Customize your Adobe PDF files with styles
page: 1 2
Change PDF settings.
For each panel, change the settings you want. Click Next or Previous to display different panels. For our copy-proofing style, we made only one change. On the PDF Options panel, we selected all three Omit options: EPS, PDF, and Bitmap Images.
When you're finished, click OK once to save your new style, and then click OK again to close the Define PDF Styles dialog box. The next time you create a PDF document from InDesign, your new styles will be available.

Export the InDesign document to PDF two times, once for each style.
Choose File > Export and specify a location for the first PDF file. Choose Adobe PDF from the Formats menu and save the file. From the Style menu of the Export PDF dialog box, choose one of the styles you created and export the file. Repeat this step using the other style.
05
View the two PDF files to see the differences between the styles.
Open the files in Adobe Acrobat® or Adobe Acrobat Reader®. Notice that in the copy-proofing version, omitted graphics appear as gray boxes.
Once you create PDF files for varied uses, you can incorporate those files into your workflow. For example, you can upload a screen-optimized version to a Web site for online review and electronic annotation (using the Acrobat Notes feature). You can also add a link in the Web version to a high-resolution version for printing.
