How can I place good screenshots into InDesign?

This is essentially what I am trying to do as well...Is there a correct answer that was given? How do know which answer is the one correct answer that is noted in the forum? My question is identical to the one below. My screen shots are off a website.
I am working on a guide in InDesign to distribute to our customers that shows step by step instructions on how to use our software.  I am taking screenshots of the software and placing them into InDesign.  I have tried this many different ways now and I can't get the images to look clear.  I have taken the screenshot and pasted it into Illustrator, Photoshop, even Paint and then saved it as many different file types, jpeg, gif, tif, etc.  It looks great in Illustrator or Photoshop but after I place the image into InDesign it looks awful.  It looks blurry on the screen and after I print.
If I paste the image into Illustrator and then copy from there and simply paste into InDesign the image looks much better.  Almost perfect.  But I know this isn't the right way to do this and the images aren't saved/linked this way.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • How can I place a file in INDESIGN 3 at 100%

    I am a novice Indesign user using Indesign 3 on a PC. The other office I work with is using Indesign 3 on a Mac.
    When I open their indd files and view them, the placed images indicate 100% when I use the direct selection tool to check the percentage. However, If I design the same page, create a frame and place the same image from the original link they used as well, when I fit the content proportionally, and use the direct selection tool to see the size, it comes in at the percentage from the original file, say 42% if it was decreased by approx. half.
    I am sure there is an easy explanation for this, but I cannot find it in my searching. Can someone help me understand what I am missing here.
    I appreciate your assistance with this question.
    Ginger Creswell

    Since you have her file, what happens if you open her file and place the image without first making and selecting a frame? Is it the same size as the image in the frame?
    >Yes when I make the frame, place the image, fit the image to the frame, it reads 42% -(then 100% when selected with the black arrow tool) this is the way I believe it should be.
    Unless the frame you create is exactly the same size as the image you place into it, it will always change size if you fit the image to the frame. If the frame is smaller, the image will have to be made smaller to fit into the frame. The same applies to a larger frame.
    I don't get the impression that you are confusing scaling with cropping, but it should be mentioned that you can have a 100% size image in a smaller frame if part of the image is outside the boundries of the frame.
    Also, I mentioned in an earlier post that the most likely error would be that the image in the original isn't the same (has the same name, but has been changed in its original program) as the image you are trying to place, even if your San Fran designer sent it to you (she could have sent you the wrong image). If you open her file and package it, it will spit out a copy of the image, which you can try placing to see if you still get the same results.

  • How can i import .pmd files into Indesign CC, which where created with pagemaker?

    Hello!
    i have a problem with a new Installation of indesign cc... i can*t import old .pmd Pagemaker files into it!!
    it was possible with Indesign cs6, but apparently no longer..!?
    ..is there an extension or anything else i could use?
    thanks in advance for any Tip,       
    sincerely Sanitest

    ..well, the fact that i can install an older Version of id is an releave...!but! the fact that i cannot open .pmd file in id cc is .. in my humble opinion
    a bad sign of things to come.. i mean sooner or later adobe will completely cancel the ability to download/use id cs6 ... and then what?... buy an old version of pagemaker
    or id 1..cs6?
    if anyone close to adobe has anything substantially to say.. please go ahead..!
    best regards Sanitest

  • How can I place Tagged Text in InDesign

    I use tagged text in the files I place
    in InDesign. For example,
    <cn>This is the chapter number
    <ct>This is the chapter title
    <cst>This is the chapter subtitle
    <bt>This is the beginning of the body text
    <ah>This is an A-level head
                    and so on. In PageMaker, there was a checkbox in the "place"
    dialogue box named "Read tags." I checked that, and when I placed the file in the template (in which I had the styles defined), the whole chapter appeared with the formatting I wanted for each style.
                    I can't find the equivalent checkbox in InDesign. I can't believe it is no longer there, but search as I do, I can't find it. There is a lot online about exporting tagged text, but where, oh where, is my checkbox for placing tagged text? If someone knows where it is, I'd be very grateful.

  • How can I import scanned images into InDesign CS5 using Mac10.6?

    I want to be able to import scanned images. What file format must I save the data in?

    Greg Parks L.A. wrote:
    For example, to print on a press you need images that are CMYK at 300 ppi, 100% scale. If you're just making office-quality documents or PDFs, you can use RGB images at a lower resolution.
    You do not need images to be CMYK for print. InDesign can handle the conversion from RGB to CMYK when exporting to PDF. The old rule of thumb that images for print need to be 300 ppi is history. The ideal minimum resolution is halftone screen times the square root of 2 (1.41421356). But you can get away with a lower resolution for most images.

  • How can I place an image into an email receipt or confirmation message?

    Once a FormsCentral form is completed and submitted, I would like to send the submitter an email receipt or confirmation message that includes an image and a URL link. Is that possible? I know an image can be inserted into the first form they complete, but I'm not seeing that feature in any of the autoresponse options.

    Hi,
    Currently, only a plain text message may be provided when customizing the email receipt or confirmation message.

  • How to import a PSD file into Indesign WITH layers so it can be edited/saved as an InDesign file?

    How to import a Photoshop file into Indesign CS6 so that it's layers show in InDesign and it can then be edited/saved as an InDesign file?

    MyTienN wrote:
    Someone had mentioned the possibility of saving each individual layer in Photoshop as a png file and importing into Indesign and adjusting it in there
    What do you mean by "adjust"? Editing of Photoshop images should be done in Photoshop.
    Sure, it's possible to save individual layers from an image in Photoshop as inidvidual files in a variety of formats, but what's the point? You could just as easily import the layered file, then copy/paste it into a new layer for each layer in the image and use layer visibility to control which ones show. I don't think that will do you a lot of good, though, if you use adjustment layers or opacity controls on the layer in Photoshop.

    Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

  • How do I import a .PDF into inDesign?

    How do I import a .PDF into inDesign? Does anybody know how? I need to edit a book in inDesign that is a .PDF. So if anyone know how to do that please tell me.

    Bob, Peter, grmg, many thanks for your very helpful comments.  Delighted mac/pc not relevant.  Will scratch that from list of herrings to chase.
    Re PDFs - actually, I'm working in Acrobat (not just a finalized PDF), and Acrobat does of course allow editing of a sort; I'd concluded that since Adobe is willing to tolerate that degree of editing with its product, it should therefore tolerate moving its native format (*.pdf) into another of its own native formats (*.indd). I see that's a misconception.
    This morning I tried all flavors I could find of getting my Acrobatted content into ID3, including copy/paste, place, and import (from the ID side); none was satisfactory.  Output from Acrobat to Word and then placing Word was fine for English but destroyed the Greek - not just wrong font, but complete gobbledygook and loss of all diacriticals.  Names of fonts don't matter for my purposes; the legibility of the English, and the legibility and tonic accuracy of the Greek do matter. Author of this project is not tech-savvy and is using old Greek system as well; nothing he or i can do to fix that.
    Current plan is to request author to provide me his native files, which will be Mac files.  Am I understanding the Import dialog and your collecitve comments to suggest that with that file resident on my PC (and unopened), I can use the Place dialog, with "Show Options" selected, to get the Mac file into ID?
    Chapeaux to those of you with constructive comments - hugely appreciated.

  • How can i write a string into a specified pos of a file?

    How can i do it? thank you

    take this as an idea. it actually does what i decribed above. you sure need to make some modifications so it works for your special need. If you use it and add any valuable code to it or find any bugs, please let me know.

  • How can I import iPhone contacts into Mac Address book

    I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and am in the process of trying to dump my Windows PC.
    All of my important contacts are on my iPhone. How can I get those contacts into my Mac Address Book?
    The same question goes for the music (ripped from CD) and my video files that are on my iPhone? The media is not that big of a deal because I can easily transfer it from my PC to my Mac but I assume I am not the only one in the world trying to do this and that Apple would make it very easy for MSFT Windows users to easily migrate to Macs.
    I must be an idiot but I don't see any option in iTunes to transfer the data from my iPhone into iTunes and/or the Address Book.
    Thanks

    The iPhone's primary function is NOT a word processor or a spread sheet analyzer.
    I didn't say, nor was I trying to imply ANYTHING of the sort. You should read what I provided again a little slower and in it's entirety, not taking this out of context, which you made into Apples and Oranges.
    It IS an iPod, a device designed to store and play music (in addition to being a browser and a phone).
    It is a phone, an iPod, and an internet device, which supports transferring iTunes content from iTunes on a single computer ONLY.
    Making it difficult to transfer my legal music from my iPhone to my Mac does not make me want to go out and buy more Apple products or Apple software.
    Good, then don't - no skin off my back. I couldn't care less if you want to remain a Windows sufferer. All this doesn't come from Apple. Much of it comes from those who OWN the distribution rights for content sold thru the iTunes Store.
    All of Apple's commercials imply how easy the user experience is over Windows. Well, in this case, they missed the boat BIG TIME!
    Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but let me get this straight. You will likely need to transfer much more than just music from your Windows PC to your Mac and if so, how do you plan on accomplishing this? If you are transferring Word and Excel files, photos, and any other data, you won't be using an iPhone for this, so I don't see the big deal with transferring your iTunes library along with all other data being transferred.
    I understand that the iPhone was not designed to be used as a backup. However, you allow the contacts to be merged in but not the music that I legally installed (but didn't purchase from the iTunes store).
    I don't allow anything - this is a user to user help forum only.
    As I provided in my first post in this thread - the sync process for contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks with an iPhone is bidirectional with the supported application on your computer. This is a sync process by definition of syncing - which is not the same for other data such as iTunes content and photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone.

    Apple wants to make it difficult unless I purchased the music from iTunes.
    No, Apple or really those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders for content sold thru the iTunes Store wants to make this difficult. Content sold thru the iTunes Store is set up by Apple to be a break even - which is included with the Apple stockholder's report. Apple makes their profit via sales of the iPod and iPhone. The bulk of the iTunes Store revenue goes to those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders for the content.
    In addition, if my hard disk suffered a crash and I lost all my music it just seems stupid not to be able to pull it off my iPhone (yes, I know data should be backed up on a different drive, and mine is, but I am sure a lot of people do not back up their data).
    Maintaining a backup of your data is important for this very reason, and for other reasons which is not Apple's responsibility. I believe iTunes includes an occasional warning message to backup your iTunes library (which can be turned off), and iTunes includes an option to transfer content purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone - since the overwhelming majority of this content includes DRM protection required by those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders.
    The iPhone was not designed as an external storage device or as a backup device - end of story. If someone chooses not to maintain a backup, they are playing Russian roulette with their data. Maintaining a backup is important regardless the platform, but even more so when running Windows with constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.

  • What are the tools to create a digital magazine for ipad version and how can be place it in newsstand?

    Hello..
    "what are the tools to create a digital magazine for ipad version and how can be place it in newsstand?"
    I am very tired after done a week of R&D on this issue..
    But i doesn't get any fair solution for this one..
    I hope this is best option to place my issue here to get quick solution..
    Thanks and Regards..

    We are all users here.
    There is no one here from Apple.
    In order for you to develop and distribute content for the iPad, you need to become an apps developer.
    Not sure where you sign up for this or who you have to call.
    There should be a place on Apple's site that refers to a section of the site if you want to be an Apple iOS content developer.
    It cost, I believe $99 U.S. to become an Apple apps developer. You'll agree to Apple's Non-disclosure rules.  You'll receive Apple's app/software developers kit,and access to Apple's app developer site.
    No one here is going to be able to help you.
    Good Luck.

  • Please suggest how can we place chart series label evenly in Pie Chart of SSRS 2008

    Could you please suggest how can we place chart series label value evenly so that it doesnot overlap with each other and user can view the data properly.
    Please find  the attached  screenshot for the same.

    Hi SubhadipRoy,
    As Satish posted, the solution can achieve your goal. In addition, you can right click the Chart Series Labels and Series Label Properties, and then select Number in the left pane, finally select Scientific below the Category option. The data label may not
    overlay. Or you can enlarge the chart.
