Author Topic: How to create photo Book with Hebrew Text (Read 9628 times)

dirah · « **on:** October 14, 2012, 09:34:41 PM »

I would like to create a photo Book with both Hebrew and English Text.
Snapfish and Shutterfly do not support Hebrew text.
Does anyone know any way that such a photo book can be done?
Thanks.

This might be backwards but it works. Create a page in PowerPoint for example. Type in words in Hebrew (I did it for my child, a bracha book, put a pic, added the bracha) and then save it as an image. Upload it to any online photo book and voila

I prefer to do it forwards

Create the entire page in Photoshop or similar with whatever text you want, then upload the Shutterfly as a JPEG.

Witch format image is best to upload, for clear text and sharp images?

JPEG is fine, just make sure that your working at 300dpi and sizing everything properly.

Fine? Is there any better?

And also how good will uploading a full book be? Did you ever try that?

I don't know what you mean by that.

I wanna upload a full hebrew book, 30 pages, now can I have it printed from right to left? And what are the precautions i need to know?

If you build each page in Photoshop you could make whatever you want. Upload it one page at a time.

Thay have an "upload Pdf" option, ever tried that? makes sense that it prints better than Jpeg?

I've never tried it myself, but I've heard that the quality of the book is quite bad.

ah giten · « **Reply #14 on:** March 23, 2016, 12:47:21 AM »

so Jpeg is the solution? or also not that good. Is there any better site for this?

Considering that I'm looking to put captions on about 50 pictures in different fonts, styles and colors, that can be a real pain the neck.

If I was a graphic designer that would be an option but my main reason for using shutterfly is for their templates etc.

Where do you live? There are local stores in Brooklyn that have templates, and also support Hebrew.

P.s. I think some of them have a website where you have it shipped as well.

Adoramapix supports Hebrew.
