Printing and Exporting - Adobe InDesign CC - page 460

Adobe InDesign CC provides advanced printing and print preparation controls to manage
your print settings, regardless of your output device. You can easily output your work to a
laser or inkjet printer, high-resolution film, or a computer-to-plate imaging device.
Getting started
In this lesson, you'll work on a magazine cover that contains a full-color image and also
usesaspotcolor.Thedocumentwillbeprintedonacolorinkjetorlaserprinterforproofing
and also on a high-resolution imaging device, such as a platesetter used in offset printing.
Prior to printing, the document will be exported to a PDF file that can be used in a review
process.
