Photo Quality on Picture Book

I am trying to create a picture book in iPhoto using photo's from my son's football team. Some are digital images, but most are scanned pictures. Many of the scanned pictures have warning indicators in the picture book maker that says the printed picture may not be of quality. I would hate to send it off as is and have a poor picture book. I no longer have the pictures to re-scan. Does anyone have any experience with picture books through iPhoto who has dealt with this before?

there is no answer for this? It totally depends on the pixel density of your photos and the size of the frame - the low res indicator comes on at below 180 dpi - a 179 dpi photo will probably still be acceptable - a 18 dpi one will not - it could be anything below 180 dpi
This article is for prints rather than books but it will give you a guide as to minimum photos size - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1135 - or simply multiply the frame size in inches by 180 and that will give you the minimum pixel size for your photo

    How do I do it?

    Use a photo editor that has that capability - Preview can - or use a graphics editor as an external editor for iPhoto - <a href="http://web.me.com/larryhn/iPhoto_08_(version_7.x.x)_FAQ/Graphic_programs.html"> click here for links to some to consider.</a>

  • I Photo book  - photo quality

    To whom it concerns:
    Back in December I ordered two books via iPhoto. They were for my mother about my father who had recently passed away. As I went through the process, I observed that two of the photos indicated low resolution. Rather than delete these two particular photos, I took a chance on them. Also, during the process I observed that a couple of the B & W photos appeared like "negatives", I switched them around or used smaller "frames" When I was done, only the two color photos indicated any problems. Turns out these turned out fine but some of the black and white photos printed like negatives even though they didn't appear like that on the screen after being adjusted. I am not one for returning things but I would like to know if there is any recourse, as this was not for me and it definitely has significant sentimental value.

    All I can say is the books I've created as gifts to my children for their children were received with absolute joy and appreciation (each book chronicled in pictures  the first year of each grandchild's life). Granted the sentimental factor had a lot to do with the recipient's enjoyment of the book but they were spetacular. The book with its glossy dust cover is a very impressinve way to present your photos. 
    As Larry has pointed out so many have posted here that they were very satisfried with their book and Apple is very good about correcting problems. 
    To make sure there are no errors in the book before you order preview the book as described in this Apple document: iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it. If the PDF file shows no errors, either in text typos (my biggest problem) or in missing photos, etc., the printed book will be error free.

  • Photo quality too poor for book

    When creating a book the program tells you that one or more photos may not have appropriate quality for the book you are creating but does not identify which photos. Is there a way to determine which ones?

    JA
    Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
    If you are getting a warning then there is a low quality photo (less than 180 dpi) in the book there will be a yellow warning triangle in the upper right hand corner of the photo in the book - go though the book page by page and looks for the yellow triangle

  • Create a Picture book, But I cannot find my photos

      This is the very first time I am using Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.   I clicked on "organize" and downloaded about 400 plus photos from my photo folders in my computer.  That went okay.  The next thing I thought I will create a Photo book.  Okay I selected a Family type of photo book.  I gave it a title (I believe I did it correctly) than turning to the next step, I can now select my photos for this book.  The only thing is I can't find where they are.  Where it says click here for photos, it brings me back not to my organizer where I just downloaded 400 pictures but to my computer files where I kept my photo folders.
         So what am I doing wrong?
      Next I am trying to find out how to "Tag" these pictures and place it a separate  file folders in my organizer.  I just can't find the tutorial that would show me how to do it.

    Thank you for your response:  But I am still having problem on the steps you have given.
    Here is what I did:
    1.  Open Adobe Photoshop Element 9.
    2,  Clicked on "Organize."
    3.  On the screen was one individual picture of the 400 plus photos I have in the organize file.  Before I followed your guidance I was looking for the button that says show all.  In other words show all my photos on the screen instead of individual ones.  I did not know how to do that.
         Following your guidance I did hold the the shift key on picture number, held it there till I scrolled down to all the photos.
    4.  With my finger still holding the shift key, I selected "Create" and selected picture book.  In there I had problem tying my text for a title for that book.
         Also on the bottom of the screen, I only saw one individual picture instead of all photos that I supposed ot have selected by holding the shift key.
         The confusing part is when you said "hold down the shift key."  Do I hold it down while scrolling down on all 400 pictures?
      Please clear this up... thank you again.

  • I am ready to order my iphoto picture book, but I want to change the binding from wirebound to hardcover.  Does anyone know how I can do that without losing my already assembled photo pages?

    I am ready to order my iphoto picture book, but I want to change the binding from wirebound to hardcover.  Does anyone know how I can do that without losing my already-assembled photo pages?

    Yes - select the book and duplicate it (Command - D) in case of problems - open it and click change theme and select the theme and the new style of binding
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    then order after you have carefully checked the preview

  • GAL photos quality degrade in Windows Phone

    Hi,
    we have Exchange 2010. I uploaded a few pictures to Active Directory using this free tool: http://youtu.be/PkdYmuPYujY (which is great). Everything looks fine in Outlook and in address book, but after syncing contacts with Windows Phone, it degrades pictures
    quality very much. Pictures looks good only on small size live tiles. When you go to particular contact, you can see poor quality. Of course when someone is calling the picture displayed is in the biggest size and looks horrible.
    Does anyone know how to increase quality of pictures of contacts?

    Hi,
    The GAL photos is imported and saved as the thumbnailPhoto attribute in Active Directory. And Exchange 2010 provides the
    Import-RecipientDataProperty cmdlet to easily import the photo.
    Generally, the
    thumbnailPhoto attribute itself supports photos of up to 100K, but the Import-RecipientDataProperty cmdlet in Exchange 2010 allows you to import only 10K or smaller files. Since there is no issue with the GAL photo sync and photo display in Outlook, the
    issue should be related to photo display in Windows phone. Please change a photo size with better
    Pixel to have a try.

  • Missing editing toolbar in Iphoto to make a picture book

    I'm trying to make an iphoto picture book but I'm missing an editing toolbar so I have no editing options.  When I go to "View" then "Show in Toolbar" - there are no editing options. Can somepone please point me in the right direction?

    Where are the editing options missing? When you are browsing your book project, or when you are browsing an event or album?
    In a book project, you can activate the editor by ctrl-clicking (or right-clicking) a photo in the book when you are viewing a page, and selecting  "Edit" from the contextual menu.

  • Photo Quality in iDVD

    I work with still photos only. Want a slideshow that maintains photo image quality. iMovie coverts to video file & degrades the quality. Changed to FotoMagico. Maintains photo quality in slideshow & offers transitions, KB effect & title slides. It exports to iDVD or Roxio Toast to burn DVD. After the burn in iDVD, the images are distorted and the transition movements are very choppy. Is iDVD coverting this to video images, thereby degrading the photo quality? Is there a way to use iDVD and maintain quality? Would Toast be better? My goal is to produce a photographic quality "still photo" slideshow using transitions, KB, etc. I am selecting NTSC 4:3, best quality in both programs. Getting very frustrated trying to output the quality I can see on my display in a DVD...any suggestion?

    Hi,
    I feel like I am back at school...
    1. I have the BETA version because when I tried to export or burn a DVD neither worked. They knew that was a problem & sent me the BETA fix. Now I can burn or export.
    2. My problem is whatever I do with the burn results in loss of image quality. I have been corresponding with Werner at FotoMagico who has been very helpful. He says image quality from still photos which have been authored & burned can not maintain image quality the technology just doesn't exist unless I go to a pro DVD lab and have them work with compressions per frame. He specifically said it is due to limitations with the MPEG-2 stream, which is standard in DVD playback. The little I have read on this is over my head.
    3. Right now I will forgo the idea of playback on a TV. Let's just deal with computer. When I burn to DVD as my option and it opens in iDVD it results in degraded images. I don't know what to select in iDVD and or FotoMagico to change this result or if it is even possible. I run a G5 with a 23" monitor, most current software on ALL prgrams. Picture files are digital froma Nikon D200 and a mix of negative and slides scanned in with a Nikon CoolScan 5000 and moved into iPhoto via the scanner or a transfer from Adobe. I am having the problem with all these types. What do you mean by resolution in iPhoto?
    4. I transfer from FotoMagico to iDVD by selecting 'Burn DVD' and it opens to 'iDVD'. I have left all settings on FotoMagico and iDVD at default settings and Werner said that should be okay. FYI - I have tried changing slideshow setting from display reolution to 23" monitor to NTSC. Nothing seems to change image quality.
    5. I would like at this point to be able to maintain image quality for transer in Quick time, upload to .MAC web account, etc. Help me there I am lost.
    6. Someone on this discussion also suggested burning to iDVD using the data portion only of the DVD using disk utility. I need help there. Also will that reproduce sound or only the photos. I understand that TV's and DVD players will not accept this mode and that is okay until someone figures out a way to maintain image quality for TV w/o an expensive lab.
    7. Werner said this is possible but they suggest copying the entire package (document as well as images and audio) and move it to iDVD or Toast. On the target devise install a FOtoMagico demo version & run it there. or if the target machine is not a Mac & FotoMagico can 't be nstalled there, you can export manually to a QuickTime movie by selecting 'export' frpm the File menu. Use 'HD preset or 'QuicltTime' & burn the resulting file to a DVD. My husband & I will work on this (with a tech if nec) and maybe you have some thoughts as well.
    At the end of this I think I will know more about video and FPS and MPEg's than I ever intended. Oh well, a little knowledge never hurt anyone!
    One last thing, what is a BETA for NTSC. I hate to bug Werner again without knowing what this is!

  • Photo Quality horrible in iWeb....any ideas?

    Hey everyone. I just finished making my website. Its very early, and Im just working out the kinks until worrying about making it a bit more appealing. Anyways, one of the issues Im having is photo quality. I am taking my photos on an 8mp camera. When I import them into iWeb they look compressed and horrible when viewed (once enlarged through slideshow or just clicking). If you want to check out the website to see what I mean, the adress is:
    http://web.mac.com/jon_leibowitz/iWeb/Site/Home.html
    go to gallery and click on any of them. The main aim of my website is my photography, so its crucial for the photos to look top notch. btw, Im using high resolution pictures, imported them into iPhoto, and then used the multimedia button to import them into iWeb. Thanks!

    Hello Jonathan!
    Really nice photos! You, no doubt, have a much better eye than I do for details and such and it's no wonder that various compression artifacts would be more noticeable to you! Your photos look very acceptable to me.
    The downside to the iPhoto-to-iWeb one-click automatic process is that you the photographer lose control over two things... the quality of resolution scaling and the quality of jpg (re)compression. Preprocessing of your images in something like Photoshop would definitely give you more control over these variables and would most likely allow you to see more acceptable images as posted online.
    For your information, the max resolution for the Apple enhanced slideshows is 800x600. If you import a photo at any higher resolution, iWeb will take over again and resize and recompress your photo. So my recommendation to you would be to preprocess your images to make them look good at 800x600 and prevent iWeb from doing anything else to your images.
    I hope this helps.

  • Crunmmy photo quality in Safari

    I get poor quality photos quality using Safari in any site.No problem with Firefox.My daughter running e-Mac with same Mac system no problem with Safari. New to Mac and a bit disappointed,I thought Mac were the tops for graphics & photos.Any ideas please. Many thanks

    Hi Tools,
    Try turning off the accelerator, I'll bet that is the culprit.
    The accelerators usually downsample the picture quality to reduce the filesize of the images at the expense of quality, but improving speed.
    I think they usually work by directing requests to a proxy server - in firefox you normally have to set this manually which may be why it appears to work fine, but Safari doesn't.
    Enjoy your sleep and catch you tomorrow...

  • Losing photo quality

    I am creating a movie using both video and still photos. With a number of the photos that I'm importing to the movie (some are scanned jpegs, some are not), I'm losing a tremendous amount of photo quality. They look great in iPhoto, but in iMovie they look terrible. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    You'll find lots of useful information in earlier threads discussing this topic. Try searching for "blurry", for example.
    Here's one:

  • Photo quality follow-up questions

    I read OT's response to a photo quality question and had some follow-ups I'd like to ask. Aside from cropping photos to 4:3 format does increasing the dpi of the photos have any effect in improving the quality of the final image in iDVD?
    I'm making a dvd of family photos for my wife. Some were taken with a digital camera, some are photos scanned by myself and some are photos given to us by relatives that they scanned. I'm putting them together in iMovie, leaving them static - no pans or zooms, keeping the image size at a value of "1", setting the duration at 5 seconds and grouping them by subject using chapter markers so I can get around the 99 photos limitation. (I have over 1500 photos.)
    I've already burned on dvd and was disappointed by the "jaggies" on most of the photos when viewed on my cinema display. Haven't looked at the dvd on a regular tv (CRT, not flat screen/digital). The images looked great in iMovie. It occurred to me that increasing the dpi - most were at 72 dpi - to 300 might improve this issue all other things remaining the same. I can do that easily in Photoshop, but was wondering if that would be a waster of time - especially if no improvement would be realized.
    Thanks for any thoughts/help that anyone can offer.

    iMovie HD 6.0.3 and iDVD 6.0.4
    As far as I know - this will give max quality possibly when making a Video-DVD
    resolution: 72dpi or 300dpi
    depends on size
    A small picture 200 x 300 pixels - will be worse than a 1200 x 1600 picture.
    Resolution doesn't matter as I see it.
    iMovie and/or iDVD will try to scale it to fit - and up or down-scaling
    will not be done kindly.
    Still using my 2016 × 1512 - usually give good result in iMovie
    but if I Share to iDVD (iMovie HD6 6.0.3 or 4) - BAD RESULT
    I just close the iMovie project
    Drop the iMovie project icon (With a black star on it) into the iDVD application (menu window).
    Result best possibly for a Video-DVD - DVD standard is the limit.
    Else that determine the final quality on the DVD
    DVD quality
    1. iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.
    2. Video from
    • FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not self-containing, no conversion)
    • iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
    when the movie includes photos and the Ken Burns effect NOT is used. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
    • iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not meant to go to iDVD. Go via Media Browser or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
    3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly e.g. x4 or x1 (in iDVD’08 or 09  this can also be set)
    This can also be done with Apple’s Disk Utilities application when burning from a DiskImage.
    4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
    use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc). For SD-Video - if HD-material is used I guess that 4 to 5 times more would do.
    5. I use Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
    6. I use DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW) - DVD-R play’s on more and older DVD-Players
    7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
    (I use JES_Deinterlacer to keep frame per sec. same from editing to the Video-DVD result.)
    8. Don’t burn more than three DVDs at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while before next batch.
    iDVD quality also depends on.
    • DVD is a standard in it self. It is Standard Definition Quality = Same as on old CRT-TV sets and can not
    deliver anything better that this.
    HD-DVD was a short-lived standard and it was only a few Toshiba DVD-players that could playback.
    These DVDs could be made in DVD-Studio Pro. But they don’t playback on any other standard DVD-Player.
    Blu-Ray / BD can be coded onto DVDs but limited in time to - about 20-30 minutes and then need
    _ Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro incl. BD-component
    _ BD disks and burner if full length movies are to be stored
    _ BD-Player or PlayStation3 - to be able to playback
    The BD-encoded DVDs can be play-backed IF Mac also have Roxio DVD-player tool. Not on any standard Mac or DVD-player
    Full BD-disks needs a BD-player (in Mac) as they need blue-laser to be read. No red-laser can do this.
    • HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx. 25Gb.
    less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
    • How it was recorded - Tripod vs Handheld Camera. A stable picture will give a much higher quality
    • Audio is most often more critical than picture. Bad audio and with dropouts usually results in a non-viewed movie.
    • Use of Video-editor. iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not the tools for DVD-production. They discard every second line resulting in a close to VHS-tape quality.
    iMovie 1 to HD6 and FinalCut any version delivers same quality as Camera record in = 100% to iDVD
    • What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
    other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
    Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
    strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
    Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
    • What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
    (If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JES_Deinterlacer_3.2.2 do the conversion)
    (Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
    (US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
    (EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
    UNLESS. They are play-backed by a Mac - then You need not to care
    • What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
    • How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD’08 or 09
    Pro Quality (only in iDVD 08 & 09)
    Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
    Best / High Performances (most often my choice before Pro Quality)
    1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD 08 & 09
    (x4 by some and may be even better)
    2. Project info. Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD 08 & 09.
    Region codes.
    iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
    DVD Studio pro can set Region codes.
    1 = US
    2 = EU

    What it turned out to be was the "quality" settings in iDVD. The total clip time was NOT over 2 hours or 4.7GB, yet iDVD created massive visual artifacts on the "professional quality" setting.
    I switched the settings to "high quality" which solved the problem. According iDVD help, "high quality" determines the best bit rate for the clips you have.
    I have NEVER seen iDVD do this before, especially when I was under the 2 hour and 4.7GB limits.
    For anyone else, there seem to be 2 places in iDVD to set quality settings, the first is under "preferences" and the second under "project info." They do NOT seem to be linked (i.e. if you change one, the other is NOT changed). take care, Mario
    to get this to work I
    • Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
    • Use Verbatim DVD-R (absolutely no +/-RW)
    • Set down burn speed to x4 - less burn errors = plays on more devices
    • No other process running in background as - ScreenSaver, EnergySaver OR TIMEMACHINE etc
    • and I'm very careful on what kind of video-codecs, audio file format and photo file formats I use
    • and I consider the iDVD Bug - never go back to video-editor to change/up-date - if so Start  a brand new iDVD project
    • Chapters set as they should - NO one at very beginning and no one in any transition or within 2 sec from it
    • Lay-out - Turn on TV-Safe area and keep everything buttons, titles etc WELL INSIDE not even touching it !
    Try to break the process up into two stages
    • Save as a DiskImage (calculating part)
    • Burn from this .img file (burning stage)
    To isolate where the problem starts.
    Another thing is - Playing it onto a Blu-Ray Player. My PlayStation3 can play BD-disks but not all of my home made DVDs so to get this to work I
    • Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
    • Use Verbatim DVD-R (absolutely no +/-RW)

    TO GET IT TO WORK SLIGHTLY FASTER
    • Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up hard disk
    • No other programs running in BackGround e.g. Energy-Saver
    • Don’t let HD spin down or be turned off (in Energy-Save)
    • Move hard disks that are not to be used to Trash - To be disconnected/turned off
    • Goto Spotlight and set the rest of them under Integrity (not to be scanned)
    • Set screen-saver to a folder without any photo - then make an active corner (up right for me) and set
    pointer to this - turns on screen saver - to show that it has nothing to show
    • No File Vault on - Important
    • NO - TimeMachine - during iMovie/iDVD work either ! IMPORTANT
    • Lot's of icons on DeskTop/Finder also slows down the Mac noticeably
    • Start a new User-Account and log into this and iMovie get's faster too - if a project is in a hurry
    • And let Mac run on Mains - not just on battery

  • IPhoto library slideshow - to iDVD photo quality

    Hi,
    i'm new to Mac computers, just got my first one - and I've created a photo slide show with iPhoto and exported/burned it with iDVD with my own menu and everything and all went well, except the photo quality is AWFUL. The pictures are jagged and not as sharp as they appear in iPhoto. I checked and watched the mpeg file it created in order for it to go to iDVD, and that was great - is it the Mpeg2 encoding that is ruining the quality?
    I tried creating it in iMovie and it's the same thing.

    I am trying to create a project for a client. It is a slideshow with music. Seems simple??? NOPE!
    I thought to use imovie and burn it to a CD, but am I crazy?
    I have questions and need answers please!
