Linked Tiff Files are not showing up on Exported PDF

Hi Rob,

well, yes, but the information if the TIFFs were placed from a CC Library could be an important piece of the puzzle.

Some years ago I've seen a similar issue. The cause: An image was added to a CC library when the view was set to "Normal" and the quality of the display performance was set to "Fast Display".

"I was basing my answer on your screenshot, which appears like a live page layout in InDesign, with the guidelines, etc."

Thought so as well, but after inspecting this screenshot below I see that:

Include > Visible Guides and Baseline Grids

was enabled.

What I wonder:

Were the TIFF images placed from CC Libraries?

Do we perhaps see a bug with TIFF images ( 1-Bit bitmaps? ) and CC Libraries?

Whitney5DD1,

I think we need a sample document with one graphic placed and embedded; embedded for testing only, not that I would suggest this a regular workflow. You can embed a placed and linked image in the Links panel. One page in the document should be enough. Put the InDesign document on Dropbox or a similar service and share the download link.

Thanks,

If nothing helps, open that image in Photoshop and resave it as PSD file (or if no transparency is involoved JPG with high quality is also good) and replace it with the original image.

The display quality in your InDesign file is not connected to the export proicess.

If it was fine before now, perhaps you accidentally hit the key command to take ID to "Fast Display" which greeks the photo boxes.

Check your view settings under View > Display Performance.

I have seen this occur when one is running out of memory. If the settings above are correct, try just quit/reboot and see if it sorts itself out.

Hi,

From the window menu, can you check that the Display Performance is set to Typical or High Quality Display.
