New to InDesign, with problems of objects vs just copy and paste.

I'm working on my first page of brochure layout in InDesign.  I am having some problems when trying to place some simple vector Illustrator in my Indesign document.  When I do a place in the file, the image loses its sharpness, but if I select the image in Illustrator then copy to HAVE and paste into InDesign, it looks great.  I don't know enough for all this knowledge if this will have a negative effect on printing, or any other aspect of the finished product.  When you use the copy and paste method I don't seem to be able to change original that the work doesn't seem to be "associated" with a file I but rather just work in the InDesign document, if I understand correctly.  I'm doing something wrong?

Thank you

Justin

Best practice is to always use place. You don't have to worry about how the image looks in InDesign - this is just a glimpse of the screen. You can improve its look a bit using the view > display performance > high quality display. Even then, what you see on the screen is always a preview and will not look as good as what's to print.

Remember that when you actually print, data from the original Illustrator, (not the preview) file will be used for output.

  • Translation problem click / highlight boxes when copy and paste slides from another project

    I am baffled by this problem because it doesn't seem wise. I opened a new project to record a simulation, and when I did, I copy and paste all the slides in the section in my "Master project" If you want to. After the dough, I noticed that all of the boxes, clickboxes and highlight, I had taken the time to carefully resize were all out of wack in terms of position. Here are the best, I opened a blank project and copy and paste the same slides... this time the click and highlight boxes were in the correct position. Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance,

    Neel

    Oh, 'in position '... I see...

    The project is bigger than the other? For example, the original perhaps to 800 x 600 and the new to 850 x 650?

    Positioning can then be turned off relatively...

    Take a few elements of the sample and note their x / y positions of the properties panel, in the first draft (under 'Transform' in CP 5.5).

    After pasting in the new, note these same x / y positions.

    Is there a significant factor?

    If this is the problem, make sure that the sizes are the same, make the dough, then expand the project later (and maybe everything will keep its anchors?)

    I have not seen that happen in new versions of CP.

    You can try to check "Keep the Proportions" option in the properties of the original, just in case where this helps to "compel the position" too... guess total...

  • Copy and paste problems.

    I started having problems when I try to copy and paste text from one program to another.  Two known issues.

    I can't copy and paste text from word processing Microsoft Works 8.5 on Windows Mail, version 6. CTRL C and paste, or right-click Copy and paste, the two methods only stop Windows Mail.

    As there is no spell check here I tried to write this question on work and copy and paste on here. But he just farm Explorer. And I had to restart and reconnect.

    I've been aware of this problem last week, and I have not loaded any addition or program updates, only those coming behind the sceens from Microsoft.

    If there is a related issue. I tried to copy a number of password from one web site to a work page, and it says that the size was too big, I don't remember the exact wording. It was only about 8 letters and numbers well.

    I use Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron 1520.

    That's all very annoying when a week ago, everything was fine. Can someone help? Or explain why I am now having this problem. Moreover, I did try and do some restorations, but that has not solved the problem. I have not tried anything else that I'm not an expert on computers.

    Hello Polly,

    It seems that your OS has corrupted. However if the problem happens with Works 8.5 processor only, I suggest you try to uninstall and reinstall. In case this does not work, try to run the command SFC. To run this click Start, type "cmd" without quotest and right click on CMD and click on "Run as Administrator" and when the black window appears, type the following command.

    SFC/SCANNOW

    I suggest you restore your computer to factory settings. You can do it from this link-

    However, this will remove everything from the computer and you will lose all the information on your computer. So use it as a last resort and after you have backed up your data.

  • Image editing in InDesign (copy and paste from Illustrator)

    Hello

    I have a scenario and I hope someone can clarify:

    I'm working on a Mac using Adobe Illustrator & Indesign CS4. Whenever I have copy and paste or drag an image in illustrator into Indesign, this particular chart is not editable in InDesign, and it's ok.  I want it like this to the clerk/typists to use in their InDesign files.

    However, on a PC with Vista, when the chart is copied and pasted/dragged from illustrator into indesign, this graph becomes editable using the direct Selection tool in InDesign.  I want to know is if there is a way to disable this option on the PC version as on mac?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Perhaps the difference lies with the way Illustrator fits images.

    Here, with my trusty CS3 in 'preferences files and Clipboard' (translated from the french), I have the choice of exporting the Clipboard in the format PDF and AICB format.

    If I understand your message, I guess Mac export as a PDF and Vista exports AICB format.

    An audit of preferences would help with this,

    Good luck.

  • Copy and paste titles wasn't supposed to automatically create a new title since the last update?

    I thought that updates this year for the first includes the smart idea of using headlines in the same way as FCP, copy and paste creates a new title so that when you change the content that will not affect the original title.

    When I change one it is affected other so I just copy and paste and it again using the same active title.

    Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong.

    Try a click + drag.

  • Copy and paste graphic inserted gives InDesigne, object not! Bug or 'feature '?

    When I copy and paste any object in Indesign (Vectorgraphics, Rectangle, Textarea, everything) it is not glued as another object, there in the form of a graph inserted paster. I use creative Cloud, to update automatically. What is a 'novelty' or a bug? Copy and paste an object-> I want a new object (editable and with same color, etc.) and not a chart inserted. I can't change all the parameters of that or something? never had this problem before!

    I would appreciate your help as it really is uncomfortable in the workflow, even though I understand it would increase performance and reduce the amount of data.

  • Problem with copying and pasting the bottom like a layer

    I use Photoshop elements 14.  I used the Polygonal Lasso to select part of an image and to turn off the Cup in a new layer.  I opened the image I want to use as the background to place the cutting on.  I select all and then copy and paste it into the file with the cutting.  What appears as a layer of this background in cutting a file image is a tiny part of the original image.  For example, the original image is a photo of the entire landscape and all that glue in the bottom layer is a small part of the sky.  I changed the resolution of the original background photo and the file with the cutting at the same resolution and that did not help.  How can I get the whole background photo to appear as a layer of the file cut on the Photo?

    If I understand your problem, using this example, I selected the background flower later and placed on a new layer, layer 1. Then I selected the field of the whole flower to another image and and copy/pasted on layer 2. The problem is not so much the resolution of 2 photos but rather their pixel dimensions. In this example, the dimensions of the field of flowers were much smaller than the image of the close-up.

    I resized and then 2 layer to fill the drawing area:

    Perhaps it would be easier to pick the flower of the image enlarged and paste the selection in the field of flower photo. Then, you can resize and reposition the flower according to the needs:

    If this isn't your scenario, please specify.

  • Problem copy and paste paths in the new document

    Before when I copied and pasted the traces on a new document, it was working fine and the paths are out of the right size. Now even if I don't do anything else when I copy and paste a path into a new document, the trail comes out really small! I tried the two dragging the path and copy and paste, but neither will not work! Any suggestions? Thank you

  • Takes are silent when copied and pasted into the new track

    After recording several takes of a vocal part and a model gliding around how I like it, I decided to dub the voices and use another part of the (unused) takes.

    I created a new title in doubles (CMD - D) and pasted the vocal track (including), but the new double track is silent.  I can see the track and everything going out there and tried to remove plugins, copy and paste in different ways, but the track and just stay silent.  I can see them all here in the new track, and all that I can see, they should be heard.

    I tried this search anywhere online and cannot find any mention of this problem anywhere.  Is this just a bug?  I forgot something?

    What version of logic you use.

    It worked well here with 10.2.4

  • I need help with copy and paste does not

    I already asked this question, but no one seems to want to help or does not know the answer.  I can't afford to pay microsoft $49 help. It is their dang opertating system and you would think they would help the customers who buy their products.  Don't think!  Please, someone help me.  I am a graphic designer and need to copy and paste all the time, but it does not work.  It's so frustrating.  Should have bought a Mac time... next.  If no one here can help... where can I go for help?  Here the question again.

    Copy and paste the orders have stopped working in all my software programs (Photoshop, CorelDraw, Corel Painter, etc.).  When I type "copy", or "control c", it crashes and whatever program I use becomes inoperative, as well as all my programs, until I can get the specirfic program to close.  I ran Services.msc to ensure than the Clipboard (did not find Clipboard so I assumed it was changed to album) has been activated, which he was, but when I click on 'Start service' it says "cannot start service on local computer album.  "Error: 1068: the dependency service or group could start. It started several weeks ago and I have not installed new programs during this period.  Only my computer display was the automatic updates of Windows.  It's very frustrating...

    Whenever I have copy and paste images between 2 open files illustrator (using Illustrator CC), he applies a lag effect and I have to either extend the form to enter the effects > path > offset path and set it to 0. Does anyone know how to stop this?

    Lena,

    The issue should be resolved with the new patch/update, 19.1, that should solve known issues unresolved with 19.0.1.

    If she does not appear, disconnect and then reconnect the creative cloud application. After that, the 19.1 update must be visible in the creative application of Cloud.

    Default you can move or adapt the work affected (a little), then press Ctrl / Cmd + Z to undo, to get it in place.

    This is a roundabout way to use until the issue is resolved.

    Or you can turn paste remembers layers in the layers panel, if you can live with the side effects.
