Possible solution to PDFs looking washed out/colors faded

-

i decided easier post new thread in reply each , every thread related problem.

 

i searched forums try , find solution images looking washed out/colours looking faded after exporting indesign cs3 pdf.

 

after looking through forums came conclusion reason images looked faded because have objects less 100% opacity in indesign if have similar settings may work also.

 

when exporting indesign, under output tab changed colour conversion setting convert destination.

other left else was.


this solved blacks looking washed out, particularly fonts had become sort of grey/brown colour.


however noticed on pages images after pages had objects varying transparencies, still suffered looking washed out.


the next step came across purely chance: opening pdf using acrobat, under advanced tab chose pdf optimiser , noticed transparency option in sidebar hadn't been checked fonts , image options had.

so checked box , set preset high resolution , clicked ok.

 

it took minute or save new file , once opened it, richness , contrast of images had returned, if on saturated lot better washed out/faded appearance of previous document.

 

hopefully work few people out there having same problem.

i've responded few times others on forums regarding images looking washed out/faded in acrobat 8. thought i'd pass information here in case helps. in cases, images had appearance either had transparency applied or interacted in way. however, if file viewed output preview dialog open (under print production tools) colors appeared correctly. correct if transparency flattened.  turns out, there bug in acrobat 8 affected onscreen display of images interacted transparency or had directly applied , transparency still "live" (not flattened). fixed in update 8.1. if running 8.0 might want try updating 8.1 , see if helps?

Indesign and MathType fonts

i having trouble getting indesign recognize mathtype fonts.  have been told move mathtype fonts on 2 indesign font folder.  copied mt-extra font file mathtype folder , pasted indesign font folder.  nothing changed.  indesign still gives me blank box after copy mt-extra font mathtype -->illustrator-->indesign.   guess need instructions on how transfer of fonts done correctly.  i'v looked @ install fonts manual indesign, not clear me on how it.  need utility fontexplorer this, or there other way.  what's weird working fine until had reinstall osx , reinstall cs3, font trouble started.  need toggle "activate-reactivate' adobe cs3 , don't know how close 20 max on this, worried that.  (i suspect because of note on forum might necessary).  thoughts appreciated. i'm using windows, advice may worth nothing...   1) shouldn't have deactivate id recognize fonts. 2) design science gives fonts away in type 1 , truetype flavors....
