How to Export My InDesign Catalogue for High-Quality Printing?

[Mauro38753980fg5k]

Hello!
I have a 4 sheets catalogue, with photographs in tiff / cmyk and on the cover/back cover a black and white photo (passed in grayscale and then cmyk) full page, how should I export it for printing?

If you are talking about having it printed commercially then your best bet is to discusss with the printer their preference for release. They may prefer a pdf (the type of which they should specify) or a collect of the native files made through File>Package. Communicating with your vendor may save you lots of time and even money.

Thank you for your answer, 

It doesn't allow me to pack the file, but when I save it as IDML I can do it. Could there be a problem there?

What happens when you try to use the Package option? Also what version of InDesign and what operating system are you using? Have you recently updated either InDesign or your OS?

What do you mean by "4 sheets"?

Can you post a screenshot?

You should just export PDF - but in order to do it correctly - you have to talki with your printer - people who will be printing it.

They should give you a specification - detailed info.
