DCS (preseparated) images and multitone images
The flattener requires composite data to process transparent areas correctly. Because DCS
images are preseparated, the flattener doesn't see them. DCS images will print correctly if
they don't interact with transparent objects.
To overcome DCS limitations, save your multitone images as EPS files.
Trapping
Flattening may convert vectors to rasterized areas. Traps applied to artwork in Adobe Illus-
trator using strokes and placed in InDesign will be preserved. However, traps applied to
vector artwork drawn in InDesign that becomes rasterized will be removed.
To keep as many objects vector as possible, select the [High Resolution] transparency
flattener style in the Advanced panel of the Print or export dialog boxes.
