Abstract
A method for producing a set of images as a photobook is provided. The method includes selecting a set of images having meta data and determining an attribute value for an attribute associated with each of the images. After determining an attribute value of an attribute, the method adjusts the attribute value associated with at least one of the images to render the attribute value of the images uniform. The method then organizes the images automatically using the meta data and determines a layout of the photobook by automatically adjusting spatial characteristics of the images within the photobook. Once the method determines a layout of the photobook, the method outputs the photobook.
