Overview of this book

Adobe InDesign is the leading desktop publishing and layout software for producing brochures, magazines, flyers, books, posters, and a wide range of digital documents. It allows you to rapidly draft your documents with precise control over typography, images, positioning, alignment, color, and other interactive features. However, InDesign’s interface, tools, and workflows can be a bit challenging to get to grips with. This cookbook will assist you in building unparalleled InDesign workflows with tried and tested recipes. With Designing the Adobe InDesign Way, you’ll learn how to add and edit content, create color swatches, and use features such as tables, all while applying software best practices and techniques to ensure that your work is fast, efficient, and easily maintained. Additionally, you’ll explore advanced InDesign features such as text styles, parent pages, tables of contents, and pre-flighting. Finally, you’ll take a closer look at the many export options in InDesign and ways to truly maximize its capabilities. By the end of this book, you’ll be well equipped to draft and design your own projects while ensuring your work is compatible with industry standards for print and digital documents.

Setting color management settings

Good color management is important for maintaining consistent and accurate color reproduction across different devices and platforms, and it plays an especially important role in achieving accurate print results. By setting your color management settings properly, you can ensure you avoid any nasty surprises when it comes to the colors in your document.

For those who only use InDesign, color management settings can be configured within the InDesign application itself. If you are also using other Creative Cloud apps such as Photoshop or Illustrator, however, it is better to set your color management settings within Adobe Bridge, which causes Creative Cloud to synchronize the settings across the various Creative Cloud applications, including InDesign.

In this recipe, we will look at how to set up color management in both InDesign and Adobe Bridge, allowing you to ensure accurate color reproduction when working with InDesign.
