Reorder of book from PDF format

I need to reorder a book that has already been published, but only have a copy in the PDF file format on DVD. how can I get Apple to publish from this disk and format?
Thanks

Dr. A:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There used to be a way you could fool iPhoto into using an old pdf file in place of the one it creates for printing but iPhoto 6 has eliminated that possibility. Also I've been told that myPublisher now requires you to use their plugin to order direct from iPhoto instead of uploading a pdf for them to print. It doesn't work for V5 so you might contact them to see if they will do it for a V5 user (a little stretching of the truth).
Here's a hint on how to save them for future printing:
1 - create a separate library for creating books.
2 - in your full library put the photos for the book in an album.
3 - using iPhoto Library Manager, copy that album from the full library to the book library. You can also use it to add photos later if deemed necessary.
4 - create and order the book.
5 - when done, burn the entire book library folder to a CD for storage.
Then if you need a new book, copy the library folder back from the CD, open it and order another book.
Do you Twango?

  • Change photos from PDF format to Jpeg

    how do I change photos from PDF format to Jpeg?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Open the existing pdf file with Preview.
    In preview, select File, Save As, and click on the Format window to change PDF to JPEG.
    Then click the Save button.
    Quality may suffer in the translation from one format to another.
    In a quick test, changing Quality to 'Best' and Resolution to 300 dpi, the text in my sample page was crisp, but the original photo area was very pixelated.
    The original image in the pdf file was also pixelated when viewed at 100%
    A portion of the test image and text at shown at 100%. (Click on the image to view full size):

  • Save as PDF or Save Book As (pdf format) Causes Frame 8 to try to quit after creating PDF

    I have Framemaker 8p273 and Acrobat distiller 8.1.3.
    When trying to creating PDFs from books using either Save as PDF OR Save Books As (PDF) file, the PDF creates FINE but the program then attempts to quit by throwing up weird dialog boxes.
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1.Open any book
    2.Use File-->Save as PDF or File-->Save Books As and then choose type PDF
    3.PDF created fine - no errors reported in Distiller window
    4. Framemaker then throws up a small dialog box that says "cannot quit." You cannot close this box, only click OKAY.
    The only other issue that arises might be a "cannot print some graphics - will print as gray boxes"
    5. Clicking okay brings up sequence of 5 total of the same boxes (the book file has 7 files in it including the TOC).
    6. After last of 5 "cannot quit" boxes, a new Framemaker one appears, that says "Unsaved Changes in file (book name) Save before closing?" Options are Yes, No and Cancel. Yes saves file and quite Frame. No quits Frame. Cancel leaves file open.
    I have reproduced this error multiple times with different books, using both the Save as PDF and Save Book As (PDF) commands.
    File--Print Book using Acrobat printer works fine (making sure to enable the acrobat setting so bookmarks are properly generated).
    Just frustrated that the first two options cause such an annoying error. Reported as a bug.

    Jaclyn,
    I've seen this happen when an API client attempts to close a document that doesn't exist, which defaults to closing the FrameMaker session, but the session cannot close because it's in the middle of some operation. It's normally the result of sloppy code. Do you have any third-party API plugin software running? For that matter, does anyone know if the "Save as PDF" uses an API client? If so, might be a bug in that software, although it seems that there must be something unique going on here to invoke this behavior in your case.

  • Delay in the opening the HFReports and books in PDF format on workspace

    Hi,
    When i am opening the financial reports in PDF format on workspace - it's taking long time.
    Please help me on this!!
    Thanks in Advance!!

    I think it is normal for books to take longer when they include multiple big size reports. I had a similar problem at a client. We ended up not including all the reports in one book and create several books instead. In another situation, we scheduled batches and the books ran automatically. This way, the users just received an email with the whole book in one pdf instead of running it on an ad-hoc basis and wait for the outcome.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Mehmet

  • Book from pdf

    How can I make a book of pdf files which consist of text and photos? When I tried to import them to iPhoto 5, they were refused. Is there a workaround?
    Milan

    Milan:
    There is a way to get a page of text into iPhoto. Open your word processor of choice and set the page up for landscape (works better than portrait). Then format the page as you want, text, margins (about 1 inch all around), and enter your text. Then print to PDF.
    Open the PDF file and do a Save As using the jpg format. Now you can import that jpg into iPhoto and use it in a book theme that has a full one picture per page layout. Here are two examples: Landscape and Portrait. You may have to tinker with the layout, font, etc. to make sure you get what you want.
    Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.

  • Change in report format after exporting from pdf format to excel format.

    Hi,
    I got a problem while exporting the pdf format of the Report to Excel format "Fully-Foramtted Grids and Texts".
    The format gets automatically changed.
    Is there any solution to this problem.

    Can you give some more details?
    Which version are you using (and which patch level - if any).
    Also what formatting is default on the reports and what is the default format in excel.
    What exactly is different between PDF and excel?
    Another possibility is that font substitution is going on??

  • How do I get books in .pdf format from my computer to ibooks?

    I have some large study guides on my computer that I'd like to add to ibooks to take with me on my iPad. How can I get them there? I can't seem to convince the sync program to find them.

    Ok, how do I get them to show up in my iTunes library to do that? It shows music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, apps and radio at present. I'm not sure how to get garden variety .pdfs  to show up in my library, to be able to drag them.
    the iPad device does show ibooks, along with the books that I downloaded from the ibooks/app store, but these that I want to add came from an educational website. A friend of mine told me he puts work articles and books into ibooks, and I'd like to do it, I'm just having trouble getting them there.  Thanks for your assistance, by the way.

  • I have a book in pdf format and its to big to convert to word I just want to convert one chapter how do I do this?.

    How do I convert one chapter from a pdf book to word

    Hi charleschavez,
    It sounds like you've bumped up against the 100 MB file size limit imposed by ExportPDF and Adobe PDF Pack. To extract pages from the PDF, you can use Acrobat (try it for free for 30 days, if you'd like!). Then you can even use Acrobat to export those pages to Word format by choosing File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
    Best,

  • Re-importing a lost book from pdf

    Hello.
    About 2 years ago the mover dropped my iMac and pooched my drive. After a new drive was installed I was able to recover all my photo's but never any of the projects (Calendars, Books etc.) Now I wish to reprint a book I made, but no longer have it. I do however have the PDF. Is it possible to import the pdf, as or into a book, and still have the text editable. Or am I making a new book, and typing everything out again?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you can't find someone who can print the pdf into a book you might try the following:
    1 - open the pdf file file and start a print job. I
    2 - n the Print window click on the PDF button.
    3 - select Save PDF to iPhoto option.
    This will make a 200 dpi jpg image of each page in the pdf file and import it into an iPhoto album. Immediately rename the pages by the Batch Change menu option to Page -1, Page -2, etc. so in case they get rearranged you can easily reorder them.
    Now create a new book and for each page select the layout that has a photo for the page background.
    Click to view full size
    Adding a jpg to each page will completely fill the page. It might work well enough.
    If you want to obtain 300 dpi jpgs of each pdf page download this Automator workflow, Save PDF to iPhoto 300 DPI.workflow, from Toad's Cellar and place it in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder. That will show up in the PDF menu I mentioned above. This might offer a littler better resolution for the printing. Then you can reorder from Apple. To avoid this in the future see Old Toad's Tutorial #9a - Archiving an iPhoto 7/8 Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date.
    If you have someone print the PDF file, like FedEx Kinkos, they may not be able to bind the book with hard covers. You'll just need to shop around.

    Can someone give me simple instructions on how to convert a PDF document (created from MS Word) into a flippable e-book i.e. with the transition that looks like a turning page?  Can it even be done in Acrobat XI Pro?

  • Save Book from PDF to Jpegs

    I'm sending books to a non-apple printer., and rather than PDF, they need jpegs of the spreads.
    I did this before by choosing Print > PDF > Save PDF to folder as Jpegs.
    One could doctor the automator scripts in PDF services to produce a 300 dpi Jpeg
    This does't seem to work under Snow Leopard
    Part of the automator sequence doesn't work.
    I get messages "The behaviour of this workflow may have changed....
    The workflow was saved with an older version of the action Rename Finder Items

  • Can I reorder a book from my order history?

    I ordered and received a book in 2004. Thereafter, my briefcase was stolen and my photos and photo book went with it. Some photos were not backed up. Is it possible to order the same book by accessing my order history or archive at .Mac?

  • IPhoto Printing Services from pdf format?

    I created a book in iPhoto 08 but it was deleted accidentally. I have Time Machine, but the the book under Project does not show up at all.
    Fortunately, i have printed out a pdf version. Can I send the pdf to Apple to order the printing of photo book? Thanks.

    a book is just a part of the iPhoto library - not something on its own in any way, just entries in the database that can be found or restored alone - so if you open TM in the dock and go back to when the book was there - select the iPhoto library and click restore (restore to the desktop so you do not overwrite your current library unless you want to totally go back to that library) and then depress the option key and launch iPhoto and select the restored library on the desktop - your book should be there
    Apple does not print form PDFs according to their documentation - you could ask them - http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/ordering_options/ - or use Google to look for other alternatives
