Yet another piece of evidence of why not to be tricked into feeling safe using the pre-flight feature within InDesign itself, as this video highlights titled, Adobe InDesign preflight vs Markzwares FlightCheck.

There are many plugins that offer useful enhancements to Adobe InDesign. Here is one that claims to offer error-free output from Badia called Printools.

Badia Printools for Adobe InDesign CS3 provides prepress and printing professionals with a powerful collection of printing tools for automated and error-free output. In one comprehensive package you get batch printing of multiple documents, rename at print, print to file in different formats, and preflighting. You can even combine several of these tools during the same print session to streamline complex printing tasks.

If like many designers you are in the process of making the big switch from QuarkXPress to InDesign, you know it is not a trivial undertaking. You have to retrain your brain to a new way of working and remind your fingers which keys to hit for those newfangled shortcuts. You are in a hurry to get up to speed, and you have just been asked to create a client’s next newsletter in InDesign. The template for the newsletter is currently in QuarkXPress. You’ve finally come to that fork in the road: Do you build a new newsletter template from scratch, or do you take the easy way out and just open the file with InDesign? If there’s a lot of work in the template, go for File > Open. While it’s surprising this works at all, you should know what converts and what does not.
