Hey Gurus of all Things Graphix: I've got a client working on his catalog file. ID CS1, Mac OSX.4. He opened up his file this morning and all the work he's...
Hi timm I'm sure this is too rudimentary to be the answer, but just to cover the bases. Did he increment his saves and then accidentally open an earlier...
Dear Sharon: Always good to start with the basics! (Like the client who couldn't copy fonts to her diskette--because I told her to drag them with her mouse to...
Maybe the "Recovered InD Files" folder is in a customized location?? Just grabbing at straws, but the situation sounds grim. -- Tom Lewis San Diego Printers ...
Does anyone know if there is a way to create a fill pattern (i.e., stripes or polka dots) in InD? I couldn't find anything in the InD help. -- Jenni Mecham ...

I am designing an invitation and the page is going to be cut out by the printer in the unique shape of my design. I went looking through all my InDesign books...
... Since this is a catalog, I have to ask how the data was imported because InDesign has a preference setting that LINKS the information "placed" from text...
Well it will be printed on a piece of rectangular paper then die cut, so don't sweat it.* As a printer we would want the document set to size, with a little...
You page can only be square or rectangular. For other shapes: 1)set your page size to the largest dimensions for width and height 2) then create a die line for...
You just need to specify a die cut. Preferably a vector one. I usually create a separate, locked and non-printing layer that contains the die-cut shape with a...
One more thought: If you are using a special trim and not die cutting the shape, then instead of a die line, I would set up a slug area on the page, place trim...
Nope, he's the only guy working that department. He's the only Mac in a sea of PC's so the other employees are stumped and stunned by the OS. I trained him so...
I am a church secretary, and after 12 years working with Pagemaker I am going to be forced to switch to Indesign next year. I will be getting a new iMac and it...

Janna, I have to echo a lot of the other postings. If you are comfortable with PageMaker, then you will be fine InDesign. The only major hurdle that I feel you...
