    Color-shifts: PS vs InDesign PDFs

    We are using CS4 Creative Suite (MacOSX) In PhotoShop (PS), we have a standard agency color profile, that is setup in color settings. All our images use this setting, which has worked great. I have recently noticed some inconsistencies when PDFs and JPGs are made from InDesign. After checking...

    InDesign HR Layered PDF & editable AI file?

    Thanks everyone for your input! Shawn your solution worked as far as the layered pdf, so thanks! I'm still struggling with the type going into illustrator. They have to replace the text anyway, so I'm not real clear why they have to edit it. I sent the layered PDF to them to see if it will work...

    InDesign HR Layered PDF & editable AI file?

    Sorry, "they" are the web-tech bunch that are creating a scenario where a client can build their own ads. Not really sure why it has to be editable either, since you can edit text in Acrobat Pro. Their main request is to have a HR Layered PDF. I don't see where you can do that in InDesign. It...

    InDesign HR Layered PDF & editable AI file?

    Two part question: Does anyone know how to create a HR Layered PDF from InDesign CS4? I can make a "smallest file size" PDF and it gives me the option for layers, but the other presets gray this option out. Also, they are asking that it be editable in Illustrator. In a PressQuality PDF the...

    AS400 formatted text pulled into Quark

    We just upgraded from CS2 to CS4, and we can no longer run in "classic mode," which leaves me in a dilemma. We are using an AS400 data base. Before CS4, I would translate the text on the AS400, which has embedded formats. Then I would take the file it produced and import it into a Quark 4.3...

    importing AS400 formated text into InDesign?

    Thanks Tommy! I did try this, but I still get all of the embedded coding. I just found out from our IT dept. that this formatted text can only be translated on a Mac, so they are going to re-issue my old Mac for this particular project, which will solve my immediate problem. However, I still...

    Photoshop Clipping path trouble-help!

    Re: Photoshop Clipping path trouble-help! Thanks for your advise Beermonster. I could do it that way, but I still wonder what has changed. I do the paths the same as I always have. The only change is CS2 and Tiger. So, not sure what is up. Thanks though, good idea! Kirsten

    Photoshop Clipping path trouble-help!

    Re: Photoshop Clipping path trouble-help! I do my clipping paths the exact same way, but for some reason, if I move a point up, so high, it no longer works in InDesign. I might not be explaining this well, but picture a T-shirt. I have clipped the bottom of the shirt out, saved the clipping...

    Photoshop Clipping path trouble-help!

    Hello! We just recently upgraded to Tiger and CS2. I have been doing clipping paths in Photoshop, like I normally would, but when production places them into InDesign they won't read. I go to Object/Clipping Paths/Photoshop/Silo, then it does work, but looks awful on screen. I went into...

    Relative vs Absolute

    Hello! We just got a new Epson 4800 along with the EFI ColorProof software. Our printers are giving us their icc profiles and we are trying to create a workflow for each. When I run the proofing chart (with all of the squares), I noticed that the printer has added a substrate tint (in one case...
