Question
Hi firstly thanks for this service I just stumbled across it and was really in need.

Im studying first year Graphic design, and teachers really think we are pro on all software =S My question is a simple one, After editing all my images and some graphics in Photoshop whats is the best format to save/export them to I can place them in in design. They sometimes show up all low res. Not when printing though.


Thanks for any info.
Kind regards
James Woods


INDESIGN v3.0.0.441

Answer
I would recommend saving in TIFF format (maybe also switch to CMYK before leaving last saving in Photoshop)

In Indesign, go to preferences/display performance where you can switch to high resolution display within the layout.  It could slow down the machine.
