• Tints are converted as percentages of the parent color. If the parent color isn’t in the Swatches panel, it’s added during
conversion. When an object with a tint is selected, the parent color is selected in the Swatches panel, and the tint
value appears in the pop-up menu.
• Color profiles for PageMaker files are converted directly. All Hexachrome colors are converted to RGB values.
Profiles that are not ICC-compliant are replaced using the default CMS settings and profiles you specified for
InDesign.
• All strokes and lines (including paragraph rules) are converted to the default stroke styles they most closely
resemble. Custom strokes and dashes are converted to custom strokes and dashes in InDesign.
• InDesign does not support screen patterns or angles applied to TIFF images in Image Control; it drops these from
imported TIFF files.
• When Auto-Overprint Black Strokes or Fills (or both) is selected in the Trapping Preferences dialog box in
PageMaker, the setting carries over to InDesign, but Overprint Stroke or Overprint Fill is deselected in the Attributes
panel.
For information about other PageMaker conversion issues, check the support documents on the Adobe website.
