There are many times that I send prints to a Noritsu 3111 printer that cannot read embedded color profiles, it simply will disregard this info. Can you tell me how the LR print module managed this profile when saving as a JPEG? Does it embed the profile or does it "convert to profile"?

The smaller pictures get a thin white edge around it. How can I fit the picture so the white edge doesn't show? Thanks from Chris I have a large picture with smaller pictures inside.

First make some rgb-black in photoshop to make black, grey backgrounds and put this in the collection for wedding albums and studio sessions. In each folder i have around 30 print presets with the tip of true/false, and each composition is for make a wedding album page, naming page1,page2, etc. hi, today i see the video and put my mac to work with this feature. make some folders with different print presets for each page of the future album with different compositions.

Make a full sized print of the backround for your first image and drag the rest from the second page onto the first. I put 8-5 x 7's on a 16 x 24 with no problems. If you have the dimensions for placement written down it's not a problem. You can't save the template with the backround but printing from LR is a joy and makes up for that hassle.

I print my prints externally in a Lab, using print to file in LR. I have to sign all prints digitally in the right bottom corner and know that I can use a image to do that, but is there any way to free rotate my signature? I only find 90/-90/180? Or do I have to do that in PS and then import a already rotated signature image? Hope you can help. Thanks and please keep up your great work. I also use this comment to say that you helped me saving many, many hours on your videaos on Kelby training - great stuff! Hello Matt,

I just downloaded it on a Mac and PC and it works fine. Maybe try checking if there's an update for Quicktime. Steve - There's probably a way with a custom Identity Plate but it's not going to be pretty or easy to work with. I'd suggest sticking with your program if it works.

Is there a way to use LR to mimic the old iCards? I like to send quick thank-you notes to my customers using one of the images that they ordered. I'm currently using a program called "postcard," but I'd love to find a way to do it within LR. And given the package ability together with the slick export functionality, I have to think that someone cleverer than myself has figured this out.
