[Ten rozdział nie został jeszcze przetłumaczony.]

You can process iPhoto photo book documents using iCalamus in all versions of iPhoto '08 and later. iCalamus usually ships with the Photographerbook plug-in, which offers a new rodzaj dokumentu called Photographerbook to the default documents. The photo book print service Photographerbook offers to print iPhoto books for a better price than Apple.

Here is how it works:

1. Launch iPhoto and choose your iPhoto book.
2. Ważne: Click with pressed [Ctrl] key into the gray area beside your book and choose Save Book as PDF then. If you would print to PDF instead, you would damage the iPhoto book cover and get unusuable PDF files.

   

3. Launch iCalamus.
4. Create a new document using the Photographerbook rodzaj dokumentu. Choose the Książka iPhoto format that you want from the various formats available. Choose the same number of pages as set up in your iPhoto book.

   

5. Now it's your choice either to create an empty new document or to use the PDF Import Assistant. In order to use the assistant, click the large button Assistant for PDF Import From iPhoto and Aperture below the product area. Afterwards you will see the PDF Import Assistant dialog:

   

   
   Follow the instructions of the assistant: Drag the PDF file created by iPhoto/Aperture to import, or click to choose a file. The assistant will then create the relevant document, which you can order now if you don't want to edit it.

   

6. If you have not used the assistant, you will now see a still empty book document. Drag the previously saved iPhoto/Aperture book PDF into the empty iCalamus document. The PDF will automatically be distributed into all pages and scaled properly.
7. Done!

Afterwards you may proceed to format the book document with the iCalamus tools, add elements or cover some content, or even use the artwork elements without the images.

When you are ready to order the book document, choose the menu item Order Document from the File menu.
