Adobe InDesign offers a lot of features for a desktop publishing program, including those for the professional printer. Go to the File menu and select Print. Do this, of course, when you are finished editing your InDesign document and are ready to print or create a PDF of it. On the left side of the Print window you will see a list of choices starting with General and continuing with Setup Marks and Bleed and Output as well as others. Select Output. Select Adobe PDF Presets from the File menu and choose [Press Quality] from the submenu. A dialog box will pop up for you to name the PDF file and place it on your computer where you want it. Double-click each image in your InDesign document individually. This will give you the option of editing the original in Photoshop, which is the best place to create CMYK separation files for your images. This is because Photoshop is designed to edit and produce the best color for images, whereas InDesign is a desktop publishing program.
