Step 23:
If you choose to have your topic printed
directly from Lightroom to Blurb, then
you've got one more step: go to the bot-
tom of the right side Panels area and click
the Send Book to Blurb button (shown
at left). This brings up the Purchase Book
dialog, where you sign into your Blurb
account (if you don't have one, you can
set one up for free—click the Not a Mem-
ber button in the bottom left). Once you
log in, choose a Book Title, Book Subtitle
(if any), and add the author's name (you,
presumably), then click the Upload Book
button. In a few days, your topic will arrive
(as shown below—my Blurb-printed ver-
sion of the topic).
TIP: The Numbers Above the
Filmstrip Thumbnails
If you see a number (like 1 or 2) above
an image in the Filmstrip, that's letting
you know that photo has been placed
into the topic and how many times it
has been used.
Step 24:
Now, before you do anything else, let's
save your topic (in case you want to make
more of these later) by clicking on the
Create Saved Book button at the top
right of the Preview area. This saves your
topic layout to the Collections panel, so
it's saved and just one click away. Okay,
that's it—you've created your first topic.
If you noticed that we didn't go into
adding text to your photo topic, that's
because there are a number of type
features, so I thought we should go in-
depth into them, and we do—starting
on the next page.
