AE with Aperture Faces support Beta now open

I'm now opening up beta testing for Aperture Exporter with faces support. For sure this was the most requested feature request and many people were waiting for a version that supported faces.

How it works:
AE reads the Aperture database in order to determine which images have identified faces. Those images receive keywords that indicate the faces in the image. The format of the keyword is:

Face - [name]

AE will try to automatically determine the location of your Aperture library and that code looks solid. However, if doesn't get the right library you can tell AE where it is really located.

Since this is a beta version there may still be bugs in the code. Please don't hold back on letting us know of anything that goes wrong.

Users with license keys have unrestricted access to the new faces feature. Unregister users will find that AE is restricted to tagging up to 5 faces in your images.

This beta also includes an export resume mode. Some notes about resume mode:

When you begin an export, AE will check the destination folder to see if it contains *any* subfolders. If it detects that, it will prompt you for Resume Mode, or Normal Mode.

In Resume mode, when AE comes across a folder that already exists in the export hierarchy AE will skip that folder for exporting. In previous AE versions, it is possible that AE had a chance to create the directory and put in the originals and TIFFs with adjustments before cancelling took effect. However, there is a check for cancellation that happens just prior to the JPEG with adjustments generation which means if you were unlucky, you have a folder that has the originals and maybe some TIFFs with adjustments, but no JPEGs with adjustments.

This new code will actually delete the last folder it was working on when an export was cancelled so that going forward this won’t be an issue.
