Lightroom :: How To Add Photos From Another Collection To Saved Book

Apr 12, 2012

In my lightroom library I have created a collection set called "Wedding". As I have 1000 photos from my wedding, within this Collection Set I have created 10 or more Collections to organise these photos (Ceremony, Reception, First Dance, etc.).
 
I have created a new 'Book' which as expected, has created a new Collection within my 'Wedding' collection set.
 
When I first create the book (before saving it) it seems like I can click on a page, then browse my Collections and add the photo that I desire to the page.
 
After I have saved the book, I can't so this. I want to work on my book later, and use my existing organisation of photos, and add photos to my books from these collections.
 
I know I am missing something basic (I am new to lightroom). I don't understand why I can't add a photo to my book after I have saved it. Each time I click on one of my other collections, a new unsaved book appears in the main project window.
 
I have worked out that if I copy all my wedding photos into the new "Book" collection, then my photos are available for use - but this defeats the purpose of organising my photos into separate collections, and it doesn't seem like you can create a sub-collection within the Book project.

Lightroom :: Add Images From Collection After The Book Is Saved?

Nov 13, 2013

I prepared a rough draft of a book and saved it with the tab on the right hand top of the main screen. Unfortunately, I saved it with the option of only saving the used images from the original collection. Later I brought up the draft book and tried to add some additional images, but see that only the images already used in the book are available on the image strip at the bottom.  I need to get other images which are in the original collection.  Is there any way to do this?  If not, is there a way to save the entire format of the book and then start over with the same format but with the original full collection as the source of images in the bottom strip?

Lightroom :: Adding Images Into A Book Collection

Apr 9, 2013

I am producing a book via lightrom. Just about completed it and hit save. The problem is that when I did this only my currently selected images in the film strip were included in the book collection (files starred 2 and above) and I cant work out how to make all f the files in my route folder (unstarred, etc) appear in the collection.
 
I had been building the book from a folder on my E drive, not a collection.

Lightroom :: 4 - Migrating Existing Photo Collection From IView Media Pro

Feb 11, 2014

I am in the process of migrating my from iView Media Pro to LR 4, with about 15K photos. In iVMP, I created CSV files containing the names of the Collections and Keywords (using LR lingo) associated with each photo. I am now trying to find a way to import that data into LR. I have tried LR/Transporter, but it is not working properly.
 
I have done a lot of searching on the topic of migrating to LR from a different cataloging application and am amazed at the dearth of information I have found.
 
Any LR plugins that import metadata from CSV files? Even if LR/Transporter were working as described, I can't import the Collection names and keywords directly into their respective LR fields. Getting 15K photos into the same Collection Set/Collection hierarchy that I have in iVMP looks like it is going to be A LOT manual work. Are there no tools to make this process more automated?
 
Any resources for setting up LR with an existing photo collection (like a batch process for creating the empty Collection Sets and Collections), I would love to know about it.

Lightroom :: Photo Not Added To Quick Collection When Marker Clicked?

Sep 20, 2013

Recently I have not been able to add photos to a quick collection when the marker is clicked. The marker fills in, but the photo does not appear in the quick collection. At the same time this problem occured, I could not remove photos from the quick collection that had been previously added. I had to remove those photos using the menu system. I upgraded to the new release of Lightroom 5 yesterday thinking that would solve the problem. I still have the problem so I am wondering if it is a setting I have missed. The quick collection marker button is checked in the view options and the button does appear and change when clicked... The photo thumbnail is just not added to the quick collection.

Lightroom :: Photo Size On Book Cover

Oct 14, 2012

I've created a collage to place on the front cover of my book. It is a JPG file about 6700 pixels wide and 768 px high. When I drop it onto the front cover, it shows only a small fraction of the photo and there is no way to "shrink" the photo.
 
How can I display the entire 6700 x 768 px photo on the cover of my book?

Lightroom :: 4 - Adding Text On Top Of Photo In Book Module

Mar 30, 2012

Other than the cover template, there doesn't seem to be any page template that allows you to put type directly over a photo -- which can be a useful graphic technique.  I know I could do it in Photoshop, and import it into Lightroom, but that wouldn't allow for easy chages in text type or color, etc. and would be an interruption of the book module's workflow.  It would be nice to be able to add a text box to a page.  Can it now be done and I just haven't found the way?

Lightroom :: Filmstrip In Book Module - Photo Info

Jul 18, 2012

As I review photos clicking on their thumbnails in the book module's film strip on the bottom of the screen I can't seem to find a way to have (1) the name of the photo file displayed and (2) the name of folder where the photo file resides.
 
In Bridge one has the option to have up to 4 lines of customer-selected information displayed below each thumbnail.
 
Is there a way do do something similar in Lightroom 4.1 ? How can I view the file name and the name of the folder where it resides as I select the image in the film strip ?

Lightroom :: Will Empty Photo Cells In Book Module Print

Nov 9, 2013

A simple question. I'm designing a book in lightroom now and some places I decided to put some text over a photo cell rather than a photo. Will it print the text over the photo cell, or doesn't it print the photo cell?

Lightroom :: How To Import Files From Photo Collection In A Folder And Subfolders On Network Attached Storage (NAS) Unit

May 14, 2012

Have just installed Windows LR4 trial, told it to Import files from my photo collection in a folder + subfolders on a network attached storage (NAS) unit. Windows Explorer tells me that there are 10,308 files in 408 folders in the main folder, totalling 38.8gb but on scanning the folder prior to import LR4 tells me that there are only 9,612 photos.
 
My photo collection folder contains only photos and no other file types.
 
Why is there this discrepancy ? I've searched around to see whether there is some hidden filter that is excluding certain photo files but cannot find anything of that nature.

Lightroom :: Smart Collection - Can Source Be Named Collection Set?

Jun 25, 2013

If I specify a smart collection rule that says the source must be a collection matching some pattern, does this only apply to actual collections and exclude collection sets?

I was hoping fo a way to build a rule based on the collection set ... is this possible?

I also tried matching Any Searchable Text set to the collection set name, but that doesn't seem to work...wouldn't all photos in the collection set be associated with that string? Looks like no.
 
There used to be a way I thought that you could submit a new thread after doing a question search. That seems to be gone.

Is there a way to convert a collection to a smart collection?

I am using NextGEN to export images to WordPress. NextGEN created Publishing collections in Lightroom to match those in my WordPress blog. My problem is that they are not Smart Collections.

Lightroom :: Unnecessary Page Limit For Blurb Book In Book Module?

Feb 25, 2014

I am in the process of making a photobook using Lightroom and discovered when I reached page 240 that I couldn't add any additional pages, much to my surprise.  I was surprised because I knew from Blurb's website that the limit for standard paper is 440 pages and mistakenly assumed that this limit would also apply within Lightroom.  I did more research online and found many others being surprised by this limitation after spending hours and days on a photo book.  I will likely work around this by exporting from Lightroom to .jpg and uploading to Blurb, but that will take extra time and effort and reduces the appeal of using Lightroom to create a Blurb book.  I had also tried exporting from Lightroom to .pdf only to find that the .pdf format exported by Lightroom is not compatible with the requirements of Blurb.

Lightroom :: Why Does Book Not Upload To Blurb From 4.2 Book Module

Oct 29, 2012

I am trying to up load a 40 page 12" x 12" photo book to Blurb from the book module in Lightroom 4.2.  It renders the pages and then having rendered the cover gets stuck, about 50% to 60% through the process. None of the photographs are starred or colour coded. I have uploaded successfully from this iMac in the last few weeks.

Lightroom :: How To Get A Book From Collections To An Active Book

Feb 14, 2014

I purchased Lightroom 5 and am creating a photo book through Blurb.  I accidently erased 38 pages, so after I re-created them, I clicked on Create Saved Book, which put it in Collections.  Now I am trying to work on the book again, and can open it, but when I go to the Library of photos, Lightroom automatically repopulates a new book with all the photos in that file and won't let me put them in the book I saved.  How can I get this partially finished book so that I can use it?

Lightroom :: Ordering Of Collection Sets And Collections (inside Collection Sets)?

Jun 25, 2013

What are the rules for how elements (specifically, collections and other collection sets) are ordered within a collection set?
 
I was trying to get a collection to appear at the top of the list of items in a collection set, but it seems to get stuffed below all the other collection sets regardless of the name given to the collection.

Photoshop :: Making Elements Tags / Captions Embed In Photo Collection

Mar 23, 2012

I'm interested in using Photoshop Elements to tag and caption my 11000 photos with details of names and places, but can I commit the changes to the image files so that they are available outside the Elements environment? I don't want to spend a lot of effort and have tags/captions only available within Elements, I want to embed the details in my photo collection.

Photoshop Elements :: Put Text Into A Photo Book?

May 26, 2013

I am using Elements 11, and my first project is to make a photo book for a recent trip.  I have figured out importing the pictures and titles.  I want to include a 3000 word story on 3 or 4 pages.  I have spent hours trying to do this.  I thought I would be able to easily copy and paste from Word but that isn't working for me.  I have retyping the whole thing in "Your Text Here".  I can't seem to make it work.  Pane sizing is an issue.  Editing after I have typed several paragraphs.  I am about to give up.  I can't locate any tutorials etc on how to do this.  I bought Elements 11 for Dummys and they might as well have skipped photo books.  It was useless.

Loaded my  photos into an album. I am trying to create a photo book for Christmas and have started working with a company other than Shutterfly because of page design offerings ?  Can I upload an entire album to that company? I have tried and I am having difficulty.  Do these photos need to be uploaded to that company in folders or must I upload  individually or can I do the entire album at once? I am dealing with hundreds of photos.

Photoshop Elements :: Finding A Photo Book File

I am working on a photo book and it is not in the recently edited list anymore.  I found a folder with all the pages and pictures except for the title page.  How is a book identified (extender) so I can find it.  It also used to automatically know it was a book and load as such, but all my searches are in vain.

Photoshop Elements :: Printing Photo Book Project In 10?

Apr 30, 2012

I am wanting to create a book, for home printing, to cataloge the life of my new dog. It could therefore eventually contain a large number of pages and I will need to add pages as time goes by.

But I would also want to print pages as they are designed and add them to the binder on a regular basis. Problem is that I have been completely unable to find any option for printing selected pages.

The programme only seems to be capable of printing the whole project, which means that if I have 50 pages all of them will be printed once I hit the Print button. I have searched all of the print options, page set up otions etc. but cannot find anything that allows me to print, say, pages 25-30.
