MemberAre you by any chance working w master pages?
Frances Simons
MemberYou should work on your copy first. Just a tip.
Frances Simons
MemberOh. You will need to familiarize yourself with mobile optimization and SEO. It’s really not so much about being mobile or Google friendly. Start with Joimla and read, read, read.

MemberHi Chris
Big learning curve for you, but you’ll be fine! You’re going to need a simple platform, which WordPress can provide. It sounds as though your company has a straightforward website (or they’d not put the job on your desk, I daresay)
I like Joomla too. It’s very easy to use and well-supported w templates and the like so you won’t have to learn more complex coding etc at the outset.
InDesign won’t have much to do with it. You can process your images in PS and AI.Frances Simons
MemberWeird. Doesn’t happen to me. Will watch thread to see what must be happening.
Frances Simons
MemberIf you are using Print Booklet it will look different because InDesign puts it in printer spreads and signatures. It also does the imposition. Truly most printers would rather people just export to PDF because you don’t need PS files much anymore.

MemberHi there. Curious why you don’t want to use continuous view?
Frances Simons
MemberOh, it’s definitely smart to use Word for your purposes. But MinionPro is an Adobe font. Are you using a Windows system? Your Word should be seeing it though.
Frances Simons
MemberFonts are part of your respective applications. Plus, Adobe and Microsoft are from different planets and that’s before you start talking about OTF and/or TT formats or switching between Windows and OS systems. With many proprietary fonts, the two worlds offer just-about-the-same font styles. Honestly, I personally *never* use Word anymore. I’m not sure whether it qualifies as a Best Practice, but I use InD for composition (it’s hard to go back to Word for tables, for instance. So much easier and better in InD).
What fonts are troubling you.

MemberI spent a lot of time on this very thing almost a year ago. You can do up your layout in InDesign but you need another application to upload it as a flipbook–if you want the full animation effect. My client opted to use Issuu after trials with about 4-5 of the other flip book apps.
Frances Simons
MemberI’d check that master page. As Colleen suggests, it could very well be that a master is applied and there’s artwork on it. I’m curious what you find to be the issue.

MemberHi Rubens,
So you have text and images on separate layers, correct? The arrows, are they strokes with arrow ends? Or are they images? Graphics frame, hmm, need to understand what you have going on there?
Hey, let’s see the screenshots. That will definite help.
(PS your workaround makes total sense, but the cause of the problem is probably deceptively simple, so will the fix)Frances Simons
MemberHi James,
I know exactly the issue you’re puzzling over as I’ve had it myself. No snaps and no insets and on a fresh, non-import table too. I will be interested to hear what the experts say. Meanwhile if you want work-arounds just sayFrances Simons
MemberHi Linda. I feel your pain! How many fonts have you got on the go? Also, are the inside contents image heavy? 84 pages will be hard to get down to <10. I do everything to cut down file size prior to exporting. What are you doing from within Indd? If you have lots of images, process them in PS before bringing them in. So make them actual size you need for the PDF and 72 ppi and place at 100% effective res. Uhm, get ride of unused colours. Whittle away.
Frances Simons
MemberUsually that dotted line means something is grouped.
