Hi everyone,

 

I am planning to make a planner with I design.

 

I tried last year by sending my prints from my computer and it took so long. Is there an easier way becuase I have a personal printer so it took forever. I want to sell them this end of year. 

can we save our file to a drive and take it to a big print place or do we need the software on any machine we print from? 

im saving them as idd files.

If you're getting something commercially printed, create a PDF for print.

Ask your printer for a spec, but usually you'd Place your images in RGB mode in the InDesign document and add the text in (say) K for black, then select one of the Adobe PDF Presets, either PDF/X-1 or PDF/X-4, export as pages (not spreads) and tick Crop Marks and Use Docment Bleed Settings.
