Easy Portrait Package Printing for Aperture
 
Package Deal
Design Notes
This is our third in a series of book layout plug-ins designed to work seamlessly with Aperture, the professional photography workflow application for Mac OS X.  This design features 25 page layouts with drop-in areas for the most popular frame sizes including 8x10, 5x7, and 4x6 inch photographs as well as wallet sized photos.
Each page layout arranges photographs in popular sizes in a way that minimizes paper waste.  Although technically, you could order a printed hardcover book from this design, its express purpose is to facilitate printing to desktop inkjet printers to produce print packages for portrait photographers.  Or just to minimize paper waste for anyone who wants to print some 5x7 inch prints!
Because the picture elements for each page are pre-sized to exact dimensions, you no longer need to produce multiple master images within Aperture for each of your 4x6, 5x7, and 8x10 inch prints.  Just simply drag the same version to each of the picture boxes, print the book pages on your desktop inkjet, trim, and deliver.
