I've created an 90 page Art Book in InDesign (on my desktop Mac), which I need to create a PDF doc, keeping the double page spread format. What are the steps to achieve a PDF of the whole book?

Many thanks,

Dan.

Hi Dan -

If you have your original document set up as double-page spreads in InDesign, then you will have the spread outputs.

Hi there -

It's a pretty straightforward export from InDesign, although you have to include a couple of specific settings. First, choose File > Export and select Adobe PDF (Print). Pick your settings as required. To convert the spreads, make sure to select the Spreads radio button on the General tab, shown below.

Thank you Donna, I'll give it another shot. Although I have been doing this and have not been able to create a basic PDF file. I have a feeling once I do create the PDF doc, it may open as single pages, rather than double.

Anyway, thanks again!

Dan.,
