      InDesign file ‘a’ has a background image at 64% opacity. I’d like to place this file into InDesign file ‘b’, without a’s transparency interacting with ‘b’. Any way to turn this off?

      Try this: In document ‘b’ select the frame that holds the placed ‘a’ file, and give it the color Paper (or any color that you wish). This will place the color behind the graphic, and will effectively block the background from ‘b’ to show through.

      I think I get the weekly ‘duh’ award. At some point I knew this easy solution, but had obviously forgotten it! Thank you for reminding me, Ari. (And apologies for the late response.)
