Packaging Options

Next, InDesign lets you choose how your document is packaged. In Windows, this is called the Package Publication dialog box, while on the Macintosh, it's the Create Package Folder dialog box (see Figure 92-1). Here you specify a name and location for the folder which will contain the files.

The document and the Printing Instructions report are always copied into the folder. However, you can choose which other items to include. You'll almost always want to use the default choices: copying the fonts, copying linked graphics, and updating the graphic links in the package. Choosing to update graphic links ensures that when your recipient opens the file, all the graphics will be linked and up-to-date. If your file has layers that are turned off (made invisible), turning on the Include Fonts and Links from Hidden Layers option ensures that required components from those layers are also copied. Turning on the Use Document Hyphenation Exceptions checkbox tells InDesign to embed your customized user dictionary in the document, ensuring that there will be no last minute text reflow problems.

When you're finished choosing options, click Package. If you are copying fonts, an alert from the Adobe Legal Department appears warning of the dangers of sending fonts to people who don't own them (as much as we respect the message, we sure wish we could disable this). Click OK to complete the packaging process.
