Updating Book Pages with Master Page Changes

After you change a master page, the modified design can be applied to pages in your
book. Aperture does not automatically update the design of pages whose master
pages are modified later. However, you can choose to update the pages in a book with
revised master page designs.

To update a page with a changed master page design:

1

In the Pages panel, select the page whose master page design you want to update.

2

Choose Reapply Master from the Book Action pop-up menu.

Aperture applies the current master page design to the selected page.

Copying a Book Album

After you’ve set up a book structure that you like, you can reuse it for other projects. For
example, you might create a wedding album book structure that you reuse frequently.

You can select and duplicate a book album. You can then remove the images from the
album and replace them with others to fill the new book. Aperture can automatically
flow the new images into the duplicated book structure.

To copy a book album and place new images in it:

1

Select the book album in the Projects panel.

2

Choose File > Duplicate Book.

3

Drag the duplicate book album to a new project, if you wish.

4

With the duplicate book album selected in the Projects Panel, select an image in the
Browser and choose Edit > Select All (or press Command-A).

5

To remove the images from the album, choose Images > Remove From Album
(or press Delete).

All the images are removed from the Browser and the book pages.

6

Select the project that has the images you want to place in the book.

7

Select the images and drag them to the duplicate book album in the Projects panel.

8

Select the duplicate book album in the Projects panel.

9

Arrange the images in the Browser in the order you want them to appear in your book.

The images are automatically placed in the book pages.
