Navigating in a view
If the entire image is not visible in the view area,
you can navigate to bring another area of the
image into view. This is particularly useful when
working in 2-Up or 4-Up view. In ImageReady,
you can also use the Fit on Screen command to
view the entire image in the available space.

should be compressed as JPEG files. Illustrations
with flat color or sharp edges and crisp detail,
such as type, should be compressed as GIF or
PNG-8 files.
PNG-24 file format is suitable for continuous-tone
images. However, PNG-24 files are often much
larger than JPEG files of the same image. PNG-24
format is recommended only when working with a
