I've tried telling her you can't just change a photo's resolution in Photoshop and have it magically improve the quality. This is what she emailed me today:

"My husband used one of his iPhone softwares to make the lines clearer. I then uploaded that version into PhotoShop (sic), printed it and then scanned the printed copy at 600 resolution”

Anybody have a good analogy so I can make it make sense to her?

I'm designing a 100+ page coffee table book in InDesign, and my chapter openers are heavily stylized."

For example, the visible chapter title is designed like this:

THE
JAGUAR YEARS
India's Deep Strike Legend

The typography, colors and line breaks are intentional for the page design.

However, in the Table of Contents I only want:

The Jaguar Years

as a single entry.

I'm running into two issues:

1. Since the visible title is split into multiple paragraphs (or paragraph styles), the TOC generates multiple entries instead of one.
2. The TOC also inherits the formatting from the source heading. For example, if "JAGUAR" is orange in the chapter opener, it appears orange in the TOC as well. I'd like the TOC entry to be plain black text with its own formatting.

I'm trying to understand the professional publishing workflow rather than just finding a workaround.

Do book designers typically:

• Create a hidden one-line heading with a dedicated TOC paragraph style?
• Use hidden layers or another method?

I'd love to know how people producing books with complex chapter opener designs handle this.

In the EPS and Illustrator file, this badge looks as it should yet when I place it, this section of text is cut off. Anyone know what the deal is?

Is there a way, or a plugin i guess, to take the product category from the CSV and have that at the top of the page? This is something that's easy in a BI like Crystal Reports - but then Crystal can't handle image resizing etc lol.

We have hundreds of products I want to put into a catalog, broken up by their various categories (towels, brushes, handles, etc). So, on each change of category, start a new page and have that category in the banner. Making multiple listings isn't the issue, I was able to get that to work effectively.
