Problem exporting jpg files

When exporting jpg images from Aperture to a USB stick, I selected 'JPEG - Original Size' in the export popup, but the images exported were only 10k thumbnails although the images in Aperture are all over 3mb.

I got round it by uploading the jpg files to Flickr, then downloading them, but I shouldn't have to do that!

This has worked properly in the past, any suggestions how to make it work again would be very welcome 🙂

Hi Richard,

Confirm that the settings attached to the Preset "JPEG - Original Size" are what you think they should be.

"Aperture➞Presets➞Image Export".

Confirm (just in case) that you are exporting via one of the "File➞Export" dialogs.

Export a couple of the files to your Desktop (or other Finder folder for testing). Are they the right dimensions?

Hi Kirby, thanks for your reply. It was the presets, which had changed since the last time I used this function. I had never looked at these before, and never had a problem - it's mysterious why they should have changed.

Glad that was it. Others have reported a mysterious change in their Presets. We don't, afaik, know what does this. No one has yet -- again, afaik -- reported it re-happening.
