Printing photo book as pdf vertical problem

The books are all set out in landscape mode, but when I chose print and save as pdf it become portrait and all the photos are chopped off to fit!
Any ideas how to fix this?
Cheers

For me, these settings are working:
But you could also try to create a PDF preview using the "preview Book" button in the "Buy Book" dialog. See:
        iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
This will create exactly the same PDF file as will be sent to Apple.

    You have Acrobat Pro on your system. It will try to open PDFs, and of course it will fail. You must uninstall it. Then, you will need a PDF reader. So install Adobe Reader. That seems quite simple, but perhaps something is wrong. If anything goes wrong with these two steps (1) uninstall Acrobat Pro (2) install Adobe Reader, then please let us know the details.

  • Ordering a printed photo book

    I am trying to order a printed photo book but when I type in my details my telephone number is rejected as invalid. I have ordered books previously with no problem. Any suggestions?

    By trial and error I have solved the problem. The "primary number" field is expecting seven digits but my number is only six digits. I tried putting a leading zero before my number and it was accepted. The leading zero was subsequently dropped automatically. I presume you can also put in a zero at the end but I didn't try that.

  • "primary number" when order the printed photo book

    i'm trying to order a printed photo book on apple NZ but when i type in my phone number,
    the field got 8 digits but my number has 9 digits. Any suggestion?
    PS: my mac from HK

    In the iPhoto preferences do you have NZ set as your print products country?
    Is there a leading zero you can leave out?

  • How can i set the orientation for a photo book (horizontal or vertical)

    how can i set the orientation for a photo book (horizontal or vertical)
    I like a photo book vertical format and i cant findet!!

    That was quick! Although my earlier search turned up nothing, when I posted my question the system immediately gave me a list of previous questions among which I found the following answer:

    select the photos and change the date/time - photo menu ==> adjust time and date to make a relative adjustment to a number of photos ==> batch change ==> time and date to set an absolute time date for them

  • Preview your photo book as pdf before clicking on 'Buy Book'.

    Hi, here is the learning from the recent problem I had with photo books.
    I would suggest that you save your book as a pdf file, before ordering. Preview your pdf file, and when you are satisfied, submit your order.
    Saving a book as a PDF file:
    1. Select the book in the Source list.
    2. Choose File > Print.
    3. Click Save As PDF
    In particular, you can see how the text which looks OK in the iPhoto program will be truncated in the printing. Suggest they need to put this as a required step in the ordering process - at the moment it is not explicitly mentioned.

    I created a pdf of a book in the three user controlled ways: 1 - via the Print and then save as pdf file; 2 - Right click in the book mode, selecting Preview and then saving and; 3 - Right clicking in the book mode and using the Save as PDF option.
    All three gave me the same page size, 11 x 8.5.
    Unfortunately iPhoto assembles and creates the pdf file after you click on the Buy Now button preventing the user from obtaining the temporary pdf file that is created for uploading and printing like we could in iPHoto 5. I suppose one could open the temp folder User/private/var/tmp/folders.501/iPhoto before clicking on that button, copy the book while it's getting uploaded and then quickly cancel the process or, if too late, go to the Apple order check page and cancel (must be done within an hour or so).
    My philosophy is if there's critical information that close to the edge of the photo then I didn't take the photo correctly. Then put a 1/4" black border around it in PSE or PS and use that.

  • Print photo book with billing and shipping addresses in different countries

    I live in the U.S. and would like to create photo books for family living in Europe. Rather than sending the book myself to Europe after having it first printed in the U.S. and shipped to me in the U.S., I would like to simply submit the book to the Apple print service in the country it is destined to anyway.
    Unfortunately, the Apple print service bases the country in which the order is fulfilled solely on the billing address of the credit card used, i.e. U.S. in my case. In addition, one can not choose a shipping country other than the country of the billing address.
    Has anyone else found a way around this limitation?

    I can't offer a way around, but at least for me in Europe it doesn't seem to be a problem: I have had Aperture books sent to England whilst the bill comes to me in Switzerland. I think I read once that quite a lot of Apple's European printing is done in Holland, maybe that makes a difference.
    More generally I do find Apple's way of dealing with international customers a bit irritating - I can only order software through the Swiss Apple-store in French or German...

  • When printing a book to PDF, bookmark definitions are not saved

    I recall seeing another post about this issue and I can't find it now, but none of the workarounds mentioned there worked for me, so here goes:
    I am working on a book migrated from FM 9 to FM 11, and when I print to PDF, I specify the bookmarks I want to display in the Bookmarks tab of the PDF Setup for Selected Files dialog. The PDF prints fine, but when I want to print the book again, FM doesn't remember my settings, forcing me to set the bookmarks from scratch every time. This has proven pretty tedious seeing that I'm working with an old book in which the styles aren't intiutive, so trying to remember all of them every time isn't the best of fun. When I print a single file in the book, the settings are saved properly.
    In the previous post, I remember reading that this was a bug in FM and trying the following suggested workarounds (none of which worked): Switching to structured mode; saving the desired setting in one file in the book, printing that document, and then printing the book (was supposed to result in FM remembering the settings for the entire book); saving the book right after it prints; selecting all files in the book and saving as PDF, as opposed to selecting the book and then File > Save as PDF.
    I'd be glad to know if anyone has any ideas, or if Adobe are planning to post a fix for this issue.

    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.

  • ? about image resolution/color correction when apple prints photo book

    My first time making a photo book. I color correct and sharpen all of my images in Adobe Lightroom 2 first. Then I save the jpegs and import into iPhoto to make a book. Is there an option for turning off auto color correction when the file is uploaded to apple for printing? Is there an accurate way to tell how the photos will print on the specific paper they use? Also, what print resolution should the photos be set to? Is 180 dpi enough? Thanks in advance.

    first read the Apple pages - http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/preparation_tips/ - and all of its links
    Second - I suspect you will be disappointed. Based on reports on these forums almost everyone who uses iPhoto exclusively to preprocess photos is extremely happy with the results. very often people you over process their photos using a third party program (including Lightroom, Photoshop, etc) are unhappy because the printing process is optimized for point and shoot cameras and iPhoto processing - it is NOT a professional desktop book process
    There are no options re color correction - it is built in again aimed at sRGB, point and shoot cameras and iPhoto processing
    Plus there have been reported incompatibilities between iPhoto and Lightroom
    The print resolution is what it is - if it will be less than 180 dpi you will get a waarning - it can be greater
    The papers they print on are specified here - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3412

  • Printing photo book one to page and legible

    I cannot figure out how to print one page at a time of my photo book so that I can proof it.  '
    The closest I have gotten is to print it both sides of book on one page, but I can't read it then.  Must be a simple way to see a hard copy.
    Advice welcome.  Thanks so much.

    Hope this is not a trick question so try this:
    1)    Select the image either in in the Editor or the Organizer, click on the create button and click on the Photo Prints
    2)    Click on the Print with Local Printer button;
    3)    The next window displays the default options for how the printed image will appear and also the options to change the print properties;
    4)    Click the Add button if you want to include more images in the print job; you can also remove any photos you don't want to print;
    5)    Select type of print – e.g. individual prints
    6)    Select Print Size
    7)    Now look for something like this:
    8)    Click on More options to get another screen like this:
    That is all to printing an image.  Hope this helps.
    To view the pictures correctly, just click on then to get an enlarged copy on the screen.

  • Printing Photo Book with 101+ Pages

    Sorry if this has been previously posted, but I could not find anything on this topic. Does anyone know of an online service that will print a photo book with more than 100 pages? I have a photo book I have created in PS6 to commemorate my parents trip to Europe for their 50th anniversary. All that time and effort and then I find out Kodak will only print up to 80 pages! I would really appreciate any suggestions on this!
    Thanks

    Thanks Trish. My book is actually 140 pages & viovio only goes to 120. At this point, guess I will look at deleting 20 pages (tough!) and using them. They seem to be the best option so far!

  • Print Photo Books

    The print service for photo books made in iphoto is quite expensive. Doe's anybody know another print service, where I could send my photo books?

    Is this what you're looking for?

  • The photo book review pdf file is fully smudged and there are many horizontal lines all over the pictures. the book looks absolutely ok , but the pdf is showing all problems. also when i uploaded the book, it was successful, but got an error message later

    I created a book on I photo and uploaded it yesterday. it was all ok and the order was accepted. However i got an error message today. The book looks perfect on I Photo, when i do a preview, the PDF file is totally smudged and there are 100s of horizontal lines all over the photos. Also the coloures are bleeding all over.
    what can be the case and how can i resolve this.
    samir

    if the book looks good order while in safe mode - then reboot into normal mode
    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.
    Apple will stand behind the order if it does not match your preview

  • Who is Now Printing Photo Books

    Got a ton of emails from MyPublisher stating they would no longer be supporting iPhoto books at the end of May. Who is doing the ink and paper work now for iPhoto? I ordered a book just before the deadline and it came out fine (except for one misspelling - typical idiot {me} error). It did not come in an MyPublisher box like some of the past ones have, but in an Apple box of the same configuration.
    I felt many of the MyPublisher emails were misleading since they implied that iPhoto would not be capable of printing books any longer.
    Message was edited by: imacwjb_hsv

    All of the books I've gotten from Apple, going back some 5 years, have been in Apple branded mailing boxes. It might be a Kodak subsidiary that's doing the printing.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Why does Frame 10 print 3 copies of the same chapter when I print a book to pdf?

    I am printing a multi-chapter book. The table of contents generates perfectly but when I go to print the pdf of the book, Frame prints 3 duplicate copies of each chapter and TOC. Why is it doing this and how can I turn off this 'feature'? It is a pain to have to keep deleting the chapters from the pdf in Acrobat.
    Thanks

    > Maybe you have the print dialog set to print 3 copies.
    And that could have been set in the application printer dialogs, or in the operating system printer setup/preferences (or both, but then you'd get 9).
    It can also be set locally on some printers, but I suspect that's not what's happening here.
    Is everything in the book tripled-printed, or just some?
    Is it printed cover-toc-body 3 times, or cover-cover-cover, tocx3, bodyx3?
    Are other PDFs printing correctly to the same printer (using the same driver)?
