InDesign text trapping glitch in EPS output files
Dec 06, '02 09:04:44AM • Contributed by: Anonymous
When saving out InDesign documents as EPS files for sending to the bureau, I was finding that some text was 'bolding' as if the trap was incorrect. After much testing, it appears that InDesign, when saving out as an EPS, will 'outline' text that is too close to a graphic. But it also keeps the remaining text within the EPS as text, thereby causing the bolding effect. The workaround is to merely put the text on a layer above the graphic.

Text boxes and graphics
It's possible that InDesign is doing what Quark does when you have text in a box with a background set to \"none\" and have that box in front of a picture box: It will automatically trap the text in the text box. We had this happen several times when sending files out for film for a letterhead and envelope: The text would come back looking bold when it wasn\'t set as bold in the file. We found something in the QuickStart book on Quark 5.0 that mentioned this behavior and that fixed the problem.
It's a Bug in InDesign
InDesign rasterizes type that is close to a graphic on the same layer. This is especially problematic with text wrapping, text near the graphic's path get rasterized.
Utter Nonsense: There is no such
I have read the comments about a supposed "bug" in InDesign. these comments are total nonsense. I have covered them as they occurred.
Utter Nonsense: There is no such
I've got this problem too but it's not fixed if i put the text in an other layer. The image is half under the text and the text is half bold. where the imagebox starts the text gets bold. ?? If i create outlines from the text the entire text gets bold. Anyone got a solution?
different InDesign EPS export bug
When I export to EPS, all instances of apostrophe (') are missing. :(

Sounds like a font problem... turn off Font Subsetting, it may help.
Transparency?
I think this is may be a knows problem. I remember reading something about a situation when text had to be placed on a layer above transparency to print correctly. Could this be the case here?

I have the same problem exporting from CS4 Indesign to PDF, with SOME pages containing a Photoshop image file with transparancy in the original PSD file... |
