New Blurb Layflat Paper Option NOT Supported in LR Classic CC Book Module

Howdy,

Blurb has a built-in interface in the Lightroom Classic CC Book module which has been active for a very long time.  However, Blurb has introduced a new layflat paper option that is NOT supported in Lightroom CC Classic Book module.

It sure would be nice if Adobe kept pace with the vendors they have chosen to include in the direct LR Book module settings and options.

Like, DUH !?!?!?

Cheers,

Mel

    I totally agree.  The Blurb application for Book Module in Lightroom Classic CC is crippled as compared to the program Blurb Bookwright.  Because the program in LR book module is limited, I am forced to download all my images (500-700) needed for a Scientific Photo book ... then reimport them into the better Bookwright application by Blurb.  In that, my collections are useless in the limited Book module in Lightroom - I need to publish my books of 125+ pages using the newer Blurb Layflat Paper Option which is not supported in LR Classic CC Book module.  Additionally, it would nice if Adobe would allow the Book Module to support at least Blurb Bookwright as well as provide the flat Layout Paper Option.  Too Bad...you work with Lightroom and then go to the Book module finding it is limited in its use.  Adobe has a beautiful LR Classic Application which becomes essentially useless in making Photo Books more convenient and more complete functionally  ...even using Blurb....we should be able to work with at 3-4 major Photo Book companies.

    THANK YOU.

    I need to publish my books of 125+ pages using the newer Blurb Layflat Paper Option

    Do you know that the "Layflat" book is limited to 110 pages?

    Thank you for information.  110 pages it will be.  But the essay had more say than the number of pages in a Photo Book.  It relayed the idea that Adobe/Blurb should expand the abilities of the Book Module in Lightroom.
