[. . . ] Adobe InDesign Help Using Help Using Help | Contents | Index Back 1 Using Help About online Help Adobe Systems, Inc. provides complete documentation in the Adobe PDF Help system. The Help system includes information on all the tools, commands, and features for both Windows and Mac OS. The PDF format is designed for easy navigation online, and support for third-party screen readers compatible with Windows. [. . . ] Profile If Use Embedded is selected, leave this option unchanged. Otherwise, choose a color source profile that matches the gamut of the device or software used to create the graphic. This profile enables InDesign to properly translate its color to the gamut of the output device. (See "Obtaining, installing, and updating color profiles" on page 351. ) Rendering Intent Choose a method for scaling the color range of the graphic to the color range of the output device. Typically, you'll choose Perceptual (Images), because it accurately represents colors in photographs. The Saturation (Graphics), Relative Colorimetric, and Absolute Colorimetric options are better for areas of solid color, and do not reproduce photographs well. For a description of each Intent option, see ""About color management" on page 337. Adobe Illustrator (. AI) Artwork in Adobe Illustrator 5. 5 and later can be placed directly into an InDesign layout. When you place an Illustrator 9. 0 and later graphic using the Show Import Options dialog box, the options are identical to those for PDF files; see "Placing a PDF file" on page 230. When you place an Illustrator 5. 5­8. 0 graphic, the options are identical to those for EPS files; see "EPS (. EPS)" on page 226. If an Adobe Illustrator version 9. 0 and later file contains transparent objects, the transparency is preserved and will allow underlying artwork to show through. Using Help | Contents | Index Back 225 Adobe InDesign Help Importing, Exporting, and Managing Graphics Using Help | Contents | Index Back 226 Adobe Photoshop (. PSD) You can place Adobe Photoshop 4. 0 and later images directly into a layout. When a Photoshop file is placed in a document, all layers and layer masks are automatically flattened. These changes affect the file inside the InDesign document only--the original Photoshop file is not altered. If you save paths, masks, or alpha channels in a Photoshop file, InDesign can use them to remove backgrounds, or to wrap text around graphics. Graphics that contain paths, masks, or alpha channels act as transparent objects when imported and interact only where the background is transparent; see "Working with clipping paths" on page 261 and "Wrapping text around objects" on page 101. If you embedded an ICC color management profile in an Adobe Photoshop image, InDesign automatically reads the embedded profile. You can override the embedded profile while you're importing a file by selecting Enable Color Settings in the Import Image dialog box. You can also override this profile after you import the file, by choosing Object > Image Color Settings. These actions will not remove or alter the profile embedded in the Photoshop image. BMP (. BMP) BMP is the standard Windows bitmap image format on DOS and Windows-compatible computers. However, BMP does not support CMYK, and its color support is limited to 1, 4, 8, or 24 bits. It is less than ideal for commercially printed or online documents, and it is not supported by Web browsers. BMP graphics can provide acceptable quality when printed on low-resolution or non-PostScript printers. DCS (. DCS) Desktop Color Separations (DCS), developed by Quark, is a version of the standard EPS format.
