Adobe InDesign Alternative Layouts - Problem

Hello, please, can you help me?
I want to use InDesign for a ebook. I use an alternative layout and wanted to save it as a PDF. But since the problems started. The PDF shows me now all alternative layouts (one after another), not only as the version for the tablet.
How can I make it so that I see on the tablet, use only the optimized version, but not even the PC version?
Und auf Deutsch:
Ich möchte InDesign für ein E-Book nutzen. Dazu habe ich zunächst alternative Layouts erstellt und wollte es mir als PDF ausgeben lassen. Beim PDF habe ich aber nun alle unters. Formate in einer Datei. Kann man es irgendwie so machen, dass ich 1 Datei habe und das PDF mir - je nachdem was ich nutze - die optimierten Versionen anzeigt oder muss ich wirklich alle alternativen Layouts seperat speichern?
Vielen Dank schon mal

  • Adobe InDesign CS4 opening problem

    Hi,
    I have problem of opening Adobe InDesign CS4.
    At the following images you can see the error messages that comes one after the other.
    I really need your help......
    Thank you so much in advance,

    No....
    but thank you ssoooo much for your effort.
    Now it is just crashing without the error massages
    and the error report is

  • Adobe InDesign CS3 Installation Problem...Over One Year and Counting

    Well, it's been over a year since I purchased the Pagemaker to InDesign upgrade. I've tried at lease 15 times to load the software with the same "shared components failed to install" errors.
    I've tried the Web for answers, the Clean-up utility and even called the tech support line. The answer (after waiting at least an hour on the phone) was to back up all of my files (on my time, not theirs) and run the scrub utility with the "undocumented" option 4...but watch out...
    As a user of Pagemaker for nearly 15 years, I can't believe that Adobe (formerly Aldus) would release a product that cannot be used. I spent a bit over $200 for the upgrade...they got my money...I got a DVD of software that cannot be installed successfully.
    As a customer for over 3 versions of the Pagemaker software, I find it a bit odd that I would have to spend hours on my computer trying to get Adobe software to install properly.
    Is it just me, or have others given up on this?

    And so what happened? I think Adobe is the first place you should go
    with installation issues, and you should (and they should too) persist
    until you get past the problem.
    Tech support is a PITA. They make you do things you don't want to do
    (like back up all your files on your own time); they make you jump
    through silly hoops and crawl under the desk pulling parts out of your
    computer; but they also have an obligation to get it working on your
    computer, whatever it takes.
    Call them back. Get a number. Keep track of who you talk to. Ask them to
    bump you up to the next level. Keep trying.

  • Adobe Indesign CC crash problem

    I am having trouble with my Indesign CC application.
    Everytime I try to launch the app (this was after trying to open a document previous worked on in Indesign CS5), just as it starts opening up, it brings up the message "restore windows" and "don't restore windows". Irrespective of what I do, it crashes after that everytime. I have already tried removing the cache files and putting them into the trash bin temporarily. I have also tried uninstalling and re-installing the app, as well deleting the existing preferences file.
    Should I send you the error code as well - would that help?
    regards

  • Adobe InDesign Export Font problem

    i use InDesign cs6 to work on magazine
    and now when i try export the magazine to pdf [ Print ] i get this error
    and when i try export to pdf [ Interactive ] i get this error
    Anyone please can tell me how to avoids this error without change the font or make it outline .
    Thanks alot

    That is not an error, it's a fact. There is nothing you can do with this font unless you contact the vendor and find out if they have an embeddable version.
    FWIW, I would never even consider using a font without embedding rights and converting to outlines is likely to be a violation of the font license as well.

  • How do I get Adobe InDesign CS6 to export non-pixelated PNGs?

    I am having trouble exporting PNGs from Adobe Indesign. The problem is they become very pixelated once they have been exported to PNG. However, when I export to JPEG, there is no pixelation, they look perfect! Has anyone else had this problem?
    I need to export them as PNGs because some pages have transparency effects, which JPEG doesn't support.
    Is this a bug in Adobe InDesign CS6? Is it a configuration option that I can change?
    Below I have provided sample screenshots of the JPEG and PNG files, along with the export settings I used.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    To demonstrate this problem, I've uploaded a sample InDesign project which still exhibits the same PNG export problem:

    If anyone is able to generate a non-pixelated PNG from this sample InDesign project, please let me know how you did it.

  • Alternative to Adobe Indesign for more Complicated Data Merges?

    Attached is a snapshot of what i currently have going with Adobe Indesign.
    Unfortunatly, Indesign has some problems that i have not been able to find a solution to :
    1.) When using the " Multiple Record Layout ", it will not populate the rest of the screen if there is an embedded picture in the background.
    2.) I prefer a much simpler approach, for instance, designating a certain field as Data derived from Cell " EH3 " in excel for example, instead of relying on the multiple record layout.
    3.) The Documents I want to generate are not incognito in regards to Layouts and i want something with more powerful customization and also able to use the Entire Excel File and display data all within one page, without going the multiple record layout route.
    That pretty much sums it up, I've included a picture of the templatei've made in indesign, I've made a red circle at the bottom to indicate the part of the document that will not work with a multiple record layout approach, since the data export is basically a mirror of itself all the way down.
    Any Suggestions as to what kind of program i should use would be most appreciated or alternative methods of using Indesign.Thank you for your time.

    There are third-party programs and plug-ins that do much more than Data Merge, but they usually have a high cost and a more steep learning curve. One that I've used in the past with QuarkXPress is XData from Em Software (they also have one for InDesign called InData, but I haven't used it). They're like Data Merge on steroids. There are others, so Google and see what you can find.

  • Fixed Layout EPUBs in Adobe Indesign CC 2014

    Hi Friends,
    I'm fascinated with the prospects of the Fixed Layout EPUBs.   In the few video tutorials that are more current, Adobe host shows the ability to PREVIEW the EPUBs using the menu  item OBJECT > INTERACTIVE > Epub Previewer.  But no go. 
    So, I've now installed from Creative Cloud, the Extend Script tool kit as well as Extension Manager.   I also installed Edge Inspect CC.
    Am I on the right track to find or install the Interactive > Fixed Layout EPUB Previewer?    I need your guidance and have not found anything through my searches online.  
    I exported my Fixed Layout EPUB yesterday and the slider I created by following one of the few tutorials caused some sort of problem because that entire SPREAD was blank, although all other pages were present. 
    Thanks for any guidance. 
    Sincerely
    mary

    Hi Steve, I am a regular subscriber to Creative Cloud and have updated all apps.  My version of Adobe InDesign does show 2014.1 under About InDesign.
    Believe it or not, one of the more helpful videos out in Adobe TV land showed interactive under the Object menu:
    See 5:30 on this page: https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/how-to/interactivity-fixed-layout-epub.html?set=indesign- -key-techniques--epub-fixed-layout  I finally found the answer here at Adobe forums (monica).   Now I have it installed in the panel on the right.
    I'm on an iMac and use all Apple products.   I've tossed Windows to the wind. 
    Thank you so much for your support.

  • InDesign CC 2014 crashes when creating alternative layouts

    InDesign CC 2014 crashes when creating alternative layouts. I successfully created alternative layouts in 3 documents, now I cannot create any at all, it just crashes the program.

    I just taught a class using Alternative Layouts in InDesign CC 2014 without crashing.
    Start by telling us what kind of computer and operating system you're running. Are you having any other problems in InDesign CC 2014? Have you try restoring your preferences?

  • Free alternative to adobe indesign for macbook air

    I have experience in using adobe indesign however I have just brought a MacBook air and my copy of indesign is on my windows machine!
    is there a free alternative to indesign that anyone can recommend or someway of me getting it from a windows to a mac?
    Thanks

    No. I have seen nothing even close to InDesign in the free department. You could install Windows in bootcamp on your Mac and install it there.
    Check the bootcamp forums

    Hello
    You download a copy of Adobe InDesign CC

  • After Updating Adobe Indesign CC ,While I'm selecting text in a paragraph, the text disappears and this problem repeated several times before update everything was ok

    After Updating Adobe Indesign CC ,While I'm selecting text in a paragraph, the text disappears and this problem repeated several times before update everything was ok

    First, see Replace Your Preferences and do it for the original account.
    If that fails to solve the problem, rename the two Adobe folders that contain the prefs in the user profile for that account and copy the folders from the new account where it works. You want to be sure you copy the folders, rather than merge the contents, so you must rename the old folders first.

  • Problem downloading Adobe InDesign CS5.5 family

    I have subscribed for Online Store Download of Creative Suite CS5. Download of instructions plus the actual product downloaded successfully. Now wanting to continue downloading other downloads seen in my downloads. One I just downloaded is called Adobe InDesign CS5.5 Family. To download without Akamai Manager I downloaded the file using the Alternate Download Method.
    So the download now resides on my desktop and a folder is titled Contents. When I double-click it shows font family folders. How do I install them into InDesign? Do I drag the icon onto my InDesign Application Icon...
    Help most appreciative.

    To a Moderater: Can someone move it to the German forum?

    WIe sind Deine Farbeinstellungen: Bearbeiten > Farbeinstellungen? Vor allem was sind die verwendeten CMYK-Richtlinien.
    Das Problem ist dann gegeben, wenn Dein Dokument in einem CMYK-Farbprofil angelegt ist (und Deine Grafiken) und die Ausgabe erfolgt auf ein anderes Farbprofil.
    Damit der Farbeindruck gleich bleibt, werden die Farben in ein anderes Farbprofil konvertiert, damit die Farbwerte gleich bleiben, wird die Einstellung Werte erhalten verwendet. Das ist eben in den Farbeinstellungen generell festgelegt, kann jedoch spezifisch beim PDF-Export abweichend gewählt werden.
    Bei der Verwendung von CMYK-Bildmaterial steht man bei einem abweichenden Ausgabeprofil vor dem Dilemma, entweder man erhält die Farbwerte und verändert den Farbeindruck der Bilder oder man konvertiert und konvertiert daurch auch in buntes Schwarz.
    Die einfache Lösung in InDesign ist, dass man ausschließlich Bilder, also Fotos, in RGB platziert und Vektoren als CMYK und dann bei der Ausgabe „Werte erhalten” wählt.
