Printing a Series of Images

You can print multiple images at once, each on its own sheet of paper.

To print a series of images:

1

In the Browser, select the images you want to print.

For more information, see “

Navigating Through and Selecting Images

” on page 122.

2

Choose File > Print Images (or press Command-P).

3

In the Print dialog, select a single-image preset in the Preset Name list.

4

After you’ve verified that all the settings in the Print dialog are correct, click Print.

Your images are printed, one image per page.

Printing a Contact Sheet or Series of Contact Sheets

You can print contact sheets of your images, and Aperture does all the layout work for
you. All you have to do is select the number of pages or columns; Aperture adjusts the
size of the images based on your Layout Options settings.

To print contact sheets:

1

In the Browser, select the images you want to print.

2

Choose File > Print Images (or press Command-P).

3

In the Print dialog, specify the following settings:

 Select a contact sheet preset in the Preset Name list.
 Make sure the settings in the Printer Selection area are correct, such as paper size

and ColorSync profile.

 In the Layout Options area, specify the number of pages or the number of columns

and rows as a basis for laying out the contact sheets.

Aperture automatically adjusts the size of images based on your Layout Options
settings. The size of the images on the contact sheet is based on whether or not you
choose to constrain the images within a specific number of pages. The fewer pages
selected, the smaller the images. Similarly, if you specify the number of columns and
rows on the page, the more columns and rows, the smaller the images.

 Verify the layout of your contact sheet in the preview area.
 For printers incapable of printing full bleeds, select the “Show crop marks” checkbox

in the Border Options area.

4

After you’ve verified that all the settings in the Print dialog are correct, click Print.

Your contact sheet is printed.
