Newbie to cs4 InDesign --quick questions...

I'm trying to upgrade from PM to indesign, finally. Going through the learning curve, and taking as many video instructions I can. Quickly though... Printing... alot of my documents have PMS colors, but when I go to print, I only see RGB selections or CMYk--I want it to print to my color laser as my pm documents did. What do I have to select? Also, I'm getting errors from my standard black and white laser/postscript printer, all of sudden with indesign. Never happened with pm7. What gives?
Also where is the color swatch area? I find it under view, but all I'm seeing is rgb or greyscale selections, where is selecting pms colors, or the regular colors in the document?? I saw it once, and now it is gone.
Ok, how do you get to the styles and master pages quickly?
Most important two items... what is the keyboard shortcut to zoom? I used to right click and it would come up, now sometimes it does and doesn't. Arghhh...Also, how do you totally view the page without outlines of text blocks, frames, and guides??? I just want to see the page, no STUFF.
Thanks so much. happy new year.

There is, of course, no good reason to use Pantone spot colors if the output is going to be on your color laser, which has no capability to actually print spot colors. If it isn't postscript, your best bet is to define colors as RGB and let the printer do the color conversion internally. If you send a non-postscript printer CMYK numbers it will first convert them to RGB, then back to CMYK using the internal tables, and you will get color shifting.
If the printer is postscript, choose composite CMYK as the output color in the print dialog, if not choose Composite RGB.
If you have colors in the document for which there are not yet swatches, and you want to add them to the swatches collection, select add unnamed colors from the flyout menu. You can also mix your own custom colors in the color panel and add those. From the panel flyout you can choose CMYK or RGB sliders.
Another useful default shortcut for the zoom tool is Ctrl + Spacebar which gives you the tool temporarily, add the Alt key for zooming out. Double-click the hand tool to fit the spread in the window, double-click the zoom tool for "100%" which isn't really, but depends on your monitor size and resolution. Any keyboard shortcut can be changed to suit your style, and more added, under Edit > Keyboard shortcuts...
You should also look at Quick Apply as a way to get to styles quickly.
You might want to download the PDF version of the help files to read up on this basic stuff, or take a book out of the library (Sandee Cohen's Visual QuickStart is popular). A couple of hours reading now will save you a lot of frustration down the road.

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended quick question

    Hello,
    My question is simple so I'll keep it brief. I'm able to buy Photoshop CS4 Extended via the University I go to, but I would only use the photography features. Does Photoshop CS4 extended work the same way Photoshop CS4 does in that regard, but with just more advanced features for video etc?
    In other words, will Photoshop CS4 extended work the same was as Photoshop CS4 would with my photos?

  • Quick question re: Media Management

    Hey..
    quick question from a newbie.
    quick timeline.
    I just finished producing a 40 minute corporate video, and its done (my first video) everything is still on my 2nd drive (projects, footage, graphics and everything...
    I've already made my client 500 DVD's after using compressor.
    Now this project is currently still taking up more then half of my hardrive. I want to get rid of everything but still cover my behind in case down the road, they need more. or they want to add to it and such.
    so my question is...
    in addition to backing up to tape and keeping the compressed files on my computer..
    If I export using Quicktime movie at the same settings of my final sequence. can I delete everything else? AS long as I keep the QT movie on my computer, is that just as good as the original project? am I able to edit from that in the future if I need to or if i need to throw it into compressor to make streaming video for the web? Is there any generation loss with that?
    I know thats more then 1 question.. any help would be awesome... you guys rock! and thanks in advance

    If you export a quicktime movie you create a "whole" video. In other words, your transitions, clips and audio will essentiall become one long clip. You will not longer be able to eliminate music from voice for example. It will become one long track. You won't be able to take out transitions such as dissolves or wipes without taking a hunk of video on either side.
    Best to delete your media and save your project and tapes. You can re-digitize later. Or buy a cheap hard drive and store it there.

  • Report Generation Toolkit Error Quick Question

    Hi,
         I created the most awesome LabVIEW report ever at my desk using a trial version of the RGT and Office 2003.  I took this to my production machine and ")@#(&%(*#^%()^!!!"  The production machine has office 2007 and a fully licensed version of the RGT.  Both machines have LabVIEW 8.6.0.  I've read all the stuff about these errors and something about classes and dll's and whatnot's.  So my quick question, is:  Instead of matching the versions of Microsoft Office as recommended, can I just rewrite from scratch the VI that creates this world's most awesome LabVIEW report on the production machine to create the same effect? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi 
    Quick Answer: Probably
    Slower answer: Microsoft changed a lot of things behind the scenes in Office 2007, but the Report Generation toolkit version 1.1.3 supports Office 2007 so you should be good to go. Depends on what functions are included in your VI. Liek the read me says "Several default settings in Microsoft Office 2007 differ slightly from previous versions. Reports you generate using Office 2007 might look different than reports you generate from other versions of Office because font sizes, cell sizes, and so on, differ."

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

    Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
    1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
    2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
    3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
    4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
    If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
    This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
    To reproduce
    Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
    "Solution"
    The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
    Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
    Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
    This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
    Untested in Panther or before and
    Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
    Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

    In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
    You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
    http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
    Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
    (Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

  • Two quick questions about Library after moving beginning on a new computer

    Hi there,
    I just moved from Windows to Mac, meaning I had to move my iTunes library from the old PC to my new MBA.
    Just a couple of quick questions.
    1. When I started iTunes on my new Mac, in the preferences I directed the media folder to the folder with all my itunes music/podcasts etc, and then I imported the Library XML file.  Is this incorrect? Should I have imported a different file? Should I have used the itl file instead? 
    If so, should I delete the library and start again?  (if this is the case, please suggest the best way of doing this without affecting my media)
    - a kind of sub-question to this one:  some of the media files arent showing up in the iTunes library, but they are in the media folder on the ext HDD.  Is there a way I can find out which ones havent been recognized by iTunes?  Whats the best way of getting them in to my library?
    2. Pretty much half of my podcasts have not been loaded in the new iTunes.  The ones that havent were ones that I subscribed to on my iPhone, whereas the ones that show up in iTunes were ones I downloaded from iTunes.  When I connect my iPhone and sync it with iTunes, will those podcasts show up in iTunes?  Or is there a risk that they will be deleted from my iPhone?
    Cheers,

    The .xml is lacking some information such as ratings, date added, and play count.  Using the .itl includes this information but cannot be imported using the method you did.
    A complete library is everything in the iTunes folder.  By using the method you did you left the artwork behind in the artwork folder on the other machine.
    Selecting the media folder in preferences does not get iTunes to recognize the media.  All it does is tell iTunes to start storing new media in that location.
    Using the method I outlined nothing will be missed (with the exception of WMA) because you aren't rebuilding your library, you are using the one that already exists.
    You don't have to re-copy everything as long as you get the stuff you missed and re-assemble it all as it was before except not on the Mac.

  • CS4 InDesign not printing correctly on HP1320 LaserJet for 2-sided booklets

    I'm trying to print chapters in a book, using 2-sided printing from CS4 InDesign (V 6.0.4) to an HP1320 LaserJet printer using an iMac computer. This used to work with CS InDesign (V 3.0.1) using a Dell PC and the same printer. The page prints on both sides, but is limited to 8.5 inches of the 11 in side.  [My pages are 5 1/2 by 8 1/2 with two pages on one side of the page; when finished, the book is 5 1/2" by 8.5".] I've tried lots of combinations of page orientation in both the InDesign File/Print Booklet/Print Settings.../Setup and in the File/Print Booklet/Print Settings.../Printer... but nothing seems to solve this. Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    You need to be sure the print dialog is set up to print the pages in landscape orientation.

      I'd be happy to try. Here are the steps I take, but you should realize that I've done this so many times over the past several days (up to a couple of weeks) that I try different things each time.
      I've got a couple of book projects that use similar formats. One is a textbook and the second is a daily log I keep (not always "daily"). Both are printed and bound to become books that are on the order of 400 to 500 pages and are 8.5" by 5.5" in size.  So, I have a file I want to print and I want it to come out with side-by-side 5.5 x 8.5" pages (two on each side of an 8 1/2 by 11 inch sheet of paper (i.e., two sided printing).
      In InDesign, I click on File, Print Booklet..., and here is what the window looks like: [see attached file "Screen shot 2009-12-02 at 5.51.44 PM.pgn.]
      To get it to show "Booklet Type: 2-up Saddle Stitch," I had to click on "Print Settings" at the bottom and select "Setup" and then "Orientation: landscape (2nd from the left on the choice of four orientations)."  I also usually go to "Page Setup..." and make sure I chose "Orientation: landscape."
      Then I go to the "Printer..." button at the bottom of the "Print" window and select things so it looks like this:  [see attached file "Screen shot 2009-12-02 at 5.57.44 PM.pgn.]
      To get this, I had to click on the "Layout" option and then "Booklet Printing." That automatically selected "Two-Sided" printing.
      As far as choices go, I think that is it.
      The page that printed most recently with those settings came out with four (not two) pages on each side of the page. Further, the four pages that printed on the back side of the sheet of paper were upside down relative to those on the front side. This may be the result of using "2-up Saddle Stitch" but I'm not sure of that.
      But here is the problem that has really been bugging me: the pages on one side of the paper don't go as far toward the margin as they should. Here is one example of low-res pictures of the front of the page that printed.
      The page shows two full "pages" along the left top and right top, but along the left and right bottom pages, only about half of the pages printed.  The back side of the sheet of paper was similar, with only half of the "pages" showing for two of the four pages on this side.
      So, I hope this is enough information for you. I'd be happy to provide more if needed. And thank you for even attempting to help. I've been struggling with this issue for a couple of weeks (I'm retired, so I sure don't spend full time on it, but I sure have spent hours at it, all to no avail).

  • Quick question re select-options

    Hi
    I am relatively new to ABAP but have a quick question:
    I need to create a select-options which does the following:
    1. Allows ONLY "equals" signs
    2. Disallows intervals
    3. Disallows the use of ranges in the multiple selection box.
    4. Allows multiple individual selections.
    I can achieve most using the following:
    select-options s_knvh for knvh-kunnr no intervals.
    However, this still allows ranges using the multiple selection box, and also allows the "not equal to" option.
    Adding the "no-extension" syntax simply removes my ability to use multiple individual entries.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Jon

    Use this FM.

  • A quick question about WebDynpro SLD and R/3 with concurrent users

    Hello ,
    I have a very quick question about Webdynpros and SLD connecting to an R/3 system, when you configure a webdynpro to connect to an R/3 system using SLD, you configure a user name and password from the R/3  for the SLD to use. What I would like to know is when I have concurrent users of my webdynpro, how can I know what one user did in R/3 and what another user did? Is there a way for the users of the web dynpro to use their R/3 credentials so SLD can access the R/3? Like dynamically configuring the SLD for each user?
    - I would like to avoid leaving their their passwords open in the code ( configuring two variable to get the users username and password and use these variables as JCO username and password )
    Thanks Ubergeeks,
    Guy

    Hi Guy
    You will have to use Single Sign On to achieve this. In the destination you have defined to connect to R/3 , there is an option to 'useSSO' instead of userid and password. This will ensure that calls to R/3 will be with the userid that has logged into WAS. You wont need to pass any passwords because  a login ticket is generated from WAS and passed on to R/3. The userid is derived from this ticket.
    For this to happen you will have to maintain a trust relation ship between R/3 and your WAS ,there is detailed documentation of this in help files. Configuration is very straight forward and is easy to perform

  • QUICK QUESTION ABOUT PORTS

    Hi, I have a quick question about port forwarding/mapping. My question, lets say I am running MSN messenger, who's ports are 6880-6900. But lets say I am running a torrent application or something else that requires those ports. If both applications were running at the same time, would this cause interference with them on the same ports or now. Thanks
    Nathan

    Normally, only one application can listen to a specific port number at a time. If MSN is grabbing those 21 ports then your torrent app won't be able to run.
    However, most apps don't work that way - even if they use multiple ports, they don't use them all at the same time, so MSN might use 6880 when it starts up, leaving the others open for other applications to use if needed.
    Only experimentation will answer that one.

  • 2 Quick Question

    Hello - I'm pretty new to Motion and have 2 quick questions:
    1) If you've got a bunch of keyframes on a timeline and want to make the entire sequence longer - is there a way to just pull the last frame out and have it automatically interpolate the keyframes in between so that it keeps the same timing and everything... it just makes the whole sequence take longer?
    2) On the same timeline with a bunch of keyframes, can you apply one long Interpolation (ala "Ease Out") to the entire thing from A-Z so that the whole sequence eases out rather than just keyframe to keyframe?
    Thanks!!
    Jason

    Heya,
    1. If you're asking if you have something like the "roving" keyframes in AE...well, kinda. Keyframes on footage, shapes, generators, particles, replicators—objects that create an image—don't seem to scale. But keyframes on secondary objects like behaviors and filters do scale.
    2. Very easy: go into the Keyframe Editor and click on the animation state icon/menu for the parameter you want to change. The icon/menu is the last column after the parameter's value in the left-hand side of the Keyframe Editor. If you pick an interpolation type in that menu, it applies it to all keyframes in that particular curve. It's also the same place where you can set the before/after extrapolation, like ping-pong, progressive, etc.

  • CS4 Indesign Printing issues

    Hi, We have a new Mac Pro Tower we just purchased with Snow Leopard 10.6.7. We are using Adobe Indesign CS4 Version 6.0.6. I have an Indesign project that I need to print to our Canon ImagePress C1 with a fiery. I go to File>Print, then it shows it's kind of preparing it to be sent to our printer. After about 30 seconds the printer window pops up and it says: spooling for about another 30 seconds and then the printer puts this job on pause. Below is the console logs from this users machine: Where you see "username" I removed the person's name for security.

    This canon printer has worked seamlessly when we had Leopard 10.5 using CS4. It's only been since we received the new Mac Pro Tower. The Canon printer has a Fiery attached and we use the latest driver for that Fiery. All the images in this file are .tiff's. The user does have Pre-Flight on and the Print Preset: Custom, Printer: Canon Color Printer, PPD: Canon iPR Server T1 Ver.1.0. I set up the printer in the Print & Fax Dialog using the IP address, with LPD Protocol, Queue name blank (as we never had to really use one in the past). and Print Using the iPR Server T1 driver. Rebooted the Mac, ran disk utility from the CD. I have been working on this issue for a couple of days now and found many troubleshooting tips on the internet but none have worked. Is there something in the new OS X Snow Leopard that is not working with CS4 Indesign now? Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thank you!

    What fonts are you using? Are they PS Type1 by any chance? The update to 10.6.7 has introduced some problems with the older Type 1 fonts. Do a Google search for Mac 10.6.7, Type 1 font problem to see some discussions.

  • CS4 InDesign Server hangs

    I've ran into a problem where the my CS4 InDesign Server hangs. 
    I'm adding pages dynamically using the JAVA API.  Basically I go through all the content, check to see if I've reached the ParagraphStyle that indicates the "end" of the document.  If not, I add a page, flow the content into a text frame on that page & check if I've reached the end.  If not I add another page.  And so on until I finally reach the end. But it ends up hanging while attempting to do this.  What's odd, it works the first 5-10 times, but it takes longer and longer each time it adds a page until around the 10th page or so, it completely stops.  I'm using the "duplicate(OptLocationOptionsEnum arg0, OptVariableType arg1)" method on the com.adobe.ids.layout.Page object.
    Any ideas?  I can provide sample code if it would help.

    Hi Chandi,
          If Microsoft fix is not working or it is too old to apply then go for manual process i.e.;
          In the Microsoft KB article follow this :-
         Services that use the local system account to log on to a Windows Server 2003-based computer start if the Allow service to interact with desktop
         option is turned on. To turn this option on, follow these steps:
    In the Services tool, click the service that you want to start, and then click Properties.
    Right-click the Log On tab, and then click to select the Allow service to interact with desktop check box.

  • Quick Question: When to use ( ) and when to use [ ] and why the ( *)

    Hi all,
    A quick question that i'm sure is very simple but is slightly confusing me. I've just started trying to learn Objective-C and am a little confused by ( ) and [ ].
    I get that you use the [ ] brackets when you want something specific from an object, i.e.
    [ textField textColor ]
    and that you use ( ) brackets for things like:
    if ( x == y) {
    But I get confused when I see things like:
    NSLog(@"some text here");
    Why does that get ( ) brackets and why is it not [ ].
    Also another point of confusion, creating methods... Why are some methods done like:
    - (void)awakeFromNib
    And others done like (with the additional "*" added):
    - (NSString *)stringvalue
    As I said, I'm sure this is very simple and obvious, but it is confusing me slightly.
    Thanks in advance!

    Adam:
    As you already know, square brackets are used to send a message to an object, so if a object like myObject implements the method -doSomething, you can call it with:
    \[myObject doSomething\];
    The other use square for brackets have is to index C-style arrays, such as:
    aValue = anArray\[10\]; // Get the 10-element of an array
    However, because C-style arrays are rarely used in Cocoa applications (use NSArray instead) you will not see this situation often.
    Parenthesis in expressions are used to group and prioritize, such as:
    x = 10 * (3 + 5); // x = 80
    If () statements use it to delimit the test expression. Same with while (). for () uses it to enclose the limits and increment statements, etc.
    The other important use of parenthesis is in calling a C function:
    result = foo(3);
    means that you are calling the function named foo with the argument 3, and storing the the return value in the variable 'result'. This is different from a message because a C function is not a method of an object. They exist independently of any objects. NSLog() is a function defined within Cocoa but it is not a method. So, you call it with the traditional C function call syntax. Cocoa defines other functions like NSStringFromRect(), which takes an NSRect as argument and returns a pointer to an NSString.
    And that leads me to your last question. Some methods return simple types, like int, float, or void (i.e. returns no value). These methods will have prototypes like:
    \- \(void\)returnNothing;
    \- (int)returnInteger;
    Other methods return pointers to types, like:
    \- (int \*)returnPointerToInteger;
    \- (void \*)returnPointerToAnything; // In obj-C one typically uses id instead of void*
    Returning whole objects from methods has problems and it is better to just return a pointer (the address in memory) instead:
    \- (NSString *)makeAString;
    The method above returns a pointer to an NSString rather than the entire object.
    Good luck with your learning,
    Juan-Pablo

  • Hi, I have quick question about use of USEBEAN tag in SP2. When I specify a scope of SESSION for the java bean, it does not keep the values that I set for variable in the bean persistent.Thanks,Sonny

     

    Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
    you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.
