Question : Ghost background image showing when printing images in Indesign file -HELP!
|
|
I try to add a logo in InDesign that has transparent background in a brochure. On screen looks great but when I print it I can see lighter ghost background where the transparent background should be. THIS ONLY HAPPENS on documents with colored background. I tried to insert the image as psd file instead of jpg,or npg but it still has the ghost background when I print!!! I even tried adding color background on the logo to match the background of the document but it still shows lighter when I print it. I also set transparency blending space on CMYK, but when I try to set transparency flattener presets to high res, they always go back to low res! I don't know if that's causing the problem. Please help as I lost hope that I can fix this!

Sounds like a clipping path is in order.
I would save a flattened copy out and use it. Open it, open the paths tool, and draw your path around the area you want to display. You will need to know bezier curves, here is a couple tutorials: http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/vectordrawingbasics/ http://www.thegoldenmean.com/technique/pen1.html
Open the paths pallette, create new path via the drop down menu, name the path, draw the path, and then designate it a clipping path via the drop down menu. You will need to save it out as an eps or tiff, but if you place this, it should work.
