Hey this is driving me crazy and i dont know if it can be done but i really hope so... I have a book all laid out and now i have to put it together, now i dont want the text to get changed so in fear of this i changed all the text to outlines... After i did this the text seemed to be bolder, i was wondering if there is a way to keep the text to look the same as it did before i created the outlines but still be outlines if you know what i mean... if anyone can help me it would be great...

No there is no way to avoid this, it does bold up slightly when outlined.
By putting it together do you mean imposing it?

If you are using InDesign the best way I have found is to export the pages as EPS files and then re-import them into a new document for the imposition. I have done this for books up to 120 pages or so.

One you get started it goes quite fast and if you need changes just re-export to eps and then you can automatically update you imposition.


Hope that helps.

did it look bolder on screen or in print as well....its far more noticable on screen, but i find its barely noticible if at all when printed.
