Use Aperture Book Create, however print elsewhere

Hi,
I love the aperture book design and am wanting to use this for my business however dont want to have to print with apple.
1) Can the design book template ive created be used elsewhere? (wedding album printers)?
2) If so, if they arent using aperture and say a [PC] are they able to print my book/album design?
Appreciate the help

yes.
use the "Print" book feature and at the Print window that pops up select "PDF" any printer should be able to print it.

    When I try to use American Greetings Card Create & Print it calls for installing a plug in from Mozilla, but when I try to instal that plug in I get a window saying it is not compatible with Mozilla or Firefox 4. How can I keep Firefox and also use American Greetings Create & Print ?

  • Using Aperture to create a slideshow why would it not include the captions when burnt to CD?

    I am trying to burn a slideshow to CD but when I do the captions I have included are not shown. Anyone got any ideas what I am doing wrong or not even doing? Any suggestions would be helpfully.

    I am trying to burn a slideshow to CD but when I do the captions I have included are not shown.
    How are you burning the Slideshow to CD? Are you using the "Export" button in the Slideshow view to render a video of the Slideshow, or are you exporting the images of the Slideshow using the "File > Export" command?

  • Can I still use Aperture to buy books

    Photos does not seem to have any editing tools of note for creating Books like Aperture. If I use Aperture to create a book can I still buy one or must I use only Photos now?

    I have used iWeb without MobileMe for several years now. I use wordpress for my blog which i perfer to iWeb's blog if for no other reason than it can be updated via the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad when on the go.
    You can continue to use iWeb to create & maintain website however, you will need to find a 3rd party webhost for your website, I have been using IX Webhosting for several years now with little to no problems "usually the problem was something I did" and they have been quick to solve any issue I have come across.

  • Creating pdf contact sheets at screen resolution using aperture/photoshop

    Can anyone advise me on how to create a pdf document of contact sheets- low resolution [72 screen res]that is less time consuming than the present work flow described below?
    At present I export jpegs 450pxl 72dpi from aperture. create contact sheets in photoshop and then
    create a pdf in photoshop. Average number of images per client is approx 800-1000,
    The pdf I have created with aperture has a resolutuin of 300dpi- which is a large file to email etc. I have tried reimporting the 450pxl jpegs but aperture still creates the document at 300dpi.
    Is it possible ...
    1/. to solely use aperture to create low res pdf's
    2/. If not is it possible to create an action in photoshop [or use automator] to speed up the process described above?
    I do have a little experience using actions in photoshop but am by no means an experienced user.

    Awesome! I didnt even know aperture could do that
    Now another quick question on this topic, if im using RAW files, does aperture need to convert the file to jpeg or tiff (like it does if you export version as jpeg)?
    If it does, that may be a problem as it takes forever for aperture on my macbook to convert raws and save as jpegs, like a good minute or two per photo, and if i have 200odd photos....not good, people will crack it waiting and leave.
    Or does it print as raw? Cause im pretty sure my printer (or any printer) can not print raw files. Will try it tonight on my printer but a heads up will be useful.
    I could just shoot in hi-res jpeg, but id rather shoot raw incase they want a large poster size print etc.
    Thanks.

  • Aperture books: raw images

    I want to create a book using Aperture and have Apple print it. My photos are a mix of raw and jpeg. Do I ned to invert the edited Raw photos to jpeg to be able to order the book?

    Just don't forget to preview the book as described here:
    iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
    Check, if you are happy with the way the RAWs have been developed, and keep the pdf file  of the preview, until you'll receive the printed copy.

  • Aperture book copyright question!

    Hey...I was wondering if it would be allowed to make Aperture books and resell them....obviously if I do not own the copyright then I a cannot...but let's say I take a bunch of pics of my hometown and make a book and ask Apple for copies of this book...would I be allowed to sell it then?

    Your images, your work, your creation -> your copyright. Aperture is just a tool and the printing service is just a service. If you write a novel using Microsoft Word, you still own the copyright and Microsoft has no rights over your work, no matter how many fancy fonts and formatting features you use. Aperture is no different.
    I'm sure Apple would love you to sell as many copies as you can - especially if you are using their printing service. At worst, they sell more printing services to you as you buy more books. At best, your customers are so impressed that they use Aperture or iPhoto to print books themselves, and Apple sells lots more books.

  • Iphoto 08 vs aperture book templates

    I too wanted to use the new book template from iphoto 08... But I can't get this accomplished... There should be an easy way to import / export (depending on which program) to use the new book templates from iphoto 08 into Aperture. This release of iphoto 08 without acknowleging us Aperture users is in my view a horrible mistake and the Apple executives should be embarrassed.

    One problem I am having is that if you browse the Aperture library using iPhoto 08 you can certainly import the previews but they are in fact not large enough/high quality enough to use for book or calendar printing. I use high qual previews in Aperture (9 out of 10) at large sizes and I still get the exclamation point when I import into iPhoto -- the only way I can get it to work properly is to export to the desktop the full-size versions, then import those into iPhoto. Not excatly seamless! Am I missing something that will make this work better? I mean, what is the point of sharing Previews if the Previews won't work well enough for printing?

  • Is it possible to use Aperture to make a new image from two existing ones--ie, in a new jpg? I essentially want to create a collage that I can then print as a single image, rather than in a book. Any advice will be most welcome!

    The main point is that Aperture is used to make digital negatives as good as they can be (for the uses you define), but it does not ADD date to your digital negatives, nor does it produce NEW combination files.  For those tasks you need a Graphics program.

  • How to save a book created in Aperture 3 for future uploading for printing?

    How to you save a book created in Apeture 3 to send for printing several months after creating book.  I've create several books, had them printed and get request for reprints.  I don't want to keep the photo files in Aperture for space considerations.

    If you are printing through Apple then you have to send the order using Aperture. You could export the book as a new library and archive that to save space in the original library. Keep im mind that exporting this way will not remove the originals from the Aperture library, you will need to remove those yourself.
    If you are not using Apple to print the book you would need to save whatever it was (pdf file?) that you sent to be printed the first time.

  • Using Aperture, I printed a large hardcover book.  Upon delivery, I found a gross error in wording on the cover.  Is there a way to get the cover only reprinted?

    Using Aperture, I printed a large hardcover book.  Upon delivery, there was a spelling error on the cover  of the books.  Is it possible to get just the cover of the books reprinted correctly?

    No.  If Aperture works similar to iPhoto as far a creating PDFs of the book you can create a pdf of the book and using it find a printer like Kinkos that could print a new cover. The PDF file that gets created by Control-clicking the background in the book mode will create the correct type of pdf file for this:
    Click to view full size
    In iPhoto the PDF that gets created when you try to print the book and select PDF ➙ Save as PDF creates the wrong format for what you want.  If you have trouble creating that PDF file ask over in the Aperture forum.

  • I want to use Apple print to print a square book - using Aperture.  How?

    I want to use Apple print to print a SQUARE format book - using Aperture.  How?

    I want to use Apple print to print a SQUARE format book - using Aperture.  How?
    Not with Aperture. You have to use the new Photos for Mac, if you want to print a square book with Apple's Print services.
    You could collect  the images you want in the book in an album, export the albums a s a new Aperture library, open the album Photos, and create your book.
    Or create a custom book in aperture, print the pages of the book to JPEG, import the jpegs to Photos and use them as full page photos to create a photo book in Photos.

  • Sending Aperture-created books to other printing services

    Has anyone attempted to take a book created with the Aperture book tool and have it printed by alternative printing services like Asuka or Kodak? Can it be done, and if so, what is the process for doing it?
    Thanks,
    Brad

    SharedInk will accept Aperture books for printing. Just upload the pdf just as you would an iPhoto pdf book. At the end of the upload you get an error indicating the pdf is the wrong kind (i.e. an Aperture file as opposed to an iPhoto file). Then you just contact their support people and they move the file along for you to a point where you can view it online at their site and place your order. Works for me.

  • I am creating an aperture book from my photos. How do I change the default map provided in the theme to one of my choice e.g. satellite view?

    I am creating an aperture book from my photos. How do I change the default map provided in the theme to one of my choice e.g. satellite view?

    Kyle,
    Thanks for your response. To be clear, the way I am importing the PDF is by going to New in LiveCycle, and selecting Import a PDF document, and selecting Create and Interactive Form with Fixed Pages.
    I cannot change the forms or pages, as they are created by our local Board. In otherwords, I have tryed used the flowable content, and upon import, not only are the fonts slightly different, but all the important artwork (trade-related) is gone, and is not in the exact positions it was in. The forms must meet the standards to which they were approved by the regional board, and there are state-mandated forms as well.
    What surprises me is that you say this method of Fixed Content isn't used much any more. I would think that a lot of people would have PDF files they would wish to make into fillable, interactive forms without needing to reconstruct the entire document. Perhaps a company that has always done things on paper, and now wishes to use those exact same forms on the computer, with no deviations to looks so they can be printed and match up perfectly.
    I thought about using Acrobat's internal form creation system. However, some of these forms have sophisticated options and the calculation scripts and systems within LiveCycle are very useful. Not to mention that it has a much larger scalability, should we chose to utilize it.
    Any other suggestions? I am so confused why Adobe would force medium-quality import of a PDF, but be so incredibly flexible about every other option in their program.

  • Icc profiles for aperture book printing...

    Do the Aperture Book Printing folks provide icc profiles so I can soft-proof the images beforehand?

    Please note that monitors provide fairly accurate color when the images are saved in an sRGB color space, however, presses are not as reliable...
    Well, Mike, thanks for sharing the info here.
    At one point, in Mark's email to you, as mentioned above in his email from Apple, I have to say I am a little surprised about his statement re: monitors provide fairly accurate... when the images saved in an sRGB colour space...
    It is very tricky statement where it depends on how we define the term "fairly accurate" in monitors. What we don't know if Mark meant by when monitor has been "properly" set up as profiled and calibrated with high-grade calibration hardware. Unless IF the monitor has been proper profiled and calibrated, then his statement would be correct. But IF not profiled or calibrated at all, I am afraid that his statement is incorrect.
    Now these days with newer monitors and newer Apple laptops with better monitor technology, it is still need to be properly profiled and calibrated. It just depends on individual's preference, desire and the purpose of such project whatever someone is working on. While majority of Aperture users' are probably mostly professional photographers or those who are into photography savvy, then colour-managed workflow is a norm. For me, it IS absolute A MUST colour-managed workflow.
    Although, I do a heavy post-production workflow on MacPro where I always have my monitors calibrated. I don't typically calibrate my laptop, though. Because sometimes I forgot to turn off the automatic ambient light in System Preference in Display section. It is a little inconvenience in that case. Unless if I am being away on photographic trips far from Canada abroad, then it is a different story. But not always bring my calibration device with me. Too inconvenience to haul it around at the airports etc. So colour-managed workflow is a must with MacPro in my studio.
    However, other individuals have their own preference, comfort zone and the purpose of such project. Perhaps their workflow set up differently than yours or mine, that is ok.
    But in that email you received from someone at Apple didn't make it clear about that statement about 'fairly accuracy'.
    Then something else is something else actually--when Apple guy said presses are not always.... Again, that is why it is important that you get monitor properly profiled and calibrated. Once it is done properly, then it is all good. But remember, you need to re-calibrate monitor once a week or every two weeks or once month. In order to get pretty close to printed output, always a good idea to soft proof. If needed to make slightly conservative adjustments to your satisfaction or level of expectation, the output would be fairly close to what it is appeared in monitor. When I mean "fairly close" in comparing the output to what you are seeing in monitor with these post-production images used in that output, in fairness, I would estimate fairly close in terms of anywhere in range between 92 to 95 percent - that is very fair conservative perspective on how close in the output vs monitor. It is truly, really, truly rare to get the output 100% as obvious and precise as you are seeing in monitor. If that is the case, and if that is true FOR that person achieved this, this probably means takes that person many years to perfect his/her colour-managed workflow for that matter. Never has been that pretty close, but I'd be shocked if I see mine aced right on spot. I'd be lying to you if I get all output perfect as appeared in my monitors. If I did, that would be incorrect statement.
    It seems a lot of factors and things to do and things need to require in a thoroughly colour-managed workflow production, it is how it is done. But this can also means save money, effort and time if done properly right from the beginning.
    In fairness, I would really wish that guy from Apple should have said a little more obvious and precise with his definition of fairly accuracy with monitors. It doesn't says what kind of monitors he refers to. Low quality, cheap monitors deliver good results? Lot of factors need to be looked at for consideration for yourself.
    Of course, as you can tell that colour management topic is pretty heavy, highly technical and everything in deep thinking with world of colours. It takes years for an individual (both pros and non-pro individuals) finally understand what it is all about. Again, technologies evolve rapid for the better in many cases for new monitors, commercial print equips, advanced ink technology, advanced paper production technology... That goes on effortless endless, actually.
    Hope some of thoughtfu perspective and experience be of some interest, and it is obvious that this discussion probably will attract some more excitement discussion, the more the better. So that every other Aperture users who have the similar issues, they'll definitely want to come to here... And learn and share.
    I also use Blurb too. They are getting better than it was once a couple years ago when Blurb first started. As they add more variety of book sizes, types of paper stock and things like that. This also give someone some flexibility in choosing workflow production using Blurb software or online bookmaking or using PDF to Book service for those who are advanced users that use InDesign layout design app. In that case of PDF to Book, the advanced users would need to download Blurb's preset plug-in to put in InDesign in order to export the PDF output to meet and integrate into Blurb's Preflight Checklist at the time of upload. I use PDF to Book service with InDesign, etc. It is fairly self explanatory and easy to follow steps. Also slightly off topic, but when making Blurb book, to get most out of their product and service with Blurb, in that case, they came up with brilliant resource called Colour Resource Centre designed for making more beautiful books. In that resource centre, it is easy to read and follow.
    I would think this probably shed some insights and understanding the basics of colour management, the whole thing all about this, that and the other all together.
    I would also want other high-powered hard-core Aperture users share their experience with Aperture Book printing service. I'd be happy to share my experience about making Aperture Book vs. Blurb Book through PDF to Book service. However, I would think the export to PDF from Aperture probably has it's own different setting or slightly different configuration inside the PDF engine on Mac for Blurb book. There has been some discussion about wanting a Aperture Plug In for Blurb Book. blurb has been quiet on it, I take that they probably will not develop a special plug-in for Aperture Users. Sorry if it is a little off topic. But somehow someone in the discussion mention Blurb. so...
    Anyhow, hope that helps.
