Create a photo book

To create a book, follow these steps:

Specify your default book-layout behaviors. In the Book module, choose Book > Book Preferences.

Default Photo Zoom

When photos are added to a cell, they can automatically zoom to fill, or zoom to fit. You can

override the preference by right-clicking (Windows) or Control-clicking (Mac OS) a photo in the preview area and
toggling Zoom Photo To Fill Cell on or off.

Start New Books By Autofilling

When you start a book, pages are automatically added using the current Auto

Layout preset and the photos that are in the Filmstrip.

Fill Text Boxes With

Layouts that include text boxes can automatically fill with the photo's Title, Caption or File

Name metadata.The option Filler Text displays placeholder text in the field to help you see whether the title, caption,
or file name metadata is missing.

Note: To see filler text, select the Filler Text option in the Guides panel.

Constrain Captions To Safe Text Area

Constrains photo and page caption fields to printable areas of the page. For

example, if you adjust the Page Caption Offset, Constrain Captions To Safe Text Area prevents you from accidentally
moving the caption outside the printable margins of the page.
