Info palette View detailed information about the selected object. Like the Info palette found in other Adobe applications, the Info palette in Adobe InDesign CS displays information such as position, size, color swatch or values, and color space and profile. The Info palette also indicates image metadata, if present. 9 The Info palette provides useful information about an image, including image resolution. Significant for prepress providers, the Info palette indicates two resolution figures for a selected image: Actual ppi, the resolution of the image as it was saved in another application; and Effective ppi, which can be higher or lower than the Actual resolution if the image is scaled within Adobe InDesign CS. For example, if a designer imports an image that was saved at 300 dpi and scales it 200%, its effective resolution becomes 150 dpi. The Info palette reports horizontal and vertical resolutions, which can indicate non-proportional or anamorphic scaling. Stroke enhancements Overprint the gap color of dashed, dotted, or striped strokes, and control how strokes center over a path. When working with dotted, dashed, or striped strokes that use a gap color other than None, you can use the new Overprint Gap option on the Attributes palette to overprint the gap color over underlying colors. The Attributes palette features a new Overprint Gap option Dotted, dashed, and striped strokes color-separate in a specific way. For the purposes of color separation, think of the gap color not just as a gap, but as a continuous stroke of color behind the dots, dashes, or stripes. During color separation, the Overprint Gap option operates first on the gap color, then on the dots, dashes, or stripes. For example, if Overprint Stroke and Overprint Gap are both selected for a dashed line, the gap color overprints continuously along the entire length of the stroke, and then the stroke color overprints.
