If you do not know what links are and how they work, read this paragraph.If you are using InDesign to create your PDF presentations for distribution on email/internet or Turnitin but need to maintain decent image quality, the best results are achieved by:Ī) first by saving your presentation as a high-resolution PDF in InDesign.ī) then optimising your high-resolution PDF presentation in Acrobat (this is important if you submit your presentation to Turnitin.) In that case, you need to relink the files. A question mark in a red circle signals that the link to the original file is missing. If the image is too small, the best thing is to acquire a bigger original version.ī) Check if your images are properly linked in the Links panel. A resolution of 72dpi for example is screen resolution and too low for print (you want at least 150dpi). You can do this by checking the image file’s properties in your File Manager or by opening them in Photoshop. B) Missing links.Ī) Check the size and resolution of the images used. Problem: Pictures are blurry on screen and print blurry.Ĭause: A) Images too small. The display mode is meant to make navigating the document smoother when there are a lot of images.
Solution: Go to Windows>Display Mode>High Quality Display. Problem: Pictures seem blurry on screen, but are fine when printing. Now you can select the jpg version of the image and it will be replaced. Select an image you want to replace and go the options and select Relink. In order to not manually re-place and reposition the pictures, go to the Links again. Also, check the width and height of the resulting image and decrease this if it is too big – Indesign would still crash. When opening a pdf, it is possible to set the dimensions and resolution.
To have control over the quality, it is best to open a pdf in Photoshop, then save as jpg.
When importing these pictures during export, they make the export crash. Here you can check the file type.ĭo not use pdfs, psd, ai files of floor plans, facades etc. Go to Windows>Links to see all the pictures used. Problem: The export stops or Indesign crashes.Ĭause: This is probably due to files in the document being too big, like pdf, psd, ai.
