Poor quality image when i copy and paste from in design to photoshop

I don’t think the OP is going to see these new posts because the last time they logged in was 2 years ago, but when I copy and paste from InDesign to Photoshop, I get a vector Smart Object, so the pasted object takes on the resolution of the destination file:

Pasting into a 72ppi doc is an obvious problem especially for text objects:

But 600ppi resolves the text correctly when viewed at Print or Actual size:

Thank you, Mohit, but the OP was asking about the opposite: copying from InDesign to Photoshop. This thread is from November 2020.

Mike, 

Thank you for your response. If you can find how to apply effects such as "bevel", "emboss", and "drop shadow" in photoshop, please let me know. Otherwise, I need to do these things in Indesign.

I actually do open both images in PS. I do the graphics in ID & then copy & paste graphics to PS. From there I can layer as needed & then export that image back to ID to finish.

Hi Jane,

I want to use the layer capabilities of PS and the text capabilities of ID for example I have a background, then text, then a human subject mask that partially covers the text for effect. I do like to edit the background with the technique you described but to get all the layers, I think i need to move them to photoshop to get the effect, then move them back to ID to finish up as a book cover with all the bleed and margin capability of ID. When i copy in ID & paste in PS, the quality goes from 300 dpi to 72 dpi.
