| Sharing Your Photos iPhoto really makes its mark with its photo sharing features. From ordering books to sending photos via email, iPhoto makes sharing your photos a snap.
Selecting Images to Work With : The first step to using any of these tools is to select the images that you want to work with.
Print : Using a color printer, iPhoto allows you to print your photos in various formats and paper types. iPhoto can print single i
Select Printer : Make sure that your printer is listed in the Printer Menu, in the Print Panel. In the above example, the printer that will be used is a Deskjet 880C (that is the printer that is hooked up to my computer). If your printer is not the printer listed, click on the Printer Menu and select your printer from the list. Presets : The presets menu (image right) allows you to select the paper type to be used and the quality of the print. Your prints will look best if you can match the type of paper that you are using, with the proper setting. You will notice that you can print in a normal mode or a Fine mode. The Fine mode will produce the best prints (but also use the most ink). Style : The Style Menu (below) allows you to select the type of print you want. The four choices are Contact Sheet, Full Page, Greeting Card and Standard Prints.
Full Page (image 1 above) : The Full Page setting will print your photo on a standard 8.5 x 11 paper with a small border. If you would like a larger border, move the border slider from 0 to 1 inch (or type in a specific border size). You can also select the number of copies you would like to print. Greeting Card (image 2 above): Selecting Greeting Card will format your image to be printed as single or double fold greeting card. This can be done on plain paper or special greeting card paper. Contact Sheet (image 3 above): A contact sheet will print a series of thumbnails, or small images. You can select how many images across, will be on the contact sheet. You can select between 1 and 8 across by moving the slider from left to right (see the contact sheet selection panel below). The fewer the number of images across, the larger the images will be.
Contact Sheet selection panel. If you have selected multiple images, say a photo album, it will print all of the images you have selected and then stop. If you have selected a single image, then it will print the same image over and over again, filling one full sheet of paper. As you can see in the image above, I have selected 30 photos. The Save Paper Option in the Contact Sheet Selection Panel allows you to save paper by rotating all images the same way and by narrowing the border around the images. Standard Prints (image 4 above and image below): The Standard Print option allows you to print your images at one of three sizes (4x6, 5x7 and 8x10). As you can see in the image below, you choose the size of the image and how many you want per sheet. To print more than one image per sheet, you have to (A) select either 4x6 or 5x7 as the size of your picture, (B) Uncheck the box where it says One Photo Per Page and (C) Have selected more than one image to print. In the Print Selection Panel below, you can see that iPhoto will tell you how many images you have selected, and how many pages there are to print. If you select 8x10 then you can only print one per sheet.
Standard Prints selection panel Resolution Warning : In the Print Panels above, you may see a Yellow Triangle with an Exclamation Mark in it. This is a waring that the image may not have a high enough resolution to print at the size you have selected. Basically, this means that the print may not look very good when you print it. You have two choices when you see this warning 1) Print anyway or 2) Change the size of the image to something smaller.
Advanced Print Options : In the Print Panel you will see an Advanced Options Button. Clicking on this will allow you to use features that are specific to your printer. As you can see in the Advanced Options menu below, you can change the Copies & Pages, Layout, Output Options, and Paper type/quality. Again, the options that you have available here depend on the specific printer that you have. To return to the Standard Print Menu, click on the Standard Options button.
Advanced Options Print Menu Because of the amount of information in lesson six, it is divided into four parts. Click here to go to lesson 6B, Using Slideshow and Mail. |

Most of these tools will work with a single photo or groups of photos. To select an image simply click on it. You can be sure that you have selected an image because it will have a blue border (image right). To select multiple images, you can do one of two things: 1)Highlight (click - hold - drag) from the first to the last image you want to select or 2)Click on the first image you would like to select and then hold in the Shift Key and then click on the last image you would like to select. This will select all of the images (from the first to the last) that you clicked on. 
mages or groups of images. After you have selected the image(s) that you want to print, click on the Print button (right). This will bring up the Print Panel (below).
