Creativity on the Move: Keynote 06 (Printing)

Hello and welcome to using your iPad or iPad for scrapbooking and memory-keeping! Today, how to get your completed pages off the screen and into your albums. You can ...

• print directly from your iPhone or iPad (3rd generation or later) if your printer is AirPrint-enabled
• save your scrapbooking layouts as png files for uploading to your blog, emailing to friends and family, or printing in sizes suitable for pocket memory-keeping, like Project Life
• save your pages as high resolution/quality pdfs and email them to yourself so you can print from your computer using the inbuilt software Preview, or take them into Photoshop/Elements and print from there

The pages below are crisp and clear: the 10" x 8" is a pdf printed via my computer, and the 6" x 4" is printed directly from the iPad onto a 6" x 4" piece of photographic paper. And, of course, with Photoshop, Lightroom, or any other photo-editing program, you can resize to suit your needs ...
 

The pdfs for today contain detailed information ...


... and you'll find them just below, along with all previous pdfs, Keynote files and links to the blog posts in which they appear. Hoping they will be useful to you - if not now, then perhaps once you've been gifted with an iPhone or iPad :).

Printing--the proof of the pudding, I think. Too many of my images, pages, etc., are present only in the file structure of my computer. My biggest problem with printing is that our printers don't necessarily match what I see on my computer screen. The whole camera--computer--photo editor--printer continuum is confusing to me. I keep promising myself that I will devote sufficient time and attention to this to get it fixed, but I haven't yet made that happen.

The good news--I am able to print from my iPad to one of the printers we have. I think the problem with the one I prefer to use is that it's not on our network. Dropbox to the rescue on that score.

Oh thank you for this dedication and inspiration Alexa! Much appreciated - I passed on the link to your blog to a couple of friends who are looking at what they can do on their ipads.
