Photoshop :: Correcting Perspective On Book Page Scans Made With A DSLR

Sep 27, 2006

I am doing a project for school that requires me to "scan" some old books by shooting the pages with a DSLR-type camera. The setup is kind of like a poor-man's planetary scanner, but unlike a real PS, it doesn't have fancy proprietary software to "flatten out" the curves in the pages (near the binding and in the middle) that distort the text. Since part of my project involves processing the images with OCR into ebooks, I need the lines to be as straight as possible for accuracy's sake. I figure photoshop has GOT to be able to handle distortion correction like this, but I am clueless on how to do it. So far, I have tried to get close by cropping the pictures with a perspective correction, but the pages are still unreadable near the binding and in the middle.

Photoshop :: How To Remove Spine Showing On Scans Of Old Book

Mar 14, 2013

I'm currently working on a project that's about a book printed in 1631. This book contains some illustrations that are on a spread. Because the book is old and rather special, the scans of the spreads show the distinct spine. Is there a simple way in Photoshop to mask this issue?

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.

Photoshop :: Change Background Of A Page Of Book?

Jul 2, 2011

I scanned a page of a book that I have to re-print on a sheet of yellow, giving it the background color. The original page has a white background and thought I'd make it transparent (PNG) with the Magic Eraser. The Magic Eraser, however, ends up affecting even the text on the page making it unreadable and not the internal parts of the letters O, P, A, etc. are not reached by road and remain white. In short, the effect of the rubber is bad ... Is there a way in photoshop to remove the white background of the page making it transparent, without ruining the text?

Photoshop Elements :: Zooming On Page In Photo Book?

Jan 8, 2013

I'm using PSE10 and want to make photo books.  I have a book uploaded and have been putting photos in but my problem is the text.  If I use a smaller text to tell a story on the page (ie: size 9-11), it is so small on my screen that I cannot see what I'm typing.  I want to zoom in on certain sections of the page so I can see what I'm typing and make necessary corrections etc. When I try to use the 'set zoom percentage' it zooms in on the center of the page and I cannot figure out how to scroll so that I can see the top or bottom part of the page in the zoomed in state.

Lightroom :: Adding Book Page Numbers In 4?

Mar 17, 2012

I have designed and printed a BLURB book in LR4 beta successfully. Although the color was somewhat streaked and blotchy, it wasn't a bad effort, but it does need refinements. How I might add page numbers? Without page numbering, making a book greater than a few pages is not really acceptable.

Lightroom :: Page Numbering In LR4 / Book Module

Jun 24, 2012

Did Adobe really miss out on an absolutely fundamental requirement in the book module?   I finished my book, went to add page numbers to do the location index, but can't find anything that would automate it.  Do I really have to fat finger page numbers?   If so you've got to be kidding.   Books require page numbering.   How could they be so ridiculous as to miss this important function? I'll see if I can take the time to rebuild the book in Blurb's bookify.

Lightroom :: Page Shift When Book Published To Blurb?

Jun 7, 2012

I've just published my first book on Blurb. Looks great but all the pages are offset by one in Blurb when compared to my LR original. So all the pages that are on the left in Lightroom are on the right in the Blurb version. I can easily add another page and re-publish but it un-nerves me when things are inconsistent.

Lightroom :: Custom Page Sizes In The Book Module?

Sep 2, 2013

and for all of us thousands of users who DO NOT LIVE in the United States to be able to use our own photo-book vendors (who the hell is Blurb anyway?), and for you to give us a SIMPLE ability to be able to define custom page sizes.
 
But no, we have to go through five versions of lightroom, and STILL NOT have this really simple feature which would make the lives of literally thousands of hard working photographers easier.
 
Adobe, and all you wonderful people who made this marvellous piece of software, realise this: there exist many, many, many people who have bought your software -- who have no idea what Blurb is, and have no inclination of using it. enable custom page sizes so that we may use local vendors -- who have thoughtfully set page sizes that do not match the inbuilt ones.

InDesign :: Auto Numbering In Contents Page Of A Book

Apr 23, 2014

I'm making a research report on landscape design. The final document would have perhaps pages like 80-90 or so. Earlier I used to make reports and multipage documents on MS Word. While making the contents page, I would have to look at each and every chapter's name, subheading and then add the page number manually. Is there any automatic system in InDesign?
 
For example if the information about
 
"Sustainable water management "
 
is given on page number 63. Then Indesign automatically assigns the page 63 in front of the heading "Sustainable water management " in the contents page?

Lightroom :: 4 Book Module - Are There Zoom Levels Between Full Page And 1:1

Jun 8, 2012

I haven't been able to find any zoom levels between full-page view and the Ctrl-U zoom that seems to be 1:1.  At full page, 12 point text is very difficult to read and edit and anything smaller is impossible.  At the Ctrl-U zoom level, I get about 40 characters of 12 point text across the screen & proofreading & editing a text box is very time consuming.

Lightroom :: Text On Some Page Templates Is Rotated Incorrectly In Book Module

Oct 3, 2012

This is probably very easy, but I cant figure it out.  Whenever I try to type text on the spine of my lightroom book, Lightroom puts it horizontally. I like to rotate the text on the spine of my book by 90 degrees so that it reads from top to bottom, like on any normal book.  How do I do that?

By the way, when I start a new book, the spine text appears correctly by default  (rotated by 90 degrees). In my existing book, the text cursor appears only for horizontal flow however, despite using the same design template.  Is this a bug or did I accidently change the orientation of the text?
