  Photo appearance changes after being placed

  Posted by Mercedes Taylor on January 28, 2009 at 2:26 am

  I hope someone can please help me

  Im using CS4 and creating a magazine I have the
  Display at High Quality

  And I am trying to Place 314 DPI Tiffs
  that I have created in photoshop.

  They are high quality images and they look PERFECT on photoshop.
  I will attempt to put 10 photos of a model on 10 pages and 9 will work out perfect, at least 1 always comes out less then perfect.

  I wont say totally pixelated but it look like a picture would look if you sharpened it way to much.
  Every photo is saved the same and the same DPI and all of the others will look fine.

  And its funny when I scroll over to the photo and my mouse is pressed on the scroll bar is I pass that photo it will look perfect and when I let go of the scroll bar it goes back to looking aweful.

  But I see it perfect in photoshop and also in indesign when i scroll to it then before my eyes it changes back to a horrible photo.

  Im so scared it will print in the horrible form, although I know its a good photo.

  What am I doing wrong? how can i get the occasional messed up photo to show clear.

  Im using Indesign CS4
  in CMYK
  the Tiffs are 314DPI
  im placing them and making a photo box first neither way works.

  Thank you very much

  Mer
