on an embedded profile, change the CMYK color policy to Preserve

Embedded Profiles in the Color Settings dialog box. You can easily

restore the safe CMYK workflow by changing the CMYK color policy

back to Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles).

You can override safe CMYK settings when you print a document or

save it to PDF. However, doing so may cause colors to be rendered in

different color values. For example, pure CMYK black objects may be

re-separated as rich black. For more information on color management

options for printing and saving PDFs, consult the Help files for each

Creative Suite 5 component.

Color Swatches

Creative Suite 5 components can easily share color swatches by using

the Adobe Swatch Exchange (ASE) format. This makes it easy to

establish standard swatches for a project, regardless of the originating

application.

For example, to save swatches from an InDesign document, select a

range of swatches in the Swatches panel, and then choose Save

Swatches from the Swatches panel menu. You are prompted to name

and save the swatch file, and InDesign creates a file with the file

extension .ase, containing all the selected swatches.

To import swatches from an Adobe Swatch Exchange file, choose Load

Swatches from the Swatches panel in Photoshop, Illustrator, or

InDesign, and navigate to the saved .ase file. All swatchesregardless

of color modeare imported.

OpenType Font Format

Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign fully support the extended features

of OpenType® fonts. The OpenType format offers exciting features for

designers, while being compatible with a wide range of imaging devices

and workflow systems. Among the features of OpenType fonts are:

•Cross-platform compatibility. A le created on a PC using OpenType

fonts can be opened on a Macintosh computer using the same Open-

Type fonts, without any text alteration or reow.

•Extended character sets, including ligatures for leer combinations

other than , , , and so on. ese discretionary ligatures are cor-

rectly interpreted during spellcheck. (Not all OpenType fonts include

discretionary ligatures.)

•Special characters such as diacriticals for non-English text, swashes,

and arbitrary fractions (again, not available in all OpenType fonts). In

PostScript fonts, such features have traditionally required the use of

separate fonts (called Expert Sets) containing the special characters.

Since an OpenType font can have in excess of 65,000 characters, all of

these special features can be incorporated within one font.

•Unicode number identication of characters. Unicode numbering

means that, if a character exists in more than one OpenType font, it

exists at the same position in the font. us, changing the font used by

text would not result in missing or incorrect characters. (Again, not all

special characters exist in all OpenType fonts, and switching to an

OpenType font that did not have the desired special character would

result in something called a “notdef” (not dened) character, usually

indicated by a rectangle, where the character should be.)

OpenType fonts coexist peacefully with PostScript Type 1 and TrueType

fonts without conflict. Adobe OpenType fonts have distinct names (such

as Helvetica LT Std or Adobe Garamond Pro) that prevent font conflicts

and allow easy identification in font listings. You should have no

imaging issues whatsoever with OpenType fonts, regardless of the font

vendor. For more information on OpenType font technology, see http://
