Print Module - Page Panel: Page options & Photo Info lost

In the print module there are only 4 features left now in my final release version of LR3:
1. Page Background colour
2. Identity Plate
3. Watermarking
4. Cut Guides.
Victoria Bampton described also the features with a screenshot of LR3b2 in her "Missing FAQ-Rough Cut" (page 366):
4. cut guides did not exist, but instead Page options with tick boxes, then 5. Photo Info drop down box, then 6. Font Size.
What has happened?
How do I cover the following use case: Create an invitation with photos and own free text about date/time/venue?
Please don't answer "export a jpg from Lightroom and then use MS Word or some other editor".
From the beta phase I got the impression that creating such a pdf should be possible directly from Lightroom.

How do I cover the following use case: Create an invitation with photos and own free text about date/time/venue?
Lightroom's text layout features might not be as powerful as you might thought. You're option are:
Use a custom Identity plate to add some static text or graphic anywhere on the page.
Use watermarking to add some static text or graphic anywhere on the photo.
Use Photo Info to add some metadata, such as IPTC location or capture time, somewhere around your photo.

    Not possible. This is a file-specific setting, not an application-wide

  • Pages Panel - pages on wrong side of gutter

    I've inherited a file that might have been created in InD 4.0. I'm working in 5.0.
    When I insert or delete pages in the pages panel, they're going to the right side of the gutter.
    In some cases I can manually move them to the left, but some won't let me. Right now I have three spreads that are all on the right side of the gutter, stacked. If I apply master pages, it sees these as both being right hand pages. How do I move them to left|right, when dragging doesn't work?

    It's probaly a page numbering issue (and maybe combined with not allowing page shuffling for the documne to selected spreads). ID normally puts odd numbered pages on the right, even numbers on the left. If you have two odd or even number pages in a row you would see this, or it may be the shuffling.

  • "Extended Photo Info" lost/invisible after migration to new Mac with 10.6.2

    I just migrated my iPhoto library to my new Mac running OSX 10.6.2 from a Mac running OSX 10.3 I did this by copying the "Pictures/iPhoto Library" folder to an external drive. Today I tried to use "Show Extended Photo Info", and information appears to be lost? There is no Camera or Exposure information. I re-imported a photo from an old e-mail, and it does have the information! Do the Event/Location/Face features cause this to be deleted from my photos? I used these feature a lot before noticing anything was wrong.
    Any ideas? Can I somehow check to see if the JPEG file still has the information? It is not too late to re-do the library import. I cannot live without the exposure information, as I like to play with my camera settings.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. After copying the library to the external HD did you open it directly with iPhoto? When iPhoto 09 converted that library to the latest version it would not have done anything to lose the EXIF data which is stored in the library's database files.
    You didn't import that library into a new library did you? If you didn't then try rebuilding the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Printing on 4x6 paper from LR's print module?

    I'm trying to print a set of photos on 4x6 photo paper but the prints come out on the 8x11 paper sheets of my HP Photosmart 7520 printer. I've read all the forums on that topic and my settings are correct. The preview displays the images in the correct format, yet when I print, it comes out at the bottom right-hand corner of a full sheet of paper.
    I don't have that problem in Photoshop nor in Mac's preview (which is what I've had to default to doing). I use a MacBook Pro.
    Again, it works fine everywhere else, except when printing from LR5 itself. Judging from entries in the forums, this appears to be a problem, but I've not seen a solution listed. Help?!
    Thanks in advance,
    Michele

    In the print module, go to page setup (bottom left of screen), and when the printer setup screen pops up.  Set it for 4X6 as you would for Preview.  You will see the new size reflected on the main preview window.  Adjust the borders and size on the right panel, and choose print one.  Should work.

  • Weird icon next to pages in Pages menu...

    I'm seeing this little icon, see attached pic, next to all my spreads in my pages menu and I don't remember seeing it before. What on earth is it?

    Indicates that there is some form of transparency on the page, whether thought an Effect applied in InDesign, or by a transparent image linked.
    You can turn it off or on in the Pages panel menu Options...

    Ltr 5  I chose to print photo info on the bottom of my print.  Chose Page Options and after the photo printed the writing on the bottom was backwards?

    Upside down and backwards? Were you using the identity plate to do this?  Make sure the option next to the identity plate checkbox says 0 ( no rotation)

  • Print Module: Auto-Rotate to fit and Photo Info Text

    When in the print module with "Auto-Rotate to fit" selected, A landscape images correctly rotates to fit the page, but the text that is selected in the "Photo Info" setting does not rotate. Thus, the text appears along the left side of the image .
    Any suggestions to get it to appear correctly on the bottom?
    Also, Font size is selectable but not font type.

    What OS?

  • Can't find photo info option for print custom package

    Am I being very stupid as the "photo info" option in "Page" appears for any of my user templates, but not when I create a new custom package. Just ends at "cut guidlines". I'm trying to print 2 landscape and 1 portrait on the same sheet with their captions.
    Thanks for any advice
    Mike

    It is available in single image/contact sheet.
    That means single image /different images
    But indeed NOT in Custom Package

  • Photos printing in negative in Pages, etc.

    Not sure if this is something others have addressed and I apologize it is somewhere in the archives but no time to read old posts...
    I recently imported photos from my PC (saved via HP editing software that came with HP printer). They all showed up nicely in iPhoto with no problems. Now when I drag them to use in iWork (i.e. Pages), they look like they should in preview, but when I print them, they all print like the color negatives. I tried dragging photos that were NOT imported from the PC (rather directly from my camera hooked up to the iMac) and those photos printed just fine in Pages, etc. Any idea what is going on? Is there some sort of compatibility issue with the photos being originally from my PC and saved using the HP printer software? All of the photos are .jpg's still. HELP!
    I found somewhere that I should try printing using the PDF version and that didn't work either. The only way I could get the photos to print right was using them in Word:mac and quite frankly, it's not as user friendly as Pages! But if that is my only option, I can live with it!
    I have an HP Photosmart 7850 and have searched in vain for any info on it specifically.
    Any info is MUCH appreciated!
    Thanks

    I'm also getting the negative photo printing on my HP Deskjet 6980. Everything prints fine using Pages 1.0 and OS X 10.4 Tiger. Then I bought a new iMac with Pages 3.0 and OS X 10.5 Leopard. Now if I print the same Pages document, it prints all the photos negative. Same problem when printing a PDF of this document when using Preview.
    Thanks for the Adobe Reader tip. It prints fine using this workaround.
    I hope Apple and HP issues a real fix for this soon. Please send your feedback to Apple to "help" them along:

  • How can I put current date and time in Photo Info (Print module)?

    I often use the Photo Info option in the Print Module to caption my proofs with File Number plus the date and time the print is made.  This allows me to match up the print to the History state for the image, so I know which print version I'm looking at.  I've always wanted to get Lightroom to automatically enter the date and time the print is made.  It obviously knows this info, since it stamps the History state with date and time.  Currently I have to modify my caption manually with Custom text each time I make a print.  This is a major PITA.  Has anyone figured out how to get Lightroom to do this?

    There is a Date/Time title in the titles browser, does just what it says...

  • I would like to print my Pages document on Matte Photo Paper

    I would like to print my Pages document on Matte Photo Paper which is in the rear feeder of my Canon Pixma MX882 printer. The print function in Pages/Yosemite does not give me that option.The only options are to print on plain paper from the cassette. When I print images from iPhoto, I have more paper options. When I try to convert the doc to a jpeg, with Graphic Converter so I can drop it in iPhoto, the result is very blurred almost unreadable.

    Have you gone to Canon's website and downloaded the very latest Printer Driver for your Model?
    Also have you looked amongst the paper handling options in your Print dialogue for the rear feeder option.
    What is stopping you putting the high quality paper in your regular paper cassette?

  • Minor bug in Print module (numbering of Contact Sheet pages)

    I have selected one image from the Library or the film strip, went to the Print module and selected "5x8 Contact Sheet" from the Template Browser. On the top/left corner, it states "Page 1 of 2", while obviously there is one page only. Adding more pictures to fill in multiple pages, and moving from one page to another, the indication on top/left is recurrently wrong, e.g. indicating Page 2 of 2 when I am on 1 of 2. Numbering in the lower right rectangle is correct, instead.

    Lightroom automatically wraps text under the thumbnail in contact sheets. The Text Template Editor does not allow you to enter line breaks. So, if your Filename is long enough to fill the first line, the caption will start with the second. If not, you can tweak the template somehow so that it looks the way you want.

  • Print Module - Is it possible to show the single pages in the custom package?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm using Lr4.
    I'd like to prepare a multiple pages package in the Print Module.
    I need to view each single page, as because every time I add new page the cells become smaller and it's hard to arrange the images well.
    Is it possible to do that?
    Thanks.
