Making Adjustments to Images in a Book You can't select and use the Straighten, Crop, Spot & Patch, Retouch, and Red Eye tools in the tool strip when using the Book Layout Editor. To use these tools to make a change to an image in your book, select the image in the Browser, then click the Show Viewer button. The selected image appears in the Viewer and you can make your changes. Click the Show Viewer button again to return to the Book Layout Editor. Placing Images Automatically You can have Aperture automatically place your images in a book. It's a good idea to set up the page structure of your document first by creating the number of pages needed and assigning the master page layouts that you want. Then arrange your images in the Browser in the order in which they should appear in the book, and you can have Aperture flow the images into the structure you created. You can place all the unplaced images in your book at once, or you can select specific images and have Aperture flow them into any empty pages. For example, you might select several images and have Aperture flow them into the first several pages of your book, and then select several more images and have Aperture flow them into the following pages. If you prefer, you can have Aperture create as many pages as necessary to hold all your images and place them on the pages. Aperture creates new pages using master page designs from the selected theme and fills them with your images. You can then change the master page assignments if you wish. Chapter 21 Creating Books 583
