Gerar PDF em CMYK no InDesign

Olá! Criei uma revista no InDesign com centenas de fotos. Todas essas imagens estão em RGB. Dei um "place" em todas dentro do InDesign.

Agora eu quero dar saída em PDF neste material para ser enviado para a gráfica. Como sabemos, gráficas não aceitam materiais em RGB.

Existe alguma forma de gerar um PDF dentro do InDesign, de forma que ele faça a conversão automática dessas fotos para CMYK?

Caso não exista, eu preciso abrir foto por foto no Photoshop e converter para CMYK?

Obrigado

    You wrote (translated) " As we all know, graphics do not accept RGB materials."  This is quite wrong. Most printers now accept RGB and some prefer it. Some old fashioned printers do need CMYK. If you need CMYK they probably need old formats so export as PDF/X-1a, which converts to CMYK and flattens transparency.

    Caution: do not convert to CMYK unless you know what CMYK profile to use. Otherwise the colour is damaged.

    Export your document as a PDF - from the InDesign Acrobat PDF presets select PDF/X-4. Supply the PDF as single pages (not spreads) and check Use Document Bleed Settings.

    Alternatively, ask your printer how they want it supplied.
