I am using LR CC Classic 7.4 on Mac OS 10.11.6.

I am trying to export a book as JPEG.

Set up my book as JPEG in Book Settings and clicked on Export Book to JPEG ... I get an empty folder

Exporting to PDF works great.

What am I doing wrong?

Tks

With the latest upgrade (actually with book module upgrade) and with the help of you guys I was able to fix my issue. Now I can build my albums with LR, save as JPG and use a local online app (which sucks) to print my albums.

I can export a Book to JPG individual files, but certainly not "multipage" as Jim has mentioned.

In the 'Export' dialog you highlight a folder for the export location, and in the "Filename" field you type the name to give your JPGs.

Are your saved JPGs possibly going to another folder?

Do a search for the filename you defined.

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .

Maybe if I had tried the book module I would know a little more about it. I haven't used it for creating books. In fact, I haven't created a book now for a couple of years. I used other software when I did.

Unless I'm not understanding your question, you cannot save a book as a JPEG. JPEG is not a multipage file format. You can save a book as a PDF, or you can send the book to Blurb to be published. But those are the options that I'm aware of.
