Hi, I need help with a export from Indesign CS4 to Entourage 2008. I have 2 macs , IMAc and macbook pro. In macbook pro I don’t have the problem when copy the page document from Indesign and paste in a new mail message in entourage. The problem is: when I paste the whole page in the text field of the new message it appear at the end of the image a nav bar like a video player. In the macbook doesn’t appear this problem. What could be?

The document have text in the top and a picture buttom and under the picture there is a navigation bar that I don’t know why it is there.

thank u

Is there any option by which, i can export to HTML in form of multiple pages, not only a single HTML file?

Regards,
Neeraj

Laura, yes, the exported HTML pages would be searchable; that is, if you put them on a web server then the search engines would crawl and index them.

Hi Anne-Marie,

Just wondered if these exported HTML pages would be searchable?

Thanks.

Hi there,

Than you very much for sharing this. Still timely and useful even after a few years old.

My question is, what is a good document size to work on from scratch in InDesign that will be exported to bleed images on a browser (e.g. the banner, for instance)?

Thank you for your comment in advance.

Is it possible to have the styling exported as well?
i.e., export the indesign page/s and see it displayed in the browser as it is in inDesign.

Is this possible in either CS3 or CS4?

Hiya Andrea! What version of InDesign are you using, and is it on a Windows or Mac machine? Also, does the extension only change back to .xml when you click away from the text field or only after exporting? p.s. You could always just make the change to the actual file itself! @ Anne-Marie: Again, thank you so much for your help. I apologize for not getting back to your question regarding CSS classes: I think I meant to write h3 class="byline". A whole paragraph of biographical info definitely merits its own div! Even then, if the h3 is only for bylines, and the entire article is in a div, we can always style the element with #divName h3 { }. This would be a better use of the CSS cascade than trying to style the byline through a mess of classes. I still feel the ability to export tags with class names (which is not the same as using inline styles) is very valuable to web designers. I look forward to seeing the advancements the folks at Adobe make with this feature. Thanks for helping me figure it out!

you are right. it does say that you need to change the file extension, as i mentioned, after the change is made it is automatically changing back to .xml

is there a way to prohibit this from happening?

@Andrea: I think the steps above say that you need to change the file extension to .html.
