Apple Aperture 3.5 - Manual (Page 50)

Chapter 2 Import photos 50
Because reprocessing a large number of photos can be a time-consuming process, you may find
it easier to reprocess photos on an as-needed basis. For example, if you have five-star selects, you
may decide to initially reprocess only those photos. Photos are not affected by being reprocessed
more than once; if a photo already uses the most current image processing, reprocessing it has
no effect.
Note: Some adjustments and brushed adjustments are not available unless the selected photo
uses the most current RAW image processing.
Reprocess a photo selection
1 Do one of the following:
•
To reprocess selected photos: Select a photo or group of photos.
•
To reprocess a project or an album: Select a project, a book, a slideshow, an album, a webpage
album, a web journal album, a Light Table album, or a Smart Album.
•
To reprocess all photos in the library: Select the Photos item in the Library inspector.

Important: Reprocessing thousands of image files can be a lengthy operation. Make sure to set
aside a significant amount of time for Aperture to process the image files—preferably when you
don’t need to use your Aperture system.
2 Choose Photos > Reprocess Originals.
3 In the dialog that appears, select reprocessing options, and click Reprocess Photos.
You can choose whether to reprocess all photos in the selection or just those with or without
adjustments. You can also choose whether to reprocess the existing image versions or a
duplicate set.
Reprocess an individual photo
1 Select a photo.
2 In the Adjustments inspector or the Adjustments pane of the Inspector HUD, choose RAW Fine
Tuning from the Add Adjustment pop-up menu.
3 In the RAW Fine Tuning controls, click the Reprocess button.
Note: If the Reprocess button does not appear in the Adjustments inspector or the Adjustments
pane of the Inspector HUD, the photo has already been reprocessed using Aperture 3.5
image processing.
