Publish Online Unreadable

I produce a weekly newsletter and 98% of my audience can open it (embedded on website), but there are a few that only see a spinning cursor and never launches. This sounds like an internet connection issue...is there another solution so they can get connected to read it? They can't see the download icon which would be helpful.

Transferred InDesign and nothing works

$

Hello everyone, I am incredibly new to Indesign, so most of everything I see in the program is another language, but unfortunately I need to learn it all fairly quick.

So I took over a person duties which involve indesign while also getting a new PC and putting all the files and programs on it. Well, all the old indesign files are missing links , the table of contents no longer directs you to the page via clicking it , and opening the files that were books, open each chapter separately not being connected at all. How was I supposed to go about putting this all on the new PC so that it worked like it never had moved?

USEFUL INFO

I'm using a windows PC.

And also creative cloud is being blocked.

With the transfer we switched adobe accounts.

 

Thank you all so much !

I'm using InDesign cc 2015 and can't seem to get the hang of appropriately resizing images (ie without making them look short and fat or long and thin) within the frame of a page. Any tips on how I can do this?

Unwanted "Cover Page" in spread

Hi, I'm trying to get the 'cover page' to not be part of my spread.

I have tried: changing the settings when I create a new document, including changing the default, creating a new spread and deleting one, deleting all ID preferences. Still, I'm seeing "cover page" in my "pages" panel.

 

Having it there is messing up my numbering and I don't need it.

 

Can anyone help?

 

I'm using InDesign through CC and on Windows 10.

Can't change gutter width on master pages

$

I've just upgraded to 2015.4 and I'm setting up a new 20 page report document from scratch.

 

I need to set up several master pages and when I go edit the master and go to Layout > Margins and Columns, click the up/down arrows on the gutter width doesn't change. I can change, column number, margins, enable layout Layout Adjustment, but Gutter does nothing. Lock Column Guides is unticked.

 

As a temporary compromise, I've placed text boxes with columns on the masters, but I've used this feature for 10 years and it's really frustrating when core features get broken with updates.

Problems printing Futura Bold

Hi I have just had my computer upgraded and I'm running a current version of indesign.

 

Ive opened a document from previous version, all looks fine on screen, but when I print it (previously no problems) Futura Bold (and version of it such as Bold Oblique) default print. Now here is the strange part, if I change the horizontal width of the font, as little as 99% it prints correctly!

Also exporting the file as a PDF  it looks and prints correctly!!

I use and have used this font a lot so changing the width on every document is just out of the question.

Its got be stumped.... any ideas people??

 

Thanks heaps!

Can't move objects or text boxes in inDesign CC

$

I was working on an inDesign document with no problem, and suddenly I was unable to move any objects or text boxes with the selection tools. I could only move them using my arrow keys. The objects are not locked and are not on a locked layer. This issue is now occurring in all my other documents, and creating a new document didn't help.

 

I found this discussion thread (Why can't I move objects and text boxes in Indesign CS5.5?), suggesting that I "trash" my inDesign preferences. I did that, and it didn't fix the problem. I also uninstalled, then re-installed inDesign, but that did not fix the problem either. I'm using a Mac OS X version 10.9.5.

 

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Coloured bitmap tiff images shows only in black

I just upgraded to the latest version of InDesign (2015.4) and when I opened a document I created minutes before the tiff files I had coloured blue and white are black. When I export the file as a PDF the tiffs look fine. I haven't done any changes on the programs preferences, just opened up the file.

 

I am using InDesign on a late 2013, 27" Imac with OSX 10.10.5

 

Screen grab from InDesign:

When exported as PDF:

Would really appreciate help on the annoying matter.

Bug: Indesign defaults to High Quality viewing

$
0
0

I just downloaded the latest Indesign update, and when I open files it defaults to 'High Quality' view instead of 'Typical' view like it used to. I work with files that have very high res imagery and I have to sit and wait for every image to load (at High Quality viewing) before I can do anything, which kills my efficiency. When I try adjusting the preferences to 'Typical' viewing, it doesn't stick. Please fix this bug Adobe.

Creating a "flip book" from InDesign

$

Hi all! I have a client who wanted a "flip book" of a brochure I created for him in InDesign. I did some research, and figured out how to export it as an swf file. This does exactly what he wants it to do. But... in looking how to get it online, I read that swf files are passé. So... how do I create a "flip book" (so it looks like you're turning the pages of a book) without using SWF files from InDesign???

 

Thanks.
