Q: I'm creating a 'book' from an album in iPhoto.  I have downloaded the latest version.  However, I have selected a certain book i.e. wire bound, 19 page and when I'm creating it, it indicates 33 pages for one, and 42 pages for another.  How can I control?

I'm creating a book from an album in iPhoto.  I have downloaded the latest version of iPhoto.  When I choose a book, i.e. wirebound, 19-20 page book, it shows a 42 page book when I am populating the pictures in the book I've selected.  Is that because I have more pictures in the album? 

 

In any case, I can't seem to manipulate/choose the number of pages I want.  How can I stick with the 20 page book I want?

 

Thanks.

    You can not select the "number of pages" - you select the photos and the page layours and the number of pages comes form that - with Autoflow iPhoto uses random page layouts so the number of pages is rando=m

     

    You can change layouts to include more photos, move photos to the pages with no empty photos frames and then delete the pages at the end after the photos are used elsewhere

    good

     

    You can suggest that Apple ad a feature to allow you to select the number of pages to create - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
