    I tried everyone’s suggestions and nothing helped. So I figured I need to rasterize it, but it wasn’t as bad as it sounds.

    1. I exported all the pages to image. I chose tiff, and I set the resolution to 500dpi since the customer wants to enlarge the book.
    2. I ran an action in photoshop to convert to grayscale, flatten, invert and change image size to the larger page size.
    3. I ran the script in Indesign called image catalog. The page size was the default so I just enlarged the master page with the page tool, selecting scale in the liquid page rule.
    4. Exported the file to pdf

    Of course I still consider this a last resort, but it served perfectly for this visual impaired child.

    This is frustrating. I”m trying to print a negative of a book for a visual impaired child. I remember back in the days of Freehand there was a button “negative” and it was done. I don’t know if it was in the print software, or Freehand software, but I can’t believe this can’t be done easily! I did as you suggested, made a file with a black box. When I go to print, nowhere does it offer negative output. I tried selecting a ps file for the destination, using the Adobe PDF 9.0 driver. Still no such option.

    I’d really appreciate any help I can get.

    Incidentally, I’d be glad to do this from Acrobat Pro if it was possible.
