How do I set up my InDesign file for a Perfet Bound 80 Page book when i have images overlapping a two page spread

I am looking to create a photo book that is going to be perfect bound. How do I set up the pages in InDesign so that the images that span two pages line up correctly?

Are you printing this yourself, on a network copier for example? If it's going to be printed on an offset press, it will have to be imposed by prepress techs, and it's their job to make sure that the pages are aligned correctly. There will be some part of a cross-spread image that will be lost in the spine, and their imposition method will take into account whether pages need to be moved outward from the spine by small amounts (called creep) to compensate for the wrap-around that is a part of bindery, but perfect binding isn't as bad as saddle stitch as far as that goes. Talk to your printer, but you will likely just need to compose the book in normal facing-page readers spreads and provide a multi-page PDF (not exported as spreads). They will impose the pages into printers spreads, and thank you for not doing that yourself. There will be aspects of their production that you won't or can't know about, and if you impose it, it will just make it harder for them if they have to undo what you have done incorrectly.

  • How can I set a default save file for scans using the Solution Center?

    Using Windows 7 - 64 bit.   HP Photosmart Premuim C-309a All-In-One Printer.
    Because of a Windows crash, I had to install a new drive and reload Windows. I also reloaded other software like the HP Solution Center & Drivers. My problem is that I can't find how to set a default folder for my scans.  This is NOT mentioned in the user manual but it was originally accomplished by HP Tech Support when the printer was new.  Can anyone relate how to set default folders for my scans?
    Thanks.

    Here is a document on how to scan through Windows 7. 
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03476857
    Click either solution center or the icon of the printer on your desktop. Here select "Scanner Actions" (or the analogous selection). When the window pops up from the HP software it should provide you with options for file type (.tiff, .pdf, .jpg) as well as resolution and media size. Here on this page there is also an option for you to go to the advanced options. Using this you can alter the default safe folder. 
    Let me know if that helps you out!

  • TS3988 How can I set up a new icloud account with a new apple id when I have an old account for which I have lost the password and security questions etc

    I have changed isp and no longer have access to rescue email addresses and have lost my details. I have set up a new apple id and want to set up icloud with this but cant get past the icloud preferences pane with the old address. How do I get around this?

    Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account (this disconnects the device from icloud but doesn't delete any data on icloud or on other devices).
    If you then want to sign back in using a different ID, do so on the same screen.

    How do I set Firefox to be usable for all users on one computer?

    I would think the about:config entries discussed are ex-factory set to values each user has to change individually, after the installation has run its course. The solution could be to have patched files ready to install post factum:

    How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg, even ones that are not yet installed / connected to the computer?
    I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

    Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
    If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

  • How can I install InDesign CS6 with my newly purchased serial no. when I have deleted the trial?

    hi guys,
    I need to know how I can install InDesign CS6 with my newly purchased serial no. when I have deleted the trial version? In other words I do not have the trial version any longer so I need the actual download files/folder to link the serial number to. I have CC as well but that shouldn't make a difference - I need to run InDesign CS6 for third party plugins.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi there,
         If you have purchased CS6 Indesign Download from Adobe Online, then you can go ahead and login to your Adobe account and navigate to "My Adobe" > "My Orders" to locate the Order, its download and the serial number.
         You can also download the same trial version again and just use the serial number to activate it to a full version. Below is the link for the trial versions for CS6 versions:

  • How do I set up a seperate account for my wife?

    We finally purchased a nice new iPhone for my wife. But she would like her own iTunes account. How do I set up a seperate account for her? She has her own laptop, with an iTunes account on it that I was using. Should I just un-install that iTunes package and have her download a new version? I'd rather have two versions so I don't lose the music on that old iTunes account. It's not huge, but would be a PITA.

    Go to iTunes > Store > Sign Out (your apple id) and sign your wife apple id in.

  • How do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.

    how do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.  My iMac is the 24" Late 2006 model.  I recall that there is a cord for plugging in a second monitor, but I want to make sure that i can use both monitors side-by-side at the same time.  thank you.

    If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
    If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
    Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

  • HT2731 How do I set up an Apple ID for a child with gift card credit

    How do I set up an Apple ID for a chld with a gift card credit, without credit card details and without using my own account?

    Go to the main iTunes Store page (within iTunes),  click on the "Redeem" link on the right side of the page, click "Create Apple ID", and enter in the code from your card when requested. You should be able to create an iTunes Store account for your child without needing a credit card. You'll just need an email address for him/her to create the ID, though it can be a "temporary" one that you don't intend to really be used. You can change the email address to which receipts are sent to an account you really wish to use.
    Regards.

    I would prefer to answer in your post. as I have tried on two occasions to help.. so far this is the first time I can see you stated  you are using Lion.
    1. Did you download and install the 5.6 utility..?
    I said to do it.. you never said yes.. I did that.
    Please do it. .. you will get no place before you do.
    2. Did you bridge the TC.. ?
    If so it will work perfectly.. please post a screen shot of the summary page from the 5.6 utility. If something is wrong I can work it out from there.
    3. Or ring apple support and get them to walk you through the setup.. there should be phone support for the first week or two.

    You will probably need to create an apple Id for you grandson, so you can call that ID instead of yours.

  • Multiple indesign files for product brochure one data merge file

    I have multiple indesign files for product brochure and there are price changes for various products.
    attached is a screen shot of the folder where all the indesign files are located as you can see each one has been laid out as a spread.
    Rather than opening each individual indesign file to amend prices can i quickly? or is there a way of compliling all documents into one file and quickly updating the price with the data merge file.
    thanks in advance.

    Absolutely not.
    (1)     PDF/VT-1 files must also be PDF/X-4 files. The “create PDF via distillation of PostScript” method precludes this since PostScript supports neither live transparency nor color management.
    (2)     The efficiencies of PDF/VT-1 require use of Forms XOjects and Image XObjects in the PDF file. That requires direct PDF creation that you get from PDF export. This is not available via any route that uses stink'in PostScript as an intermediary.
    (3)     Adobe most strongly endorses PDF creation from InDesign via the export function, not printing to PostScript and distilling. Such PostScript is optimized strictly for printing and not for PDF file creation.
