Hi guys! just need some quick advice I have 9 pages max saved photoshop boards and need to place them all onto landscape boards one by one so that I can save the file for web view and send via Email. question is what size board do I make it to make sure the file size does not distort the pixels. Do I make it the same size the measurements were on my boards in photoshop? 

Just need step by step advice instead of watching loads of techy tutorials! Thanks

Alternatively, if you have Acrobat, you can skip InDesign altogether. You can create PDFs from Photoshop directly, and then File > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF in Acrobat.

I’m sorry but that is impossible to answer. We know absolutely nothing about your project so you’ll need to give us way more in the way of details.

That out of the way, I’m not even sure what makes you think the pixels will be distorted. I’m not even sure exactly what that means. So, please take a step back and help us so we can help you.

Screenshots would probably help.

Hi there thanks for the reply. Okay so I have little experience with Indesign I would like to place all my Photoshop boards into Indesign as a Portfolio so I can email all the boards to view as one pdf. In terms of setting up the Indesign board what measurements do I need shall I just leave it as default settings , landscape and un-tick facing pages.

That'll work just fine.
