Advice needed re: good impression software edition

I am currently working on a coffee Table book which involves more than 1,000 photos and text.  I find that the work is not ideal for this type of project and I would like some feedback about the best Creative Suites software application.  I remember using Quark and Pagemaker over ten years ago and I don't remember being happy.  I enjoyed programs have evolved considerably since that time.

Whereas the purpose of publication, I would be better with Indesign CS5, CS5 Deisgn Premium... or something else that I might not know?  Thanks in advance for your time and your consideration.

The tool you want Adobe's InDesign CS5.

You can buy InDesign in a number of ways, including standalone, or in a package. One of these packages is Design Standard, which includes PhotoShop, Illustrator and Acrobat. It is probably the right choice for a print design, because you often need to manipulate images and InDesign is good for them say and the integration of text, but not to change.

Another package is Design Premium, which includes everything what in Deisng Standard and a number of tools to make web development. It is probably not worth the money unless you are producing an output for the web.

And Yes, these are advanced tools and the learning curve can be steep. So, it would not be the best use of your resources.

  • Advice needed on scanning and organization of large amounts of family photos

    I have about 4000 photos, I need to digitize and organize, and would appreciate information on the experiences of people with similar projects - specifically what scanners and software editing/organization work well (or not) and why. I am interested in scanning experience, naming, entering in the metadata tags / and storage on an external drive (or drive possible cloud) as effective as possible. I have a MacBook Pro towards 2012, running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6, processor 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDr2 memory

    I waited for someone to answer, but no luck so far.

    I think that, maybe, the question is too broad, but you hit on a lot of issues that I tried to respond in support of my own digitization projects. These are essentially old photos and family concert tickets, I've gathered that I want to geocode instead and add an event date to sort the pictures correctly in my reader, I now use pictures all to also store the main images in the form of files in folders.

    One of the first things that you need to consider what is my final use, how will be I be display these carelessly or what their final destination, that is to say: the screen or print. Next, you will need to examine and decide what are your basic quality standards.  Is it an archiving project where you might want to get the maximum resolution to capture your images or you are looking for very high resolution - pixel specific pick - and go deep with it.  What types of files you save; jpg or RAW or another.

    Don't forget the file type is like a box and the picture is in the box, you can have the same image quality in each type of file and each has positive points and negatives, jpgs are the most common, can display high-quality, but at the root with loss.

    It is to you and how you want to store, manage and share.  You could take a sweeping super high ground - better as your scanner may take - and a large jpg copy for sharing, etc.

    Depending on how you answer the above, in terms of desired scan quality, will affect what kind of scanner that you buy. I used several descent average range flat scanners, a versatile case and a wand at a crossing through of dock that I just got.

    I decided quite a while that I'm not in the business of archive I'm in enjoy it there and share business. IF they look good in an email or on Facebook or on my big screen as screensaver, even for the large TV. Then, I have what I need. It is for me. Others feel differently. For me in the end, it's the time it took to take a sweeping super high quality in order to get an image, which overwhelms my screen and has a huge file size. You have to play and see what works for you.

    I just got this scanner wand 1200 dpi with a dock charger and it quickly arranged a pile of concert tickets at its highest quality of scanning. I was happy with the initial results and I can't wait to make some pictures.

    There are a lot of details, you can enter each of these topics, but here you say basically software that controls the scanner. On a flat bed I hope you can scan several small images at once by selecting them in the program. You select the output resolution, file type, and can perform a variety of other adjustments to the image, which some will be dictated by the source.  As the digitization of old photos 'black and white' in color.

    You will need to consider certain issues of workflow here, the scanner software will generally look to create file names to sequential access to what you are scanning. If it's a large image at a time, you can name each or there may wish to work through a lot of dimensions and similar features and then mess with the baptism and the meta data later.  You will find what works best for you as enter you.

    You have now all these files. For me, it was ticket_1 - 90.jpg who had to have their date, time and locations adjusted. I've been messing around with photos of geocoding for years and so far my favorite geogocder and meta-data tool is called photolinker http://www.earlyinnovations.com/photolinker/ that I started using it because I was using a geo - stay with my regular camera and I wanted to match the Geo-trail of the recorder for pictures and this tool does that very well , with tools for helpsync the time of the image and geolog times. or you can give it an address or a city or a block and he will score as many images you select. It will give them a geocode latitude and longitude (altitude in some cases) as well as the metadata for the region city of the State, etc.

    It also gives you quick access to metadata, including tiles, descriptions, keywords, etc. and I do as well of this titration and marking here as I can. as well as the geocoding.  Dates are a very special case that I will come back soon.

    So analysis stuff you give a whole bunch of files and you need to decide how you want to sort and store them. My family photos I usually sort in events and it is pretty easy because the images were of particular type of event and then something holidays. So I in my folder of photos folders called things like:

    1909 - Granma baby pictures

    1931_12_25-moms first Christmas.

    1952_07_21-dad comes from the service.

    etc with this kind of naming structure. months of the year and day, if I know that it and the event.

    The photos then if there are few have specific names for files. If it is more like '1986_07-Florida_ #1-72' and let the meter. If I can be precise date in each event, I try to do, since we are talking about scans and no pictures of digital cameras, if the clock is set right and phones that capture this info.

    The deal with dates, as I mentioned earlier, can be a mess and I have found no real primer on how best to define and manage the dates on scanned images, but here is a part from what I understand. First of all remember that the dates of creation and modification in your finder associated with the file that contains the image, but not necessarily the image itself. Each image also has various sets of metadata that is stored with the images, called EXIFdata, this is where you find the geocoded and other data type keyword, you may be added, such as discussed above.

    As I said I have use pictures formerly iPhoto to see my images now and it does not always play nice with dates, but I think I understood now that it uses a date edit EXIF, to place images in the long scenario.

    Other non-traditional software I use for batch file renamed and full playback and editing of EXIF data are GraphicConverter 10 adata-and-more-on-your-mac/ https://www.lemkesoft.de/en/image-editing-slideshow-browser-batch-conversion-met

    This should be a lot of things to get started, I've always wanted to write that down and happy to now have at hand. Many men of straw - for people to start to sting to, assisting us on the tools and means better or different. I hope. I also hope that this help find you your first steps. Good luck.

  • Advice needed on the upgrade of the OS

    Hello. I have an Inspiron 5759 running win 10 Home 64 bit...

    I have an ISO of Windows 10 education of Dreamspark.

    I'm in two minds and would appreciate some advice.

    Firstly, I would like to completely reformat the hard drive and perform a clean install of win 10 Education. The downside is:

    • I don't know what Dell has put on the partitions, I would lose some features? For example, Dell diag equipment?

    • I need to reinstall a lot of software.

    But my instincts tell me that this is the best way to go. Is it possible to keep the extra Dell of programs on other partitions?

    The alternative to a clean install is an upgrade, has anyone done this? What is your vision, update own vs?

    T.I.A.

    ALI1EAR,

    You can install the ISO of the education of 10 Windows. You can keep the Dell Diagnostics partition and delete the rest. Yes, you need to reinstall the software in the system. Also, you need to reinstall all drivers for the hardware as well.

    You can also watch the 2 versions of Windows 10 in dual-boot. May be easier for you with this option.

    the Windows firewall and use theres rather...?

    I wonder!

    Hello

    It would be unwise to try to start without antivirus/antispyware are has just too many real threats and
    methods for malware to attack the system. If you attempt to do if of course you have redundant and
    current backups.

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
    Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

    Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    If, as you say, they are completely separate installations on separate hard disks, each with there own version of PS for example, there should be no way that they could interfere with each other! I assume you are using a form any of Boot Manager to load a specific version of Mac OS x?
