Bitmap Images in Indesign

[jag1803]

I am experiencing issues with placed bitmaps in indesign. Prior Pagemaker MO - convert image to bitmap mode and save as tiff - place in pagemaker and voila - change any crummy logo into a resolution independent non-problem. - plus I could change the color to anything.

Now - I can place a bitmapped tif in indesign and the transparancy effect immediately works, but if I attempt to change the color it will only impact the color of the transparent background - if you inverse it (IN PSD) the non-object background will appear black...when placed in indesign you can then change the color of the targeted image - but you forsake the transparency.

Tried all transparency settings and blend modes - but can't seem to get this to work...

please help...

Are you using that cute white arrow tool or the cute black arrow tool when selecting the graphic to color?
