I think we discussed this before, but I've split the parent page items on two layers. I lock the layer I don't want to be overridden. The other layer with parent page items can be overridden en masse. Simple select all the pages in the Pages panel and override the items.    ... View more

I started to sign up under a new email to experience the process anew. The 7-day trail at no fee and a 30-day trial with a full refund were pretty clear. The cancelation and termination fee was available with a link right before one accepted the trial. While I felt it could have been more pronounced, I generally don't agree to things without reading at least _some_ of the terms. Here does the responsibility untimately lie to make sure the terms are understood?   ... View more

>>>technical problems are only due to the new marketing stratigy only.  Really? Try running Acrobat 7 on a new Mac. Try installing PageMaker 7 on Windows 11* or Mac.

I would add just one additional comment to @rob day 's posts. I think primary text frames are best projects like books and technical manuals.  The magazines I've worked on, they really wouldn't be appropriate since the text jumps around the publication. For magazines, I use the manual approach since it gives me more control over the flow ... View more

I agree with @try67 about not trusting A1. I've seen some patently wrong answers.    Acrobat can be confusing because it does a number of different, sometimes unrelated, things. For example, redaction has nothing to do print production. However, I DO agree with @ODuinn that the various signature options need a clear decision-tree chart to guide users as to what option(s) is the best to use at the moment for their needs.   ...

The reason I asked about is I used to use the system below for a publisher I consulted to. They were "old school" and did not use electronic approval. I made use of InDesign's slug area and put an approval list on the parent pages; when printing proofs, I printed to legal size paper and included the slug area. ... View more

Just a note of caution based on Brad @ Roaring Mouse 's observation... If this booklet was not created by you or owned by your company, do not put it on it on your website unless you have a written release by the copyright owner.   ... View more

@Peter Spier You can change your preferences to delete empty pages.  If find that the Primary Frames work well _with the right type of project_. I've used them to produce multiple projects ranging from 500-1000 pages each.    ... View more

I got the same results.    A couple of other tips:  Not sure if this represents yan actual layout, but your "Placeholder Heading" can be part of the same text frame if you set Span Columns to 2.  The black box behind the photo caption is unnecessary. You can color the background of the caption frame. Use your text frame insets to adjust spacing.   ... View more

To add to @Peter Spier 's method, try this: Create a based-on parent page without any changes.  Create two variables for your heading and subheading.  Insert the variables in a non-printing header frame. Create a unique style for your TOC capture and format the two variables.  Apply the parent page where ever you want it to pick up the heading and subheading text (presumedly, on the opening page of a section).  IMPORTANT: Override the header frame by Cntl/Cmd-shift-clicking it , otherwise, the TOC won't pick it up. (Optionally, you could include the header on every page and just override it on the critical pages.) Build your TOC. Create a style with a nested character style to format the heading and subheading as desired.    ... View more

Not what I suggested. Let me clarify... Create a new BLANK document to the correct page size and page count. Include the bleed if it is used. Let's say you have an 8-page booklet. The pages will be arranged like so: 8/1, 2/7, 6/3, 4/5.  In the NEW document, PLACE the 8/1 spread on page 1. It will show the left page, so you will have to crop it to show the right page (page 1).  Go to page 8, PLACE the same spread again. It shouldn't need cropping but it depends on the PDF. Continue on each page. When finished, EXPORT the InDesign file to a print PDF, using High-Quality.  Hopefully, that makes more sense.    ... View more

I agree with @Peter Spier about different versions of the font. The style numbers and naming system you show doesn't match with Adobe's Helvetica Neue.  https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/helvetica-neue They do match with Linotype's numbers and names.

To refer back to your original question about file size, there are a couple of things that can cause it to grow: When saving: Create PDF compatible file. If you are not placing the AI file in another program, you don't need this option. Include Linked Files (it embeds any linked files) Embed permitted fonts for file preview. If I want to send someone a "proof", I'll save as a PDF files without the AI file embedded (that just makes the PDF bloated too). Embedding placed graphics rather than linking. Now that AI has a Package command, I don't find it as necessary to embed any graphics into the file.   ... View more

IMO, resizing frames can cause more problems than it solves, especially if the text ever has to reflow.  I don't like manual page breaks either. I build based-on paragraph styles with breaks built in. For example: Heading1 Heading1_PgBk   ... View more
