When exporting document to Package in InDesign, bleeds disappear!
I've tried to export to PDF, and the bleeds and crop marks come out just fine. But when I try to export to package, I get this:
Once again, I have the document setup to bleed at 5mm on all sides and you can even see the red line in the background of the screenshot which indicates the bleed area (the outer red line). Why are they not coming up in package settings? Using InDesign CS6 on Windows 8. Can anyone please help?
When I open the packaged file, in the instructions it still says bleed is missing (set to 0), but the InDesign file opens with correct bleed settings (5mm).

Loosing images when exporting to pdf file from Indesign?
I didn't have this problem before, however as I started using the master page presets some of the pages are not saving properly to pdf version. The master sheets doesnt show up on some of the pages but shows up on others.
Does anyone know why that is?It does not show in preview.
It shows in the indesign file, but not in preview. The stuff that disappears are from the master page, they show on some pages but not on others. Which is very strange.
I have taken more shots.
Master F sheet is applied for this page.
The other page i posted previously started working when I applied a different master sheet over it. -
Building linkable navigation within an indesign document when exporting to pdf
I'm working in InDesign CS3 and wondering if there is a way to create a linkable navigation in the program when exporting it to pdf. Also, how, if its possible, do I build an html file out of an InDesign document or exported from ID as a pdf?
ID CS3 has an export to crossmedia xml for DreamWeaver option, but you need to edit the result in a html editor like DreamWeaver to clean it up and get a better result. You will never be able to get a page in html that looks exactly the same as in ID though unless you provide a pdf-page for download. You also do not have control of how a pdf on the web is shown for the user in his/her browser as that setting for that is done by the user, not by the page. Some show it on the page, others have pdfs for download (like me).

When I export documents as a PDF in Indesign the fonts appear as squares. This has started happening since I updated my operating system to 10.9.4 on my iMac.
Apple Mail uses Apple's own PDF viewer, and it's ... well, let's be friendly and say not really up to par. Don't use it for anything else than ascertaining there is *something* in your mail. Then use the free Adobe Reader to view your PDF.
See this recent thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4526583 -
My whole document comes out as low res when I export to PDF, even the indesign file also now low res. Tried changing display performance, but that's not helping.
Are your links up to date? What settings did you use?

Indesign Crashes when exporting PDF
Hi,
We are experiencing an issue when exporting an .indd file as .pdf. The process gets as far as a certain page (8 out of 13) and then crashes when reading a pdf image from that page. It does one of two things - it crashes or displays an 'out of memory' message. We had task manager running alongside the program to check memory usage and there are no major spikes during the export process (it doesn't even hit 80%)
- We can export every other page in the document except this one
- The export works without marks & bleeds enabled (not really sure of the terminology so I do apologise)
The document is going off to print so the pdf image has to be of high resolution. Does anyone have any ideas as to how we can get around this issue?
The INdesign package is CS4 (32bit) and the pc has 4GB of RAM
Any assistance would be much appreciatedFriends I'm reading all the posts, but I have the same problem. My Indesign crashes exporting a document of 60 pages into pdf.
Can anybody help me please? The next week I have to deliver the project. Thank you!

SWF animations not working properly when exported as PDF from InDesign
I'm using InDesign CS5 and have created a document that I want to add interactivity and animations to. I've created buttons and page destionations, etc, which all work perfectly when exported to a PDF but the simple animation that I wanted to include don't work. The animations have been created in InDesign then selection exported as a SWF file and then imported and placed in InDesign and then exported as an interactive PDF where the animations either don't work, haven't been picked up or don not work as they should. What am I doing wrong, how do I get the animations to work correctly?

TOC in PDF does not include Link OBJR tags when exported from InDesign
I'm using InDesign CS6 to export a book file to a tagged PDF. When I run the accessibility checker in Acrobat 9, I get errors about items not being contained in the Structure tree. These missing items are links for the TOC and the Index page numbers. When I look at the tags, the Link OBJR tag is missing for these elements. I can't possibly manually add them all in. Other links e.g. cross-references, hyperlinks, automatically include these Link OBJR tags when exported. Why does the TOC and Index not do so?
I've asked this question in the InDesign Forum and no one seems to know. If I don't put these tags in, what does that mean for accessibility of the document?
Thanks for your helpGlad you found something that worked. For the future ... I found that if you create the PDF from BOOK and following these steps you can get the hyperlinks to automatically tag. This will work if you are getting editable hyperlink boxes for the TOC -- I find that it is creating these (although I could swear it didn't earlier). Anyway:
1. Select all chapters in the book and create PDF with hyperlinks and bookmarks. Save as TEST.PDF
2. Open the PDF and in the Pages Panel extract the page or pages containing the the TOC from the PDF. Save this as TOCtest.pdf
3. Delete the Tags from the TOCtest.pdf file -- in the Tags Panel, select the Root tag, right click and select delete
4. Select Add Tags to Document to this same file.
5. Examine the tags to see if all the OBJLINKs are tagged. Repeat steps 3 and 4 again (sometimes it doesn't autotag correctly the first time). You may have to manually correct some of the structure -- headings and/or artifacts on these pages.
6. Save again.
7. Go back to the main document TEST.PDF -- delete the TOC page or pages from that document (assuming you didn't when you extracted.)
8. On the pages panel, Insert from file and choose TOCtest.pdf -- insert before the first page.
9. This will bring in the newly tagged TOC and it's tags HOWEVER the tags will be out of order in the tags panel. They will be at the bottom and you will need to find them and MOVE them where they should be.
Still more effort than you should have to but it worked for me.
Not sure how to record a bug with Adobe, but my testing in CS5 shows that this is NOT a new problem. CS5.5 did the same thing for me. -
Packaging an InDesign document with Placed Illustrator Files which contain PLACED GRAPHICS!
I've got an InDesign document 215 pages long. Each page contains a placed Illustrator document... and each Illustrator document contains a placed TIFF.
When I package the InDesign Document the Illustrator files are gathered into the new location, but InDesign does not gather the TIFFs. I need to get this material to the book designer, but relinking 215 pages is going to be a very risky and time consuming process--one that will have to be done OVER and OVER again as the project moves from one location to another. Can anyone recommend a solution? Why doesn't InDesign look for nested files?
Does anybody understand what I'm talking about?
--JayThe reason behind link (.psd in layers) means in the future it can be edited.
If the person receiving to package needs to edit the layers of a PSD placed in an Illustrator file, then yes you would have to manually include the layered PSDs. But if it's just a matter of ensuring full res and color managed output downstream then saving as PDF does that and preserves the links to layered files locally. So if I save as PDF trash a link and reopen the PDF in Illustrator it will look for the link:
If you save as .ai with the links embedded, the users downstream would be able to unembed and edit a flattened version of the placed art. -
Write filename somewhere in a PDF when exporting from InDesign?
Is there a way, when exporting a PDF from InDesign, to somewhere/somehow auto-embed the filename into the resulting PDF? Doesn't need to be "visible" in the job, but needs to be accessible somehow. I'm working with a very difficult client who changes PDF names and then, months later, sends the PDF back with revisions and I have no idea which file the original PDF was created from. I know I can manually enter this information, but I'm looking for a more automated way to do this?
Regards,
Kristin.Put this script into a folder "Startup Scripts" inside your scripts folder. It auto-updates the document metadata every time you save a document. This automatically is saved in an exported PDF.
//InxAfterSafe.jsx
//An InDesign CS3 JavaScript
#targetengine "session"
//Creates a simple event listener.
main();
function main()
var myEventListener1 = app.addEventListener("afterSave", setMetadata, false);
var myEventListener2 = app.addEventListener("afterSaveAs", setMetadata, false);
function setMetadata()
var myFileName = app.activeDocument.name.replace(/\.indd$/i, "");
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.documentTitle = myFileName;
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.copyrightNotice = myFileName;
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.jobName = myFileName; -
Cannot overwrite PDF when exporting to Acrobat from InDesign CS6
When exporting to Acrobat Pro X from InDesign CS6, there are times when I want to overwrite an exising file but I get an error msg that the file is in use (it is not--this even happens when I have closed the file and quit Acrobat) or i don't have permission. In the Info panel at the Finder, i see that "myusername (ME)" does have permission to read and write this file. As a test, I also changed the permissions for Admin and Everyone to Read & Write, but that did not help. I've checked Preferences in both InDesign and Acrobat Pro anc can't find a relevant setting.
To save the file with the same filename as the pre-exisitng PDF, I have to close the pre-exisitng PDF and move it to the trash.
I have no problem overwriting a PDF document from Acrobat. This only happens when I am exporting from ID.
I am on a Mac running the latest version of OSX.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Carol GunnMake sure that the PDF you are trying to overwrite is not selected in your finder. I've found that if it's selected in the finder then the preview tricks Indesign into thinking the file is busy

Objects in InDesign files disappear when exported to PDF (CS5.5)
I have some text that was created to outlines, filled and has a drop shadow applied. When I export the document to pdf, part of the text (the fill) disappears, and all I get is the drop shadow. I tried changing to a non-spot color, I tried removing all attributes, and nothing seems to work! I also tried copying that artwork to the clipboard and pasting it into an Illustrator file (says it is too big to fit the pasteboard, which I verified sizes - and it should fit. I tried copying the paths and pasting them in Photoshop as a smart object... no luck either. What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help!
FYI - in the "Adobe InDesign Component Infirmation" dialogue box I learned all kinds of info - are you looking for something in particular? I learned that the document was created in InDesign version 7.0.4.553 (which is what I think I was using before I updated my InDesign earlier today)
There aren't particular obvious signs, no.
Generally at this point the right way to track this down is to work with a copy of the document, and delete pages or objects in the document until you find the cause of the problem. Then look at it closely, perhaps look at the IDML file, or make it available so we can look at it.
It sounds like you have a workaround, but if you have time, it might worth trying to find the real problem. -
How to solve crash problem when doing "package" with Indesign CS 5.5?
Hello everyone,
I've been having trouble with Indesign CS 5.5 when I use the package tool.
I work with indesign for a long time, create my document files, and when everything is done, finished, i go and do the Package.
But at a certain point it crashes and the file becomes demaged... even the original one i've worked initially!!
This happens everytime...
Does anyone ever had this problem?
Need your help guys?
ThanksThis is not normal behavior. I wonder what is different for you.
If you deselect "Check Links Before Opening Document," you should not be prompted to "Do not Update Links." This suggest you have corrupt preferences. So try:

Vector shapes suddenly looks jagged when exported from InDesign to pdf
I've read several discussions on pdf export topics but none of them seem to solve this issue. I have an indesign document with multiple pages, its both vector shapes, text and pixel graphics. I worked on this for weeks and I exported this document to pdf numerous times and it all looked good every time I did it. All of a sudden I started to get a very bad looking export, just out of the blue the shapes, logos etc got this jagged look and it looks aweful - see my enclosed examples.
I have done nothing to my pdf export setup, InDesign setup or any screen preferances. It's just a mystery to me. It seems to be hurting all my sirculare shapes and not my text in general! Every pixel image / photography exports perfect to pdf. My page display is set to smooth text rendering in my pdf preferences. What's up? What puzzles me is this happened so sudden after numerous fine exports. I'm using InDesign CS6.
This is the O in a logo that's been placed on a page. The right one is what I get when I export to pdf now, the left one is what I used to getJohn, your are very wrong about post #2. I personally had a rendering problem that was all solved by setting the opacity to 99.9% - it was exported horribly but fixed by this operation. You can read other user stories that confirms this too. But this is not the same issue so let's leave it at that. I just wanted to mention it in terms of having jagged exports.
There's been no updates thats been changing the Acrobat settings. Acrobat has a default setting in terms of page display that I haven't changed ever as a matter of fact. I shared that info in case someone asked. I'm not connected to any printer, the file is for screen view and third partie receivers can print if they need to (I'm not connected to any printer at work, there's a no print policy). Watching the corporate identity material look terrible on the screen is hardly something a marketing manager likes to do and I don't wanna be the designer responsible for that. So all I want is to solve this mystery and get things back to how it was just two days ago. As described nothing is changed in terms of technical things AND the same terrible results occur when opening a new indd file with a new vector file and exporting that. So the error is not connected to a spesific document or file.
I remember having export rendering problems of all kinds in CS3, CS4 and CS5, it was all sort of quirky operations I had to do to solve them. Once I actually sat on the phone talking to a technical advisor at Adobe in Ireland while he was trying to explain that this was one of those weak spots of InDesign vs Acrobat. I was emailed a script, if that's not a bugfix I don't know what is. He tried to explain how to embedd the file into the installation setup but the end of the story was a full CS4 MA Collection refund. I'm trying to avoid placing foreign calls this time around and nothing has helped so far. I've been reading endless forum threads different places that describes the problem I have but they never end up with a solution for InDesign CS6 and export routines. It's just a series of errors and questions. I've turned the stone a million times, but all I see is...stone -
InDesign cs6 crashes when exporting objects with drop shadows to interactive PDF
I am using the trial version of InDesign CS6 on a mac OSX 10.7.4 I need to export my document as an interactive PDF. I have found that the export works fine so long as none of the objects within my document have a drop shadow. However, if I add a drop shadow to any object (text, images, or video) InDesign will crash when I try to export. I am adding the drop shadow by selecting the object and then choosing Object > Effects > Drop Shadow. Is there another method I should be using to add the shadow if I want to export to an Interactive PDF?
Hi Peter, thanks for the response. Yes, I have tried creating a new blank project and adding one text object with a drop shadow and then exporting to Interactive PDF, and I experienced the same result. I tried replacing my preferences as you suggested and found that it did not have any affect.
I continued developing my InDesign document without using any drop shadows and began to experience the same type of crashing under two more circumstances. 1. When relinking assets in my Links panel. 2. When exporting to interactive PDF with interactive objects that are being clipped (I get a warning telling me I have clipped objects before I export; when I click export I experience the same crash.) I have tried exporting the same file to a print (non-interactive) PDF and experienced no crashing.
I thought I should mention that I am using a retina display mac book pro with 16GB RAM. Could my graphics cards or the configureation of my machine be causing my issue?
Thanks so much,
