Creating a proof of an Adobe InDesign file
There are two ways to create a proof of an Adobe InDesign file:
Drag and drop the .indd file – perfect for early-stage content proofing.
Create a proof directly from inside of Adobe InDesign using the PageProof plugin for Adobe InDesign – perfect for late-stage, print-ready proofing.
Dragging & dropping an .indd file
Dragging and dropping the .indd file is ideal for InDesign file content proofing – perfect for reviewing the layout of a file quickly and easily.
Note: Font substitution of custom fonts may occur. Also any images linked will appear low resolution.
Creating a proof directly from Adobe InDesign
When the artwork is getting ready at its final stages, use the PageProof plugin for Adobe InDesign (available for download from the Adobe app marketplace) to create your print-ready proof directly from InDesign. A proof of the print-ready PDF is exported directly from InDesign automatically using the add-on. Quick and simple.
