InDesign Tip #103: Create a PDF w/ spreads

Another challenge! (thanks again, derek)

When exporting PDFs from InDesign (one of it's most fabulous features compared to Quark PDF-making), do the following to make a PDF of your spread.

1. Hit apple+E or File>Export
2. Create your 'save as' name and choose a location. Be sure Adobe PDF is selected as the file type to be created (it is the default setting). Hit Save.
3. In the next window, select the type of PDF you wish to make: screen (lo-res), print (higher-res), or press (highest-res).
4. Check the button that says Spreads, just below the page range.
5. Then click Export.

That should create your PDF. I tried it using a 3-page and 4-page spread and it worked beautifully.
Derek, let me know if that answered your question.
