Printing overview

You can use Aperture to print single photos, contact sheets, webpages, books, and photos
selected in the Light Table, as well as create PDF files that you can send others for review.
Aperture also offers a variety of printing options, including using a standard, roll, or custom paper
size and assigning a specific ColorSync profile.

The easiest way to print photos is to use one of the Aperture print presets in the Print dialog.
Print presets are groups of commonly used print settings that allow you to print your photos
without having to select multiple print options individually. If the preconfigured presets don’t
meet your needs, you can create your own. For example, if you regularly print both 8-by-10-inch
and 11-by-14-inch photographs, you can create a print preset for each of those paper sizes. You
can also create print presets to match the print characteristics of different printers.
