Exporting and publishing
Last updated 11/30/2015
(Asian versions only) If Base On Page Layout is selected, InDesign determines the reading order of page objects
according to the document’s binding (left to right or right to left). In some instances, especially in complex,
multicolumn documents, the exported design elements may not appear in the desired reading order. Use Dreamweaver
to rearrange and format the contents.
Same As XML Structure
The order of the tags in Structure View determines the reading order. See Tag page items.
Same As Articles Panel
The order of elements in the Articles panel determines the reading order. Only the checked articles are exported. See
Include articles for export .
Book Margin Specify a simple margin in Ems or pixels. Specifying margins in Ems is better for multiscreen
compatibility. The same value is applied to all margins: top, bottom, left, and right.
Bullets Select Map To Unordered List to convert bullet paragraphs into List Items, which are formatted in HTML using
the <ul> tag. Select Convert To Text to format using the <p> tag with bullet characters as text. If you have used native
InDesign auto-bullets, subbullets are also included.
Numbers Determines how numbers are converted in the HTML file. If you have used native InDesign auto-
numbering, subbullets are also included
Map To Ordered List Converts numbered lists into List Items, which are formatted in HTML using the <ol> tag.
Map To Static Ordered List Converts numbered lists into List Items, but assigns a <value> attribute based on the
paragraph’s current number in InDesign.
Convert To Text Converts numbered lists into paragraphs that begin with the paragraph’s current number as text.
View EPUB After Exporting Starts the Adobe Digital Editions Reader, if present.
EPUB Images options
The Images section of the Digital Editions Export Options dialog box includes the following options. From the Image
Conversion menu, determine how images are exported to HTML.
Preserve Appearance from Layout Check to inherit the image object attributes from the layout.
Resolution (ppi) Specify the resolution of the images in pixels per inch (ppi). While operating systems have
standardized on either 72 ppi or 96 ppi, mobile devices range from 132 ppi (iPad), to 172 ppi (Sony Reader), to over
300 ppi (iPhone 4). You can specify a ppi value for each object selected. Values include 72, 96, 150 (average for all eBook
devices today), and 300.
Image Size Specify if image size must remain fixed or resized relative to the page. Relative to Page Size sets a relative
percentage value based on the size of the image relative to the InDesign page width. This option causes the images to
rescale proportionally, relative to the width of the reading area.
Image Alignment and Spacing Specify the image alignment, left, center, right, and the top and bottom padding.
Insert Page Break Check to insert page breaks with images. Page breaks can be inserted Before Image, After Image, or
Before and After Image.
Settings Apply to Anchored Objects Check to apply these settings to all anchored objects.
Image Conversion Lets you choose whether the optimized images in your document are converted to GIF, JPEG, or
PNG. Choose Automatic to let InDesign decide which format to use in each instance. Choosing PNG disables the image
compression settings.; use PNG for lossless images or for images that include transparency.
