Printing book to a PDF

My goal is to create a PDF with the high-res photos from the book. I click the Print... button and choose the option to save to PDF. However, the PDF does not contain the high-res versions of the photos. The images in the book are referenced from another drive, drive is connected and the file look just fine when building the book. I compared a PDF version from another book I created last year using Aperture 2 and the file size of the PDF was like 115MB. This book has a few less pages and comes in at just 4MB. This is what really alerted me to the low-res images.
I've tried to create a new book with several different images and just can't seem to get the PDF created with the high res images using the print option.
Thanks for any help with this!  I'm planning to send this PDF to the print shop tomorrow (hopefully).
Thanks, John

It is my understanding that FrameMaker uses the setting stored in the first document of the book when creating a PDF from a book. So, open the first file in the book and make a PDF, setting your bookmarks as you want for the whole book. Then create the PDF of the book. Check the settings before you click Print to make sure they are what you want. You may have to make a few changes, but it should remember them the next time.
I work with FM 9, so this may not be relevant to FM11. I find it necessary to open the PDF settings dialog each time I make a PDF of a book, and click Save/OK/whatever, to make sure the bookmarks are created correctly. The settings are always correct, no changes needed; but I find it necessary to open the dialog and close it to get the bookmarks correctly indented in resulting PDF. It may have been fixed in FM11.

    Hi pissedadobeuser,
    Does this issue occur with any particular web page?
    Are you able to print the webpage to 'Adobe PDF' to convert it to pdf.
    Which Browser version, OS version and Acrobat version are you using?

  • OK, I need to be able to have a linked TOC, and also have destinations created in FM10 that will not be lost when I 1. Save the book as a PDF. then 2.  need the PDF to be as small as possible, but without losing my destinations. Anyone know how to do that

    OK, I need to be able to have a linked TOC, and also have destinations created in FM10 that will not be lost when I 1. Save the book as a PDF; then 2. I need the PDF to be as small as possible, but without losing my destinations. Anyone know how to do that??
    I had been saving as a PDF and then reducing the size of the PDF by printing it as a PDF with a degree of image compression. I write manuals with a LOT of screen captures and line art that needs to be clear. So it is a balancing act between image clarity and PDF size. The PDFs on the web need to be smaller - sure you can undertsand.
    Anyway, when I print the PDF again, I lose both my destinations and bookmarks.
    Anyone know of any way to avoid that?

    Control the images by creating a custom PDF Job Options and then selecting it in the PDF Job Options drop-down of the PDF setup dialog box (File > Save as PDF...)
    Create the custom PDF Job Options file with Distiller. If you do not have Distiller, open the Printing Preferences of the Adobe PDF printer. Start with the Smallest File Size Job Options settings and Edit.

  • How do I maintain bookmarks in multiple documents when exporting a book file to PDF?

    I am using a book file to organize 10 individual indesign documents. Each document has its own set of bookmarks and links, and their are links that go to other documents within the book as well. How do I (using CS3) print my book file to PDF while maintaining all the interactive components? I want my complete list of bookmarks to appear within the bookmark pane, and I want all of the interactive links in the document to work when they are clicked in the PDF. Doing this for one document is simple, set the preferences to enable the bookmarks and links. However, none of these PDF export settings seem to work when printing the entire book.
    Help!

    I had it open, just wasn't looking in the right spot. Found it... thanks a bundle. This has made my day... as long as the bookmarks work when I export.
    Thanks!

  • Unable to export book layout to PDF or BLURB! Using Lightroom 4.4's book module on Mac OS X 10.6.8.

    After investing a bunch of time laying out a photo book, I would like to generate a PDF in order to proof it before sending the book to BLURB for printing. After numerous attempts, I am unable to generate a PDF of the book or, by clicking the 'Send Book to BLURB' button, access the sign in window for uploading to BLURB. Although, if I create a new book (without images or text) I am able to access the window for saving it (the blank book) as a PDF to my hard drive and I am also able to access the sign in window for uploading to BLURB. I could sure use some help. Please let me know what I might be doing wrong! Thank you very much.

    You're running PowerPC code under Rosetta emulation on an Intel based system -- and Rosetta has become increasingly unstable (and Apple got rid of it in 10.7, so they won't be fixing any of the bugs)
    Your best solution is to upgrade to an Intel native version of Photoshop.

  • After upgrading from FM 9 to 11, FM crashes when the Print Book command is used. Suggestions?

    After upgrading from FrameMaker 9 to 11, the program crashes when the Print Book command is selected to print files that were converted from FM 9 to FM11. (Resulting .pdf files are problematic, w/ broken links and non-functioning bookmarks.)  Has anyone encountered this issue, and can you suggest a workaround? Thank you!

  • Can't Print Book from iPhoto or Preview, but Can Print from Adobe Accrobat

    I have spent 2.5 hours on the phone with HP, an am now unsure if the problem is with HP or Apple.
    When I try to print a single page from an iPhoto Book (or a group of pages), I receive an error message on the HP 4650 printer (49.4C02). I saved the book as a PDF and tried to print from Preview with the same results. I then opened the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat and WAS able to print. I am able to print individual photos from iPhoto.
    I searched this discussion board for problems printing to the HP 4650. One suggestion was to use the driver for the HP 4600. I tired that and it produced the same error on the printer.
    Using Adobe Acrobat is a viable work-a-round, but I am curious why I cannot print a book from iPhoto. Any thoughts as to why Adobe Acrobat works and iPhoto and Preview do not?
    Thanks,
    -Dale

    HP has _ a firmware release that addresses this error _ - have you installed it?

  • When I click Buy Book this appears our book appears to have default text that has not been edited. Printed books will not include this text. Do you want to continue? will the text I have sellected still be ok or will the book have missing text help Pleas?

    I just spent 3 days creating a book [32 pages], with photos and text but when I click Buy Book In iPhoto this appears>
    Our book appears to have default text that has not been edited. Printed books will not include this text. Do you want to continue?
    My question is will the text I have sellected to use still be ok, am I safe to continue and buy or will the book have missing text ?
    The book is for special birtday in 2 weeks time  Please Help.G
    <Email Edited by Host>

    Yes, you're safe to continue.  That means that there are text boxes that you did not put any text into and they contain the holding text which will not be printed.  That text is shown in a light grayt and is in Latin.  Normally you can just put a space in the text box to replace the holding text so as not to get that warning message.
    Before ordering the book proof the book according to this Apple document: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture. Check the pdf file for any missing text or photos and any warning indicators in the text boxes indicating that some of the text has exceeded the space allotted in the text box.
    Keep the pdf file to compare with the printed copy when you reciive it.

  • Degraded quality of photo printing book in Aperture 3

    Hi,
    I've isolated an issue in the print book function of Aperture 3 that drove me crazy in the last ten days:
    I've created a custom size book to deliver to a local print service via "save as pdf" function, but something gone wrong because the quality of the pdf isn't good as the original photos.
    After days of trials I've found where the problem rises up, so I'll try to explain step by step below:
    I've identified one critical photos that well shows the problem and I've "printed to pdf" from the normal print photo function of Aperture and the results was correct:
    So I've created a book and put that photo in a page and I've "print to pdf" the book. The results was degraded like you can see below (look at the dark areas that have lost every details):
    I've done the same operation in iPhoto, the "non Pro" minor App, and in a paradoxical way the iPhoto results PDF was perfect!
    I've also noticed that the preview image of the print dialog box of Aperture shows the defect unlike the dialog box of iPhoto:
    Aperture:
    iPhoto:
    So finally seems that something in the print engine of books in Aperture is broken and ruins the photos "before" are printed, and           apparently no setting seems to help.
    I've done this tials on a MacPro Lion 10.7.5 ad Aperture 3.4.3, MacBook Pro Lion 10.7.5 ad Aperture 3.4.3 and MacPro Snow Leopard with aperture 3.1 and 3.2 always with the same results.
    you can download the generated PDF here:
    pdf Aperture Photo:
    http://temp.paolorossi.me/ApertureImagePrint.pdf
    pdf Aperture book:
    http://temp.paolorossi.me/ApertureBookPrint.pdf
    pdf iPhoto book:
    http://temp.paolorossi.me/iPhotoBook.pdf

    I've done another test:
    I've created a sample image with 4 colour faded bars with values from 0 to 128 for RGB and gray then I've putted on a page in Aperture book and iPhoto book then I've printed on PDF.
    Below you can see the results: iPhoto is good whereas Aperture is ruined.
    iPhoto results:
    Aperture results:
    I've also noticed the Aperture results is influenced by the color profile chosed on the selector in the box, but no profile at all gives a good job , every profile returns a weird custom defect, also with "no profile" choice.

  • Ordering Problem - Prints & Books

    I am unable to order books or prints in iPhoto 5.0.4.
    When I click the "Order Prints" button, nothing happens at all. When I click "Buy Book," the book is assembled, but then nothing else.
    In each case, iPhoto simply returns to the state it was in before I clicked. No ordering info comes up, no crash, no error message.
    My internet connection is broadband and works fine. My account info is up to date. My Library is 4.6 GB.
    Any ideas about what the problem could be? On my end or at Apple?
    Thanks.

    try quitting iPhoto and deleting the iPhoto preference file - "your username" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist - when you launch iPhoto a new fresh default preference file will be created - reset any personal preferences you have changed and try
    Also before you order it is a good idea to preview the book as a PDF and save that for reference if there are any problems

  • How can I fix the text in my photo book that reads"your default text had not been edited. Printed books will not include this text?"

    How can I fix the text in my photo book that reads"your default text had not been edited. Printed books will not include this text?"

    You will get this warning, if your book includes textboxes that still include the default text, like "Insert Title". You need to find these boxes and add your own text.  Look for boxes like this:
    Make a PDF-preview of your book and look, where the preview differs from what you are seeing in iPhoto.

  • Strange text in printed book

    I have just received my book from Apple and for some reason the text in two please is corrupted.
    On the front cover it was supposed to say "Oceana 2005" but instead it has "Oceana2c00e" with some overlapping of the "2" and the "c".
    Also on the inside I have an introduction page with a title and all the places we visited, it is all OK except for the exact same fault as above in the title of the page.
    I have reviewed the book in iPhoto and the issue is not visible there.
    I have also printed the book to a PDF file and the problem is not visible there.
    Has anyone else seen this problem before?
    Ian

    I've not heard of that particular problem. Contact Apple thru the Customer Service-Ordering Books page and request a refund. Then you can try to reorder.

  • ABLE TO PRINT IMAGES, UNABLE TO PRINT BOOKS!

    I saw a message a while back with the same problem, but with no answer. Please help! I can print images, but i can't print a book's page, unless there's only text in the page!
    Thank you for your help!
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Aperture.
    Print image: YES
    Print book: NO
    Print book page with text only: YES
    Print book page with image: NO
    Print book page with text and image: NO
    Generated PDF from within Aperture, then tried printing it: same behaviour (got prints only for pages with text only).
    Any other PDFs in my computer print fine, whether pages with images, photos, text or combination of all of them.
    It seems that aperture is not only unable to print from its own system, but it inherits those flaws to the PDFs it generates as well.
    PLEASE HELP!
    Thank you.

  • Framemaker 10 trial version Print Book dialogue window

    Hi there,

  • FrameMaker crashes when selecting print book file

    I have recenctly update to TCS4. FrameMaker crashes when I select Print Book but will produce a PDF is I select Save As PDF.
    Anyone else experiencing this and have a resolution?

    While I agree that this should not occur, you've said you can produce a PDF...
    Is there a reason you don't want to print from the PDF?
    Many long-time Framers are so used to doing this that we don't even use the Print dialog anymore...
    That said, if you want to track down the culprit, try the excellent suggestions above:
    set printer to Adobe PDF
    MIF wash
    Create a new book, and open all files
    and add 2 more to the list:
    Ensure that all the alerts are checked in Edit > Preferences > Global > Alerts
    Update your book and address any missing resource messages
