Never seem to have a problem but I do have one question about creating the pdf for press. My printer has mentioned they want their ink limit to be 270 on images out of photoshop. So I created a profile which meets these requirements so my images in photoshop are saved with no more than 270 ink limit. Now when I create my pdf out of Indesign what do I select in the 3 windows: Color conversion Destination Profile inclusion policy. I do book covers where each series must match. I'm worried if I select a wrong setting it will change the colours. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks once again for valuable info on your site. jo I create pdfs directly out of indesign rather than distill these days.
