Operation Manual

Using the book designs and page layouts included in Aperture, you can print outstanding

portfolios of your work that show your images in their best light. You can order printed

printed results and direct delivery to you or your clients. You can also print your own

custom books on a color printer, or create files that you can hand off to a print vendor.
