about 2,800 of them). Here is where it gets tricky.
Some of the photos are landscape and others are portrait. I have resized the images to the required 200 pixels wide, but we are now running into the issue where they also need to be 200 pixels high. I could just separate them into two folders, landscape and portrait, and run two different actions, but I would prefer to run an if/than script if possible. Can someone tell me if this is possible in Photoshop? These are images of products, so there is no background.
If the image is larger than 200 pixels high, reduce the image to 200 pixels high. Then, enlarge the canvas to 200 pixels.
If the image is smaller than 200 pixels high, Then enlarge the canvas to 200 pixels high.
These are all 72 dpi, RGB images. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have found this JaveScript that does what I need on the PC side, but keep getting an error when it tries to save the image. Is anyone able to recreate this into AppleScript with a correct save function... I am running a MAC, so I need an AppleScript. My coworker has Photoshop on the PC and is trying to use this JavaScript below.

#target photoshop

Printing landscape and portrait orientations in LR

I have usually been printing from Qimage or QTR for my black and white, despite having heard good things about LR's print module.
This afternoon I thought I would give LR a whirl at printing. I had a series of 4 photos (3 portrait orientation, 1 landscape) selected which I wanted to print one per page. In Print they all appeared oriented in the most logical fashion as I paged through the 4 pages (i.e. the longest dimension of the image ran down the longest dimension of the paper).
I then selected my profile for my paper and hit Print... to go into my printer settings (Epson 3800) for that paper. These latter settings exist for both landscape and portrait orientations of my papers. As I had both landscape and portrait images I wished to print and the settings for the printer driver dialog are identical for both apart from the media orientation, I chose the landscape to get a quick feedback on whether LR would be able to handle a mixed bag of portrait and landscape images.
As I feared, my first print (which was an image in portrait orientation) came out with the long axis of the image squeezed into the short dimension of the paper....so LR saw the choice I had made of a landscape orientation within the printer driver as a hard and fixed choice. Does this mean one can only do print runs of either portrait or landscape oriented images in LR and never combine the two?
I realize there may be an easy answer to this as I've really not used LR for printing till now.
Thanks for input,
Dave M

Thanks DJ-G....I can't swear but I am almost positive I had Rotate to Fit checked....indeed that would explain why when paging through the 4 pages in LR they were rotated to fit in the correct orientation. I'll check again. I do understand with Custom Package etc. we can print landscape and portrait when printing multiple images on the same page but my specific concern is printing one image per page and whether LR can handle a series of such prints in one print job if the images are a mix of landscape and portrait orientations.
