I can't seem to find any info on how to add a logo or other jpeg files onto a page in the Lightroom book module. Any suggestions?

THANKS for the reply. I will give these a try but I was hoping that an easier method was already built into LR and I was missing it. Seems to me that there should be a much easier way to do it like say, drag and drop??

Two ways I can think of-

1. Simply Add a Cell to a page and resize it small- Place any photo here from the filmstrip. (JPG, PNG, raw, anything in the Library)

Pros: Use any photo in the library.

Cons: You need to add the cell to every page one-by-one!

Suggestion: Make a "Custom Page" that you can select to have the logo cell already in place.

2. Design a Background image to the ratio of the Book page with your small logo in a corner.

Pros: You can apply the Page background globally for the logo on every page of the Book, and set the opacity.

Cons: You have to design and create the PNG to suit the page dimensions and the size you want the logo. (I did not take care placing the logo in my Photoshop document so you see it 'cut-off' in my screen-clip of the book page.)

My Method#2 is basically "drag and drop"

You check [Apply Background Globally], tick [Graphic], and drag your 'Graphic' background image into the Background panel. Done!

Could it really be easier?

(Uncheck "...Globally" and you can and drag the background to selected pages.)

Designing your background image to show your Logo in the required location will take a little time, but once done it will always be available to "drag and drop" into any book page background.
