I wanted to share with you all a function that I just found in Apple Aperture 3.
It is their Book building function. How cool is this?!?!....
Super easy to use, I wish power point or keynote were this easy... And if you use either of those programs, you know those are anything but difficult, and thats my point!
Simply go to the menu and select book.
You will get some theme choices to select from, Hard Cover vs. Soft Cover. Xtra-Large all the way to Very Small
I ended up choosing "Medium" and the "Snapshot" theme.
After that.... you drag and drop photos from collections (called projects in Aperture but I am used to lightrooms vernacular), into the "Book". The photos are viewable in a window/film strip at the bottom of the screen. Then you just drag the photo on to the template place holder in the window above the film strip. To create your book.
Then fill in the text fields, add some more text fields if you want to.... Viola!
Here are screen shots of my final draft ... that I swear took longer to define which pictures I wanted to use than it did to create the book. In a few days I will have the book in my hands and I will be able to tell you what I think about the quality.
Thanks for looking, your comments are appreciated.
Later,
Duke
P.S. For more information....
