Exporting
Use the File > Export command to export all
or part of an InDesign document to other formats. These formats
include the following:
- Text
- You
can save all or part of an InDesign story in file formats that you
can open later in other applications. InDesign can export text in
several file formats, which are listed in the Export dialog box.
The formats listed are used by other applications, and they may
retain many of the type specifications, indents, and tabs set in
your document.
- JPEG
- JPEG uses a standardized image compression
mechanism to compress full-color or grayscale images for on-screen
display. Use the Export command to export a page, spread, or selected
object in JPEG format.
- Dreamweaver (XHTML)
- Export a selection or the entire document to a basic, unformatted
HTML document. You can link to images on a server or create a separate
folder for images. You can then use any HTML editor, such as Adobe Dreamweaver® or Adobe GoLive®,
to format the content for the web.
- Digital Editions (XHTML)
- You can export a document
or book as a reflowable XHTML-based eBook that is compatible with
the Adobe Digital Editions reader software.
- SWF
- When you export a document as a Flash file, you can set the
output size, specify the pages to include, and make various conversion
and compression choices. The exported SWF file is ready to be played
in Flash Player. Add buttons and page transitions to create a more
dynamic SWF file.
- XFL
- Exporting a document as an XFL file is an intermediate step.
After you export to XFL format, use the Flash authoring environment
to add video, audio, animation, and complex interactivity.
- GoLive
- Copying content from InDesign is a quick
way to get formatted text, tables, and graphics into Adobe GoLive®. Formatting is preserved as much as possible.
For a more systematic approach to repurpose content for GoLive, export
to XHTML or use an XML workflow.
For more information on exporting, see web Help.
