Using ID CS, Acrobat Professional, Windows XP. We are switching over from PM7 to ID CS, and I'm attempting to work out the PDF workflow - specifically, we have up to now sent a distilled PDF with our printer's job options to the printer to RIP. When I ask for job options from our printer for ID, they don't seem to know what I want, as the file will be exported instead of distilled. I've gone through all the ID/PDF job options and read all I could find, and still don't have the answers to these questions: - Export from ID or distill with old job options better? - Preset ID job options for press quality okay? - - If so, are font imbedded automatically? - Will files with eps graphics export okay? Much appreciated.

If your printer is using a clone PostScript RIP rather than true PostScript, it may have trouble with the CID encoded embedded fonts that Indesign's export function generates. > - Preset ID > job options for press quality okay?

Don't forget, you are not required to use export; you are still free to distill PostScript generated by Indesign.
