No kidding. I wished I had never taken on this project by myself. Now I have sunken so deep, I have now way out. But on the bright side, when this project is over, I will be a much smarter person. At this moment, I am still at calibrating my monitor. I am reading Norman Koren's encyclopedia on...
There is a PostScript file in my printer. I never used it simply becasue I don't know how. In the PPD drop down menu

Okay, I have to admit that your tips are way advanced for me to digest. Let me ask you one question at a time.

Hello:
When a Missing Profile dialogue comes on, three choices are given:
Leave as is (don't color manage)
Assign profile (U.S. Web coated)

One more question: most of our photos and drawings were scanned in as RGB Jpeg. Shall I change each of them into CMYK and Tif before placing them into ID or shall I change it in the printer setting to CMYK before printing?
SOS. I changed all 3 apps' Color Settings to US Prepress and restarted the PC. When I opened the document I was working on, a dialogue box came on saying:
The document does not have an embedded RGB profile.
Leave as is (use current working space)
Assign current working Space: Adobe RGB 1998...
One more question:
Once I changed the color settings in the 3 apps, the changes will be applied to all the documents created prior to this day? If not, what shall I do?
Well, you just helped open a can of worms here. The color settings in these 3 apps were different. I went into each app and changed them all into North America General Purpose. Then many other questions come up.
1. What is the difference between North America and U. S. Prepress? Which one is...

I am disappointed with the result from placing photoes or drawings from Adobe photoshop or Illustrator into ID. The graphics are always distorted or less colorful. Would anyone give me some tips how to solve this problem?
