Copying a Book Album
After you’ve set up a book structure that you like, you can reuse it for other projects. For
example, you might create a wedding album book structure that you reuse frequently.
You can select and duplicate a book album. You can then remove the images from the
album and replace them with others to fill the new book. Aperture can automatically
flow the new images into the duplicated book structure.
