      Okay. Just wondering. If I put my entire calendar layout, front and back printing, in InDesign, if I hit print, will it print the whole calender even front and back at one time? My print does front and back.

      Is this a real thing, or am I just hoping blindly. I haven’t used the program before. I’m installing it right now.

          You can definitely do it! Might take some trial and error to get the settings right but I don't think it should be too hard

              When using InDesign, I'd recommend exporting your project to PDF before printing (and then print using Adobe Acrobat). In InDesign's export menu, you have a LOT of control in colors/bleeds/quality that you won't get just printing straight from InDesign.

                what for,at is your calendar in now? if you are creating a calendar remember your pages are not printed head to head but head to toe.

                You are just installing ID? It is a complex application with a decent sized learning curve.

                  @jimsz Yeah, InDesign can be tough to manage on first try. Of all the Adobe programs, I luckily used InDesign first because I worked at newspapers in college, but most of my graphic designer friends loathe it.

                    Thanks for the tips guys. Might need to do a few tutorials before I start messing with it on something real.
