okay, I'll do that then. Thanks for the workaround!

I'm designing a set of calendar desktop backgrounds for a client and InDesign is by far the easiest way to set up the layout of the calendar portion. I obviously need to give them an image they can use as a background (I tried PNG export and it doesn't work either). I was hoping there was an easier way to do this but it looks like I may have to make do with PDF export.

I've just followed the instructions and it made no difference unfortunately. I'm making do with the PDF>JPG conversion but I feel like I don't have as much control over the output resolution with the PDF export, which is annoying. Should I report this to Adobe/take screenshots?

I do have 11.4.1, and I've checked the folder before clicking export and also ran a search for the filename just in case- no dice. It's very odd that InDesign would already have corrupt files considering I only installed it 2 days ago and have done nothing with it.

Okay, I've managed to do it after launching the program 4 times (ha!) The file still won't export as a JPEG, however PDF now appears in the drop-down menu so I managed to export it as that and then convert it to PDF. It's a bit of a hassle though. Thanks for your help!

I have a Mac (10.11.6) and I use the 2015.4 release of InDesign. I do see JPG in the drop down menu, that's the problem. Everything is as it should be and I click on export after setting everything up (colour space, ppi, etc) and it just does nothing. I did try exporting as PDF and the PDF format doesn't appear at all in the format drop-down menu. Really not sure what's going on.

Hi everyone, I'm used to Photoshop but quite new at working with InDesign. I recently placed a PSD file in a brand new InDesign document and layered some more text on it with InDesign. I'm trying to export this whole thing now from InDesign as a JPG image and it just won't let me. I click on export in the file menu, I select all the options and when I finally click on the export button, nothing happens. The export window closes as if the job was done but I have no exported file on my drive. I tried the export function with another INDD document I had lying around (with no placed PSD in it) and it worked, so I think this is specific to this document. Any idea what's going on? Is this something really basic I'm just not seeing? Thanks!
