Images in TOC in InDesign CS6

I'm hoping someone can help me. I’m using InDesign CS6 on a Windows 8.1 Pro.
I'm busy with a book and I did anchor the grouped images (grey block and a text block) so that they move with the heading. This text is in a paragraph style. When I create my toc the images also appear in the toc, but I don't want them there. Is there a way to only have the text in my toc?
Any help on these questions is appreciated.

you can do the same thing explained in the previous post by resetting the paragraph style "Heading" with a fixed return when the lesson is with one number and another para style whenthe titles when the lesson has two digits

  • Formatting TOC in InDesign cs6

    I have a question about formatting the TOC in InDesign cs6.
    I am currently working on editing a catalogue for my work which may end up being +700 pages long. Each product page has a product name and product desciption under neath.
    Eg:
    Product Name
    Product Description
    Each are in a seprate text box with a specific paragraph style.
    I am trying to generate the TOC so that it will inclue the Product Name and Description on the same line (see example of desired outcome)
    Eg:
    Product Name     Product Description...............................Page Number
    I have yet been able to figure how how to do this as there are many, many formatting options in ID.
    I would greatly appreaciate if anyone had any tips for me to make this process go as smoothly as possible.
    Regards,
    Valerie

  • How do i take a image of a wine glass and wrap a image around it in indesign cs6

    How do i take and image of a wine glass and wrap another image around it!

    InDesign isn't the correct application for such a manipulation.
    If the "image of a wine glass" is a 2-dimensional image, you may be able to create the illusion of something wrapped around it in Photoshop, but there won't be any automatic solutions. Fundamentally, what you're proposing is a function of 3-D modeling.

  • How can I make the bleed image content reappear in indesign cs6

    Hi there,
    I created a 3mm bleed in the document setup and made sure the artwork filled the bleed area. Then, suddenly, after playing around with some view settings (and maybe some other things that i cant remember), the bleed image content will not show up in neither indesign nor the exported pdf. When I set the view mode to normal, it just shows the bleed content area as white. I see the bleed lines and see that the images are filling the bleed when selecting the images themselves, but the bleed area is completely white and I can´t send my files to the printer as the content will not show up there either.
    Has anyone experienced this and know a fix? I was thinking that maybe the reset preferences would help, but I´m unsure.
    Grateful for any help
    Lise

    Hi Larry,
    I am in Normal mode and yes, the W shortcut toggle works.

  • Updating TOC in INDESIGN CS6

  • Photoshop images with spot channels in Indesign CS6 (layout question)

    I've got an Indesign CS6 layout that will have a spot varnish when it goes to press. Right now I've got a layout with psd files that have spot channels in them that will be used for the spot varnish.
    My question is, in Indesign when I'm laying this out should I have one layer with all the psd artwork (with no spot channels) and then a layer on top of that with the psd files with the psd layers turned off with the spot channel showing? I want to make this easy to print in the office so by doing it this way I could just turn the spot layer off and print.
    Will this work for the printer?
    layer 1 psd files with no spot channels
    layer 2 psd files with photoshop layers turned off with the spot channel showing

    Besides the obvious extra work of tracking 2 images, there would be potential problems if the images needs to be scaled and moved, and you would have to assume people downstream would know what's going on—should the layer be on or off?
    I would double check with the current printer—they should know the only way to view a spot is via Sep or Output preview by turning CMYK off—magenta could just as easily be process as  spot.
    Take a closer look at the Alias method. Here it is with your magenta defined SPOT VARNISH.
    With SPOT VARNISH set as No Alias in Ink Manager and with Overprint turned on:
    And with an additional spot color defined as white named CLEAR VARNISH. When you need to print in house alias SPOT VARNISH to CLEAR VARNISH and check Simulate Overprint in the Print dialog. You can get to Ink Manger via the Print>Output dialog or Swatches panel:
    All you have to do is delete the CLEAR VARNISH before sending the job to the printer or exporting

  • Images in InDesign CS6 tables

    In InDesign CS6 is there a way to define tables cells to images instead of text (like you can in QXP). My aim is to import images into cell, but I want them to fill the full cell size.

    Sorry - InDesign doesn't offer that function - you'd have to set that up manually.
    Give your cell 0 padding all around.
    Get the measurement for your cell
    Create a graphic frame that size.
    And cut and paste it into the cell.

  • Trouble with re-sizing images/textboxes InDesign CS6

    Has anyone had any problems re-sizing images or text boxes in InDesign CS6?
    I have been doing it for months by selecting the corners and dragging them in or out but suddenly it's stopped working. The arrow no longer changes to a double arrow when I hover over the corner and all I can see is an hourglass when I hover over any type of frame.
    I can resize images only be changing their percentage in the transform objects -> scale options.
    I tried re-setting my preferences and it didn't help.
    Please advise me if there is something else I can do. 

    Tried that and it didn't help.
    The only thing I can think of is that there is something wrong or slow with my remote desktop connection which is affecting functionality. No one else seems to have had this problem.
    Thanks for your effort though.

  • Incorrect images from .indb file export to ePub in Indesign CS6

    I am having problems exporting images to ePub and get a different result from the same file depending on whether I export directly from the .indd file or from the .indb file.
    When I export to ePub from the individual chapter (.indd) file, everything is fine and the images appear in the correct locations where they have been anchored.
    When I export via the book  (.indb) file, images are being replaced with the incorrect file in the resulting ePub.
    Looking at the HTML, it seems not all images are being exported from the .indb file and when the image is missing, Indesign is substituting the next available image from the alphabetical list in the images folder so I'm getting incorrect images peppered throughout the book.
    Any idea where I've gone wrong and how to fix it? I've produced several ePubs with images and never come across this before.
    More details on how I've set up the files and any other info I think might be relevant below if needed.
    - I'm using Indesign CS6 (8.0.1)
    - I'm producing an 11 chapter book.
    - Each chapter is a separate .indd file for ease of editing.
    - These 11 files have been added to an .indb file for export to ePub.
    - Images are all anchored to their captions within the text.
    - On Export to ePub settings for images I have selected to insert a page break before the image and that settings apply to anchopred objects.
    Nothing else is selected (I don't want to preserve appearance from layout.)
    - I'm using the Articles panel feature for order of content.
    - In the original file supplied, the images were placed as .tiff images. I saved them to jpeg and relinked them using the "relink to folder" and "match same file but this extension" options.
    - No links are flagged as missing.
    Any help much appreciated.

    The solution points to how, it appears, the book panel export is functioning: each file exports a set of tags referenced to itself; file01 adds a "1" to its tags, and so forth. What I was able to do was use a file referencing all of the tags in the style suite in two ways:
    first, I exported to an epub the single file, creating a fairly clean CSS, which I then extracted and renamed;
    then, making certain that file was the "source" file in the book panel, I mapped for export all of the tags, being careful to be certain each tag/class combo was same as in renamed clean CSS;
    I synchronized the whole shebang;
    I exported to epub, adding my clean CSS as an external style sheet, selecting only "include embeddable fonts".
    Bingo!

  • High quality images in indesign CS6 get pixelated

    I have been using indesign CS6 for a while now. Recently, when I place some images into a document, they are pixelated. They are high quality images with a high resolution. Even when I shrink it down considerably to fit in the document, it still gets pixelated. I have "view High Quality" checked & the image prints pixelated as well. When I preview the image, it looks fine. Any ideas?

    Can you post a screen shot of the image placed on ID to have an idea of what you're looking at? If possible can you share a sample image via dropbox?

  • Imported image's position moves when updated in Indesign CS6. Why??

    After modifying an imported image from illustrator, the imported image's position moves within the frame of Indesign CS6 when the link is updated.

    You have not provided any relevant information, so nobody can know. you can simply have added content that expands the bounding box. Well, whatever, ask in the relevant forums and be much more specific.

  • Invert image in InDesign CS6

    How can I invert (make a negative image) a Tiff (or JPG) image within Indesign CS6?
    This can be done in Photoshop, but I don't want to keep swapping applications or have to make and save a new (negative) image in Photoshop and then import into Indesign.
    This was so easy in Quark years ago!
    Thanks!

    Set the fill color of the rectangle holding your image to Black, and the fill color of the image itself (select with the white arrow) to Paper.
    This will only work on grayscale and black-and-white images; then again, those are the only logical candidates to make negative.
    In case "it is not working": there is a difference between a full color image containing only gray pixels and a real grayscale image. The former cannot be changed in ID, the latter can.

  • Image Placed into InDesign CS6 appears reversed/missing

    I am using InDesign CS6 on Windows 7, 64-bit.
    I have worked in InDesign off and on for the past three years and have never experienced this problem before. I have always placed images into InDesign with no problem and now I have this *one* image that won't place correctly, after placing two images in the same fashion.
    The original image (JPEG) was opened in Photoshop CS6. I removed the background. Changed to CMYK. Saved as .TIFF, preserved as transparency. Then placed in InDesign.
    It either shows up "Reversed", like this (no transparency when saving as a TIFF in Photoshop first):
    Or just kinda outlined, like this (saving as a TIFF with a transparency in Photoshop first):
    I can't see the image. It prints this way, too.
    I've tried other images, they are all fine. I always place TIFFs with no problem, so I'm really stumped here.
    I've tried placing as a .PSD, .EPS and .TIFF and nothing works. The two other images to the left of the weird one were placed in the same way with no problems.
    Any ideas?

    OMG. THAT WORKED. I have lost two hours of my life trying to figure that out. I am forever thankful to you!!!
    Here's the settings that WORKED:

  • InDesign CS6 and OpenGL 1.5 / image frames grey out in INDML

    Hi everyone,
    I work for a non-profit and I just upgraded to InDesign CS6 on my (signifcantly more robust) machine. Now thier (significantly wimpier) machine needs to be upgraded too as we send INDD files back and forth on a monthly basis, and both sides do edits to the file. The INDML file I export out of CS6 is greying out many of the linked photos (but not all) when they read the INDML file in with CS4.
    Two things:
    1) Upgrading the slower machine to CS6 is the place, but the hitch is that computer has a graphics card that is only OPENGL 1.5 capabale (GMA X3100). The CS6 specs state you need a card that supports OPENGL 2.0. We can't afford to replace the computer, so: I wouldn't dream of running photoshop CS6 on this old machine, but could InDesign CS6 function on OPENGL 1.5?
    2) Alternatively, why are only some of the pictures greying out in the INDML file? Can I fix this CS6 > CS4 issue without upgrading to CS6?
    Help! Thanks!

    The system requirements for stand-alone ID don't mention OpenGL at all. You might want to download a trial and see how it runs.
    .idml does not include any link previews (that's one of the main reasons the file is so compact). Images that are showing up on the other end must be accessible so that ID can regenerate the previews.

  • InDesign CS6 ePub. TOC is not linked

    Hello
    using InDesign CS6 8.0.2
    created the TOC and inserted at the begin of the book
    exporting as ePub 2.0.1 the inserted TOC is not linked to the page/chapter so I can't click on it to navigate the ebook.
    What can I check?

    Hi,
    Table of Contents if placed in InDesign is treated like any other story and is exported just like another text frame. This behavior is improved in InDesign CC and the TOC links are now intact in exported EPUB. All that is required is to check the option "Make text anchor in source paragraph" in Table of Contents dialog (this option was added in CC version) while creating TOC.
    If you are looking for creating navigational TOC (one which is not placed in ID and is available in EPUB) in InDesign CS6, it can be created by selecting the TOC style from the TOC style dropdown available in EPUB Export Options dialog.
    Please let me know if there are queries. I would be glad to assist you!
