Martin Evening's Lightroom book

Is now shipping from Amazon.

What isn't old news is that I prepaid Peach Pit months ago for the online work in progress and hard copy and Peach Pit still has not sent my hard copy. It's pretty annoying that they are collectring money from new purchasers while not delivering the books to people who prepaid.

Unnecessary page limit for Blurb book in Lightroom Book module

I'm posting this per Julieanne Kost's request following an email exchange regarding this topic. I am in the process of making a photobook using Lightroom and discovered when I reached page 240 that I couldn't add any additional pages, much to my surprise. I was surprised because I knew from Blurb's website that the limit for standard paper is 440 pages and mistakenly assumed that this limit would also apply within Lightroom. I did more research online and found many others being surprised by this limitation after spending hours and days on a photo book. I will likely work around this by exporting from Lightroom to .jpg and uploading to Blurb, but that will take extra time and effort and reduces the appeal of using Lightroom to create a Blurb book. I had also tried exporting from Lightroom to .pdf only to find that the .pdf format exported by Lightroom is not compatible with the requirements of Blurb.
My recommendation in the short term would be for Adobe to warn Lightroom Book Module users up front that Lightroom's page limits differ from those if going directly through the Blurb website.
My recommendation in the longer term would be for the Adobe engineers to make whatever changes are necessary in the Lightroom code to allow for 440 pages when standard paper is selected (and more specifically to make the page limits match the limits of Blurb's actual books). If there is any way to impress upon Adobe management the importance of this, I believe it would be greatly appreciated by many Lightroom/Blurb users.

I agree with that (though a 330 page Blurb book would break the bank :-)
I would also like to see the LR book module allow at least all the same Cover Templates as Booksmart does - I feel really constrained with both of them but much more so with LR...At least let us Drop a Full bleed finished cover on to the front and back covers!
Lately, I do all the page making in PS, move to LR to manage the page numbering and then export to jpg and ingest to Blurb to make my books...pretty kludgy, isn't it?

My preview panel in lightroom book module has no "create save book button". Where is it?

My preview panel in lightroom book module has no "create save book button". Where is it? Is there a workaround to save my book?

The \ key will hide and show the header bar in the book module and the Create Saved Book button is at the right of that header bar.
The outlined area is what shows and hides when the \ key is pressed. Maybe you have a keyboard that has a different key for \? On my keyboard the \ key is just above the Enter key.
You can also use the View / Show Header Bar in the LR menus across the top:
If this doesn't work, then can you provide a screenshot of your LR book module?

When using Lightroom Book module for Blurb book making, why do I keep getting a low image quality message if it's supposedly accessing my large raw files in my library?

When using Lightroom Book module for Blurb book making, why do I keep getting a low image quality message if it's supposedly accessing my large raw files in my library?

I think I've solved my problem with a Google Search. I came across a free slide show generator
(contributions requested) that shows much higher quality slide shows than either iPhoto or Aperture 3.
You click on a folder of jpegs and it almost immediately generates thumbnails and within a few seconds
I can be viewing a full screen, tack sharp, slideshow of all of the files in the folder. Much sharper than
I'm used to seeing.
I think I'll keep the Aperture 3 and use if for the purpose it's intended for in the future. I'll also redo the
image preview files to the small size it started with and then I'll copy all of the files I'm interested in from
iPhoto into a separate folder on another disk. I'll use Aperture to catalog and to perform image manipulations
on but I won't try to use it as an iPhoto replacement. I don't think I'll be using iPhoto much as an image
viewer in the future either after I finish moving my favorite pictures to the Phoenix Slides folder.
The name of the free program is Phoenix Slides. It's free to download and try, free to keep (though I
think you'd want to pay the small amount requested) and fast. My pictures have never looked so good
before.

Martin Evening Book Download to MacIntel using Adobe Reader 8

I've downloaded Martin's book to my MacBook Pro, but am unable to open it. On download, I received the error merror "IOErrorEvent.10_error Error #2038". I had downloaded Adobe's digital editions software prior to download.
Anyone else experienced/solved this issue? Thanks...Frank

John: I've seen the thread on missing tables of contents and indices, but that's not my issue. Adobe's Reader 8 and its Digital Editions plug-in won't let me read Martin's book on my MacIntel running 10.4.9. I've also posted on Adobe's Digital Editions forum, but so far no answer there, either.
Thanks for trying to help though.

Adobe Lightroom Book was included for a select few.....

A few people have been looking for a book that is included with Lightroom. Many people have stated that it does not come with a book.
To clarify things, Yes, a lucky few of us did get an 80page printed booklet with our Lightroom called
'Adobe Photoshop Lighroom - Getting Started Guide'. I just found the book in my ' Land of the Lost' book library of all the Adobe classroom in a book Books and after a bit of searching with info from the book, I found it at the Adobe website.
Here is a link to this 80 pg book from Adobe for all the people that want a getting started guide for Lightroom, even better for people trying out he free trial of Lightroom. This appears to be an exact .pdf copy of the printed book that I received with one of my versions of Lightroom.
http://http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/lightroom/pdfs/lightroom_gettingstarted_lo.pdf
Download the PDF and enjoy.

Hello Kelly,
first, because you wrote that you "installed ..." a try to (un)install by own resources is not enough!)
As strange as it may seem I fear it's now a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
On the other Hand, in my eyes it's as you said, CC includes many other programs, please see Adobe Creative Cloud . Here a screenshot of some of my programms I loaded down to use in CC:
If necessary and for further questions and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.

How can i export a blurb lightroom book layout into indesign?

I've designed a book in lightroom in the BLURB layout. I want to export this layout into INdesign to finetune it. Any suggestions on how to do this?

Hi Willi:
Thanks for your prompt response. Do you know if there are any scripts that can do this or at least help automate some of this process?
Thanks!

Lightroom book upload to Blurb - "GutsSize error"

Hi,
I’m trying to upload my book (112 pages) from Lightroom 5.0 to Blurb for already 2 weeks. I have tried at least 15 times, without any success… I always get the following error message : “GutsSize error”. I don’t have any clue what it means.
I can export my book as a PDF without any problem. I have also already tried to uncheck the “Apply background globally” option. And when I look at my book, I don’t see any warning error.
I’m uploading the book from Belgium, with a fast internet connection.
Any idea on how to fix this issue ?
Thank you all !
Vince

Hi again,
Just to give an update: I found the reason of the problem !
The text on the spine of the cover was incorrect : there was an additional line, but invisible on the screen as outside of the text box. The error was just shown by a very little red square, almost impossible to see.
I hope this can help people having the same "GutsSize" problem than me !
Vincent

Lightroom book

I have installed Lightroom v 5.6 (latest) on my desktop computer and on my Laptop. I have made a book. I get up one exclamation mark at the pictures and the text "this photo is offline or cannot be found. It will be omitted when you print your book» This I get on both the PC. Do not have the programs up and running at the same time. I'm not offline and I have brought in the directory where the images are located on, which is in Onedrive. Is it not possible to use OneDrive, so I can pick up my book both from my desktop and laptop computers? Can someone help me?

The "cannot be found" message means you have moved, renamed or deleted the photo (or the folder that contains it) outside of Lightroom. (Hint: don't do this any more)
In the Library module, the photo should have an exclamation point icon, as shown here in Figure 2. That same link has instructions on how to fix this problem, just click on the exclamation point icon and then click on Locate and find the photo.

Print odd even pages of book

I am printing books using Aperture. The only way I have found to do this is:
1. Create Book/Album
2. Duplicate the Book twice (name one: Odd, name other:Even)
3. for Even Copy, delete all content of odd pages (pretty easy to do).
4. For Odd Copy, delete all content of even pages (leave the pages just make them blank).
5. Print Even copy (Blank pages will not be printed - amazingly)
6. Reload Even copy then print Odd copy
Has anyone found an easier way to do this?
Nancy

Hmm, are you sure? Here's a screenshot for an Epson 3880, but would they really have taken away this feature on a later model?
If it is the case that your printer does not have this feature, then hmmm. I guess you'd have to do it the way you are doing it.
Maybe someone else has an easier workflow.

Things in Martin Sitter's APTS Book that don't work.

As I go through the "Apple Pro Training Series Logic Pro/Express 7" book by Martin Sitter I'm finding a growing list of things that don't look or work like he says they should. I'm going to add to this list as I find them. Hopefully there are simple answers for these problems. I'd like to know if I'm doing something wrong or if these features do not work in Express.
Problem 1. Page 51. Channel Strip settings do not look like those in the picture. I assume that's because Martin's showing Pro not Express, but he says on page 52 that, "...Fat EQ is not available to LE users...". That's true but alot more than that is not available. I don't have any setttings specifically for Conga.
Problem 2. (This is mentioned in another thread I started but for the sake of completeness I'll reiterate) Page 75. The Sample Editor does not open. I get an alert dialog when I have no track or a MIDI tracck selected. When I have selected a Audio track and try to open the Sample Editor window nothing happens.
Problem 3. Page 122. Dividing Audio Regions. Contrary to what's written, the Scissors Tool does not change to a crosshair when clicking and holding. The track does enter Solo Mode but I can't hear anything as I drag the tool.

Hi Brent,
sometimes when things seems to go wrong it's easy to blame the others,
as you said problems 2 & 5 only happened because you didn't listen
the very first thing Matin Sitter said, "Drag the content of this DVD to your HD"! The book title is LOGIC PRO 7 and LE, it's "logic" that some functions are Pro only. Anyway, drop him a line if you want, Martin's great guy and allways glad to help. You can see his video training site on: http://www.macprovideo.com/MPV/html/logicPro.html?OVRAW=martin%20sitter&OVKEY=ma rtin%20sitter&OVMTC=standard
Peace,
Jorge

Can't even install Lightroom

Hello,
first of all I've to apologize because my English istn't as good as it should be!
I hope you'll understand my problem.
As mentioned in the topic line, I can't install Lightroom 3. The installmanager runs well until copying the new data, then at ca. 80% this error massage appears:
Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {5C21D397-1DA5-3749-8C1F-165F21DE9E3E}. HRESULT: 0x80070002. assembly interface: IAssemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, assembly name: Microsoft.VC90.MFCLOC,version="9.0.21022.8",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorAr chitecture="amd64",type="win32"
So far no problem. I checked the web for solutions, the following things seemed to fit:
1. Re-Install .NET Framework - I've done this twice in the meantime...
2. Re-Install Visual C++ Runtimes - Also done twice
3. Close all other programms incl. AV via msconfig - done
But this error hasn't gone jet...
I thought for a short period of time that, maybe, the cd is corrupted. Luckily Adobe has the client downloadable on its website.
How could I say? Installation via web-client also failed, same Error....
Now I don't know what to do further! I would be glad if any of you can give me a hint or probably a solution.
Thank You! -fehnse

Thanks for your reply.
I have found ADOBE support lacking, to say the least. They had me run a program which invalidated my Vista License, and then had the nerve to tell me to contact Microsoft to fix that problem. And THEN they had the nerve to tell me that LR3 wouldn't install because my Vista license was no longer valid. They could not seem to comprehend that my first attempt to install LR3 was BEFORE they had me run the program which invalidated my Vista license.
I corrected my license problem by going through the online validation process with MS. The final straw was the last tech who seemed to be questioning my honesty. He was skeptical that I had not validated Vista, and wanted to get remote access to my computer. That takes some nerve, doesn't it? I didn't allow him access but he took my telephone number to have a "Senior," tech call me. I doubt I will get that call, based on the comments of other Adobe customers.
I am shocked at this kind of service from Adobe. I am comparing to HP, which has been surprisingly helpful with my laptop that has been out of warranty for two years.
Anytime someone tells me that I have to re-load my OS, I know I'm talking to the wrong person. Reloading the OS and all the programs is always the easiest resolution for the person giving the advice. It may work, but it's not always necessary. After having done that a couple of times, I decided to buy another laptop hard drive and clone my internal drive to it every couple of weeks. If my drive goes bad, or I need to reload every thing, I just swap the drives, and restore files which have been updated since the last cloning.
I found some instructions on Intuit's Turbotax website which I will try when I return home from the weekend, if I haven't heard from Adobe.
I wish that I could paste the link; just google "error 1935 turbotax" and it's usually at the top.
I'll attach a screen print so you can see what it should look like.

Chinese characters in Lightroom book module

I'm pasting translations of Chinese characters into text blocks in Lr 4.3 and I am getting a high percentage of them showing incorrectly as a square block with an "X" through it. They paste just fine into Notepad. Any thoughts? Also, is the upload to Blurb of Chinese characters fixed in Lr 4.3?

The \ key will hide and show the header bar in the book module and the Create Saved Book button is at the right of that header bar.
The outlined area is what shows and hides when the \ key is pressed. Maybe you have a keyboard that has a different key for \? On my keyboard the \ key is just above the Enter key.
You can also use the View / Show Header Bar in the LR menus across the top:
If this doesn't work, then can you provide a screenshot of your LR book module?
