Hi, can anyone please help me! Have a large InDesign document containing FP (full page) and DPS (double page spreads). The FP ads and the DPS ads both contain the same image placed in the background, however when the ads are viewed on screen and printed the colours are different between the two!
Thanks guys
james
 
Are they the same exact image? For instance, are you placing something like "image.tiff" in a picture box on both the FP and DP and then scaling the image down for the FP (but hopefully not UP for DP)

If yes, this seems rather mystifying.

If you're using 2 versions of the image - scaled in an image editing program, try opening the one you're using for the DP and Save As and then scale that down to fit FP. Or try just try scaling the DP image in the picture box on the FP pages.

I'm assuming that you have not made any transparency settings in Indesign.
